Cookies are small files stored on your computer, phone or other device by a website. Similar technologies, including local storage, can remember settings in your browser. Session cookies support a visit; persistent cookies remain until they expire or you remove them.
The cookies and storage we use
Necessary cookies
The website uses a session cookie to support features such as contact forms, room-hire enquiries and request security. These features may not work if you block the session cookie. The cookie identifies a session; it does not contain the message you type into a form.
Language and accessibility preferences
When you choose English or Somali, the website can remember that choice using the israac-lang cookie and browser local storage. The language cookie can last up to one year. Accessibility controls can remember choices such as reading colours, zoom, text style and motion in local storage. These preferences remain until changed or cleared in your browser.
Videos and external services
Video previews are stored on our website. Choosing to play a video loads YouTube’s privacy-enhanced player and connects your browser to Google/YouTube. That service may use cookies or similar storage and receive information about your device and viewing activity. You can choose not to play a video. Read Google’s Privacy Policy and information about Google cookies.
Links to social media, maps and other websites take you to services with their own cookies and privacy policies. We have not added an advertising or analytics tracker to this website.
Your choices regarding cookies
You can use your browser settings to inspect, block or delete cookies and clear local storage. Blocking all cookies may prevent forms from working, and clearing storage resets remembered language and accessibility choices. Your browser’s help pages explain how to manage website data.
Changes to this policy
We may update this policy as the website changes. The date above shows when it was last revised.
