Please take a moment to read and understand this Cookie Policy. This Cookie Policy should also be read in conjunction with our Privacy Policy.
What are cookies?
Cookies and similar technologies are very small text documents or pieces of code, which often include an anonymous unique identifier and which are used by websites to make a user's experience more efficient. When you visit a website or use a mobile application, a computer asks your computer or mobile device for permission to store this file on your computer or mobile device and access information from it. Information gathered through cookies and similar technologies may include the date and time of visits and how you are using the particular website or mobile application.
The law states that we can store cookies on your device if they are strictly necessary for the operation of this Site. For all other types of cookies we need your permission.
Why do we use cookies?
We use first and third party cookies on our Site and in our emails.
First party cookies are cookies placed by us to collect information about you. However, certain cookies available on our Site and in our emails are placed by third party website operators.
We use cookies to personalise content and ads, to provide social media features and to analyse our traffic. We also share information about your use of our Site with our social media, advertising and analytics partners who may combine it with other information that you’ve provided to them or that they’ve collected from your use of their services. Please refer to the relevant third party website operator’s privacy notice for more information about how they may use such information.
How long do cookies last?
All cookies have expiration dates that determine how long they stay in your browser:
Session cookies: These are temporary cookies that expire (and are automatically erased) whenever you close your browser.
Persistent cookies: These usually have an expiration date and will stay in your browser until they expire, or until you manually delete them.
What types of cookies are used on this Site and how are they used?
We use the following types of cookies on our Site:
Necessary cookies: These cookies are necessary to provide you with services available through the Site.
Analytics cookies: These cookies collect information that is used either in aggregate form to help us understand how the Site is being used or how effective marketing campaigns are, or to help us customise the Site for you.
Preference cookies: These cookies allow the Site to remember information that changes the way the Site behaves or looks, such as your preferred language or the region you are in. Loss of information stored in a preference cookie may make the experience less functional but should not prevent it from working.
Marketing cookies: These cookies are used to make advertising messages more relevant to you. They perform functions like preventing the same advert from continuously reappearing, ensuring that adverts are properly displayed for advertisers, and in some cases selecting adverts that are based on your interests.
For further details about the types of cookies that we use on our Site, please refer to Appendix A below.
Cookies used in emails
Please note that any emails you receive from us may contain cookies or similar technologies to help us to see if recipients have opened an email and understand how recipients have interacted with it. Once you click on an email that contains a cookie, your contact information may subsequently be cross-referenced to the source email and/or the relevant cookie. If you have enabled images, cookies may be set on your computer or mobile device. Cookies will also be set if you click on any link within the email.
If you do not wish to accept cookies from any one of our emails, simply close the email before downloading any images or clicking on any links. You can also set your browser to restrict cookies or to reject them entirely. These settings will apply to all cookies whether included on websites or in emails.
In some instances, depending on your email or browser settings, cookies in an email may be automatically accepted (for example, when you've added an email address to your address book or safe senders list). Please refer to your email browser or device instructions for more information on this.
