This cookie policy explains what cookies are, how we use them on this website and how you can manage your cookie preferences.
What Are Cookies
Cookies are small text files that are stored on your device when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites work more efficiently, provide a better user experience and give website operators information about how their sites are being used.
Cookies can be session cookies, which are deleted when you close your browser, or persistent cookies, which remain on your device for a set period or until you delete them.
How We Use Cookies
We use cookies for several purposes on this website. These include ensuring the website functions correctly, remembering your preferences, understanding how you use our site and improving our content and services.
Types of Cookies We Use
Essential Cookies
These cookies are necessary for the website to function properly. They enable basic features such as page navigation and access to secure areas. The website cannot function properly without these cookies, and they cannot be disabled.
Analytics Cookies
We use analytics cookies to understand how visitors interact with our website. These cookies collect information about which pages are visited most often, how long visitors spend on pages, and whether any error messages are encountered. This information helps us improve the website and user experience.
Analytics data is collected in aggregate form and does not identify individual visitors. We may use third-party analytics services that set their own cookies.
Functional Cookies
Functional cookies allow the website to remember choices you make, such as your preferred settings or previously viewed content. These cookies provide enhanced, more personalised features.
Advertising and Tracking Cookies
We may allow third-party advertising networks to place cookies on our website. These cookies may be used to build a profile of your interests and show you relevant advertisements on other websites. They work by uniquely identifying your browser and device.
Third-Party Cookies
Some cookies on our website are set by third-party services. These may include analytics providers, advertising networks and social media platforms. Third-party cookies are governed by the respective privacy policies of those third parties.
When you click links to external websites, those sites may also set their own cookies. We have no control over cookies set by external websites.
Managing Cookies
Most web browsers allow you to control cookies through their settings. You can typically set your browser to block all cookies, accept all cookies, or notify you when a cookie is set so you can decide whether to accept it.
Please note that blocking certain cookies may affect your experience on this website and limit the functionality available to you.
Browser Settings
You can manage cookies through your browser settings. Instructions for common browsers are available on their respective support pages:
Opt-Out Tools
For advertising cookies, you may be able to opt out through industry opt-out tools such as the Your Online Choices website, which provides a central location to manage advertising preferences across participating companies.
Do Not Track
Some browsers offer a Do Not Track setting that sends a signal to websites requesting that your browsing activity not be tracked. Currently, there is no consistent industry standard for responding to Do Not Track signals, and our website may not respond to such signals.
Cookie Retention
The length of time a cookie remains on your device depends on whether it is a session cookie or a persistent cookie. Session cookies are deleted when you close your browser. Persistent cookies remain until they expire or you delete them. Analytics cookies typically have retention periods ranging from a few months to two years.
Changes to This Policy
We may update this cookie policy from time to time to reflect changes in technology, legislation or our practices. The date at the top of this page indicates when the policy was last revised.
