Cookies Policy

This page is part of our Privacy Policy and describes the use of cookies on our website. Most websites you visit will use cookies to improve your user experience by enabling that website to 'remember' you, either for the duration of your visit (using a 'session cookie') or for repeat visits (a 'persistent cookie'). This policy explains how we use this. Some websites will also use cookies to enable them to target their advertising or marketing messages based on, for example, your location and/or browsing habits.

1. What is a cookie?

Cookies are small data files (usually numbers and letters) that a website places on your computer or mobile device when you first visit us. The cookie will help that website, or another website, to recognize your device the next time you visit us. In this policy, we use the term "cookies" to refer to all files that collect information in this way.

Cookies do lots of different jobs, like making it easier to browse the site, storing your preferences, and generally improving your experience of a website. Cookies make the interaction between you and a website faster and easier. If a website doesn't use cookies, it will think you're a new visitor every time you go to a new page on the site — for example, when you enter your username and password and go to another page, it won't recognise you and you won't be able to stay logged in.

Some cookies contain personal information — for example, if you click “remember me” when logging in, a cookie will store your username. Most cookies will not collect information that identifies you, but rather more general information: how a user arrives at a website, what they do with it, or where a user lives.

2. How do we use cookies?

Cookies allow us to identify your device, or you, when you have logged in. We use cookies that are strictly necessary to enable you to move around the site or to provide certain basic features. We use cookies to improve the functionality of the website by, for example, storing your preferences. We also use cookies to improve the performance of our website to provide you with a better user experience.

For the avoidance of doubt, we do not use cookies to retrieve personal information about you.

You can also delete cookies that have already been installed. If you wish to limit or block the installation of cookies on your device, you can do so through your browser settings.
