Information about our use of cookies
Our Site uses cookies to provide you with a good browsing experience, identify you when you return to our Site, save site log in information for you and generally improve our Site while allowing us to improve our Site.
A cookie is a small file of letters and numbers that we store on your browser or the hard drive of your computer if you agree. Cookies may contain information that is transferred to your computer’s hard drive.
The two main categories of cookies used are: session cookies and persistent cookies. Session cookies are created temporarily in your browsers subfolder when you visit a website. They only last for as long as the session and are deleted when you leave. Persistent cookies remain in your browser's subfolder but are reactivated when you revisit the website that placed them so you can be recognized on your return.
Third parties such as our service providers may also use cookies on our Site to help us provide our services, and for Site analysis and research.
More specifically, we use cookies and other tracking technologies for the following purposes:
-
Strictly necessary cookies. These cookies are necessary for the website to function and cannot be switched off in our systems. They are usually only set in response to actions made by you which amount to a request for services, such as setting your privacy preferences, logging in or filling in forms. You can set your browser to block or alert you about these cookies, but some parts of the Site will not then work. These cookies do not store any personally identifiable information.
-
Analytical/performance cookies. These cookies allow us to count visits and traffic sources so we can measure and improve the performance of our Site. They help us to know which pages are the most and least popular and see how visitors move around the Site. All information these cookies collect is aggregated and therefore anonymous. If you do not allow these cookies we will not know when you have visited our Site, and will not be able to monitor its performance.
-
Functionality cookies. These cookies enable the website to provide enhanced functionality and personalization. They may be set by us or by third party providers whose services we have added to our pages. If you do not allow these cookies then some or all of these services may not function properly.
-
Targeting cookies. These cookies may be set through our Site by our advertising partners. They may be used by those companies to build a profile of your interests and show you relevant advertisements on other sites. They do not directly store personal information but are based on uniquely identifying your browser and internet device. If you do not allow these cookies, you will experience less targeted advertising.
Third-party cookies from third party websites
Third party cookies are cookies that are set by a domain other than the one you are visiting. You may access third party websites through ours and, if so, these third parties may also use cookies over which we have no control. Such third parties will most likely have their own privacy notice(s) and cookies statement(s) where you can find further information.
