What are cookies?
Cookies are small text files that get stored on your device’s browser or hard drive whenever you visit the Site. This enables the Site to identify you as a user during your visit (with a ‘session cookie’) or for subsequent visits (with a ‘persistent cookie’).

The types of cookies we employ are categorised into four main types:
Strictly Necessary Cookies
These cookies are indispensable in facilitating your navigation of our Site and utilization of its features, such as accessing secure website areas. Without these cookies, services you request, like setting up an account, cannot be fulfilled. These cookies do not gather data about you for marketing purposes or keep track of your internet usage.
Analytical/Performance Cookies
To ensure the Site and its services and products stay relevant and user-friendly, we use web analytics services to help us understand how people use the Site. For instance, we can identify the most popular parts of the Site and products, recognize when errors occur, and test different page or feature versions to identify the most effective one.
Functionality Cookies
These cookies allow websites and applications to remember your choices (such as your username, language or the region you are in) and provide enhanced, more personalized features. They usually anonymize the data they collect, meaning we can’t identify you personally. They don’t gather information for advertising sales or to keep track of your internet usage, but they do assist us in providing more relevant advertising to you.

These cookies can be used to aid in targeted advertising. Without them, any online advertisements you encounter will be less relevant to you and your interests. They can also be used to gauge the effectiveness of our marketing communications, for instance by informing us if you have responded to an advert we have sent you.
