Our site uses cookies. For further information on how we use, store, and keep your personal data secure. In this policy, we will refer to cookies and all similar technologies by simply using the term “cookie or cookies”.
2. TYPES OF COOKIES
Cookies are small text files that are used to store small pieces of information. They are stored on your device when the website is loaded on your browser. These cookies help us make the website function properly, make it more secure, provide better user experience, and understand how the website performs and to analyse what works and where it needs improvement.
Cookies can be grouped into the following types:
- Strictly Necessary Cookies: Some cookies are essential for the operation of the site.
- Performance Cookies: are used to analyse how people use the site and to monitor site performance.
- Functionality Cookies: are used to allow us to remember your preferences for helpful features, such as providing the site in a different language.
- Marketing Cookies: are used to help in providing users with adverts that are relevant to them by collecting information about their browsing habits and site usage. They can also be used to allow third parties to display relevant and personalised ads to users through their networks, to measure the effectiveness of advertising campaigns and to limit the number of times you see the same advert.
- Social Media Cookies: allow users to interact more easily with social media, such as Facebook and Instagram. We do not control social media cookies and they do not allow us to gain access to your social media accounts. Please refer to the relevant social media platform’s privacy policies for information about their cookies
- Google Analytics: is a cookie-based web analysis service provided by Google Inc, which we use to monitor how visitors use our site, to compile usage reports and to help us improve the site.
3. COOKIES WE USE
Session cookies only remain until you close your browser and ‘Persistent’ cookies will have a set end date, but that will vary.
- Strictly necessary cookies (and exempt from consent): Session cookie.
- Analytics cookies (in theory exempt from consent as equivalent to strictly necessary cookies. We have decided to request consent.) Google Analytics uses the following cookies (_ga, _gid, _gat). Even if they are analytics cookies, they are
comparable to technical cookies (and therefore exempt from consent)
because they are used only to produce aggregated statistics and in
relation to a single web site and the IP addresses (at least the fourth
component) are masked and do not combine with other information for
further processing. Please see Google’s privacy policy for further
information. If you prefer not to have data reported by Google
Analytics, you can install the Google Analytics Opt-Out Browser Add-On.
You may also opt out of Google’s use of tracking technologies by
visiting the Google advertising opt-out page.
- Marketing cookies: The site does NOT use these profiling cookies so no consent is required.
