What are cookies?

Cookies are small, harmless text files which a website may put on your computer or mobile device when you first visit a site or page. The cookie will help the website, or another website, to recognise your device the next time you visit. Web beacons or other similar files can also do the same thing. The term “cookies” in this policy is used to refer to all files that collect information in this way.
There are many functions cookies serve. For example, they can help to remember preferences, analyse how well the website is performing, or even allow to recommend content relevant to you.

How are cookies used?

Like many websites, cookies are used to store and then retrieve small bits of information on your computer when you visit. This information is used to make the site work as you expect it to. It is not personally identifiable to you, but it can be used to give you a more personalised web experience.
Some of the information stored is put there by other companies whose software has been added to the site, and this can also impact your experience of other websites you may visit after leaving this site.
If you continue to use this site without taking action to prevent the storage of this information, you are effectively agreeing to this use. If you want to learn more about the general uses of cookies, including how to stop them being stored by your computer, please visit allaboutcookies.org
