What cookies and local storage are
Cookies are small text files placed by a website or service. This website also uses local storage, a similar browser feature, to remember your choices on your own device. In this policy we call all of these “cookies” for simplicity.

Remember your cookie decision so we do not ask repeatedly.
Preferences
Theme, language, accessibility settings, shortlists and reading lists.
Embedded media
Google Maps and YouTube, which may set their own cookies.
Not used
No advertising cookies and no analytics trackers.

Third-party services
These services are loaded from other companies and may set cookies according to their own policies:
| Service | Used for | Learn more |
|---|---|---|
| Google Maps | Office location map in the footer | policies.google.com |
| YouTube (nocookie mode) | Videos you choose to play | policies.google.com |
| jsDelivr | Hosting of Bootstrap and icon files | jsdelivr.com |
| Google Fonts | Ethiopic font when Amharic is selected | policies.google.com |
If you choose Reject non-essential, the footer map is replaced by a button that loads it only when you press it.
Managing your choices
Use Cookie settings in the footer at any time to change your choices. You can also delete stored data in your browser settings. Blocking all storage may mean that preferences are not remembered.
