What are cookies?
Businesses collect information about your use of their website through cookies. Cookies are information files stored on your computer, tablet or smartphone that help websites remember who you are and information about your visit. Cookies can help to display the information on a website in a way that matches your interests. This website does not use cookies, however some Third Parties may do so. Please see our "Third Party Cookies" section below.
What types of cookies are there?
Cookies can broadly be grouped into the following categories:
Essential – Some of the cookies are essential to be able to provide you with a service you have requested. An example of this would be a cookie used to enable you to log into your account on a website or which allows communication between your browser and the website. A cookie preference cookie described in the section "How can I reject or opt out of receiving cookies?" is also an essential cookie. You may not be able to use a website without these cookies.
Analytics – Analytics cookies help to understand how users engage with a website. An example is counting the number of different people coming to a website or using a particular feature, rather than the total number of times the site or feature is used. Without this cookie, if you visited a website once each week for three weeks you would count as three separate users. It would be difficult to analyse how well a website was performing and improve it without these cookies.
Social Sharing – Social Sharing cookies allow you to share content directly on the social networking/sharing sites like Facebook, Twitter or Google+. Examples would be if you wanted to "like" or "tweet" about a business or product advertised on a website.
Interest-Based Advertising – You will have noticed that when you visit websites you will be shown adverts for products and services you may wish to buy. The money made by website owners for showing third party adverts on their websites often pays for the cost of running the website and therefore usually allows you to use the website without having to pay a registration or usage fee. Many businesses may place adverts on a range of associated websites. However, to try and ensure that the adverts you see are relevant they may use cookies to collect information about the types of things that interest you, for example websites you visit and the geography that you are based in. Having these cookies does not increase the number of adverts you will be shown, but simply makes the adverts you see more relevant.
How can I reject or opt out of receiving cookies?
When you first visit a website you will have been shown a message bar drawing your attention to the fact that the website uses cookies and inviting you to review the cookie policy to help manage your cookie preferences. If you do not manage your preferences despite this prompt a cookie preference cookie will be dropped confirming that you consent to us using the cookies detailed in this cookie policy, this cookie preference cookie will last for no more than 5 years.
Please note that we can't always control third party cookies stored on your machine from our website and where this is the case you will need to visit the relevant third party's website directly to manage cookies stored on your machine by them. Please see our "Third Party Cookies" section below.
If you want to reject cookies you will need to:
- delete the cookies from your browser. Most browsers also allow you to prevent all or some cookies being stored on your machine in the future. For more information on how to delete or disable cookies from your browser please use the "help" function within your browser or alternatively visit www.allaboutcookies.org. By deleting a cookie preference cookie the next time you visit that website the cookie message bar will appear again inviting you to again reconsider your preferences; and/or
