Essential cookies
Essential cookies are required for BlinkSync to function. They keep you logged in and remember your cookie preference. These cannot be disabled without breaking core functionality.
We do not require consent for essential cookies under UK PECR regulations, as they are strictly necessary for the service you have requested.

Google Analytics does not collect your name, email, transaction data, or any financial information. IP addresses are anonymised.
