This website uses cookies to enhance functionality and performance. They help us deliver a smooth browsing experience and support ongoing improvements to the site.
What is a cookie?
Cookies are small text files automatically stored on your computer, smartphone, or other device when you visit a website or use an application. They enable the website or app to recognise visitors. The information saved in a cookie may relate to your browsing behaviour or include a unique identifier so the site can remember you on future visits.
How are cookies used?
Cookies serve several purposes, such as enabling smooth navigation between pages, retaining your browsing preferences, and measuring how you use the site so we can ensure it meets your needs. They also help tailor content and advertisements to better match your interests, improving your overall experience.
The cookies that we use can be split into the following categories:
- Strictly necessary cookies. These cookies are essential for the website to function. For example, they include cookies that allow you to sign in to secure areas of the site.
- Analytical/performance cookies. These enable us to identify and tally visitors and observe how they navigate the site. This information helps us enhance site performance and ensures users can find what they need easily.
- Functionality cookies. These remember you when you return to the site, allowing us to personalise content, welcome you by name and retain your preferences (for instance, language or region choices).
- Third party cookies. These are placed by external sites whose services are integrated into our website. Examples include social sharing buttons that enable you to post content to social networks. Such cookies help those third parties identify which pages were viewed, which links or ads were clicked and other actions you performed on those pages, as well as the referring site before you reached their page.
- Targeted Email Marketing. These cookies log your visits to the site, the pages you viewed and the links you clicked. We may share this data with third parties (see our Privacy Policy for more information on how we handle the information we collect). Some marketing communications may be personalised based on your past browsing, downloads and/or purchases on our site. This helps us deliver marketing materials that are more relevant to you and avoid content that is unlikely to interest you.
If you wish to withdraw your consent to our use of cookies at any time, you should remove your cookies using your browser settings. In addition, your browser or device may offer controls that let you choose whether cookies are set. For guidance on these controls, consult your browser or device help documentation. Some parts of the site may not operate correctly if browser cookie use is disabled.
