What are cookies?
A cookie is a small text file which is placed onto your device (eg computer, smartphone or other electronic device) when you use our website. We use cookies on our website.
We may use cookies on our website for security and online tracking purposes, to facilitate navigation, better display information, monitor the success of our services and advertising campaigns, and to deliver more relevant advertising throughout your online experience. We also use cookies to gather information about your use of our services. We do this to improve the user experience and the design and functionality of our services.
We use cookies to compile visitor statistics such as how many people have visited our website, what type of technology they are using (e.g. Mac or Windows which helps to identify when our site isn't working as it should for particular technologies), how long they spend on our website, what pages they look at etc. This helps us to continuously improve our website. These so called “analytics” programs also tell us how people reached our website (e.g. from a search engine) and whether they have been here before helping us to put more money into developing our services for you instead of marketing spend.
For further information on our use of cookies, including a detailed list of your information which we may collect through cookies, please see below.
