How We Use Cookies

 

We use cookies for various purposes, including:

 

1. Essential Cookies: These cookies are necessary for our website to function and enable you to navigate and use its features. We can't switch them off. You can set your browser to block these cookies, but this will mean our website won't work as well.

2. Performance and Analytics Cookies: We use these cookies to collect information about how visitors use our website, such as the number of visitors, pages visited, and the source of the visit. All information these cookies collect is aggregated and, therefore, anonymous. This data helps us improve the performance and user experience of our website. If you don't allow these cookies, we won't know when you've visited or how you've reached our website or be able to monitor its performance.

3. Personalisation Cookies: These cookies allow our website to remember your choices (such as language preferences or font size) and provide enhanced, personalised features. You'll get a less personalised experience on our websites if you don't allow these cookies.

4. Targeting cookies: These cookies are used by our advertising partners (e.g. Facebook) to collect information about how you use our website and show you associated adverts on other sites. The information used to build that profile may also be used to find other people with similar interests to yours so that our adverts can be shown to them, too. We don't share your contact details or similar information with our advertising partners, but information that uniquely identifies your browser and internet device will be shared. If you do not allow these cookies, you will experience less targeted advertising.

5. Third-Party Cookies: We may also allow third-party service providers to place cookies on our website to collect information about your online activities over time and across different websites. These cookies are subject to the respective third parties' privacy policies.
