INFORMATION ABOUT OUR USE OF COOKIES

​

A cookie is a small file of letters and numbers that we store on your browser or the hard drive of your computer if you agree. Cookies contain information that is transferred to your computer's hard drive.

​

We use the following cookies:

​

• Strictly necessary cookies.                                                                                             
  These are cookies that are required for the operation of our website. They include, for example, cookies that enable you to log into secure areas of our website.
   

• Analytical/performance cookies.                                                                                   
  They allow us to recognise and count the number of visitors and to see how visitors move around our website when they are using it. This helps us to improve the way our website works, for example, by ensuring that users are finding what they are looking for easily.
   

• Functionality cookies.                                                                                                    
  These are used to recognise you when you return to our website. This enables us to personalise our content for you, greet you by name and remember your preferences (for example, your choice of language or region).
   

• Targeting cookies.     
                                                                                                      
  These cookies record your visit to our website, the pages you have visited and the links you have followed. We will use this information to make our website and the advertising displayed on it more relevant to your interests. We may also share this information with third parties for this purpose.
   

Please note that third parties (including, for example, advertising networks and providers of external services like web traffic analysis services) may also use cookies, over which we have no control and we cannot accept any liability for the third party’s compliance with its legal obligations.

These cookies are likely to be analytical/performance cookies or targeting cookies:
 

• Advertising cookies can be de-activated by visiting the consumer page to manage the use of these types of cookies
   

• You block cookies by activating the setting on your browser that allows you to refuse the setting of all or some cookies. However, if you use your browser settings to block all cookies (including essential cookies) you may not be able to access all or parts of our site.
   

• Cookies will be deleted automatically once they have reached the expiration date. Cookies typically expire somewhere between 30 and 90 days but at times these can be shorter or longer.
   

• You should also be aware that there are cookies which are found in other companies' internet tools which we may use to enhance the website. You may see ‘social buttons’ during your use of the website, including but not limited to Twitter and Facebook, which enable you to share or bookmark certain web pages.  These websites have their own cookies, which are controlled by them.
