Cookies

What are cookies?

Cookies are small text files that are stored in your computer’s memory and hard drive when you visit certain web pages. They are used to enable websites to function or to provide information to the owners of a website.

Why do we use cookies?

Cookies help us to provide customised services and information. For example, we use cookies on the Website to collect anonymous traffic data and also to improve your experience with the Website.

In broad terms, we use cookies on our Website for the following purposes:

Analytical purposes

• We use analytical cookies that allow us to recognise, measure and track visitors to the website. This helps us to improve and develop the way the Website works, for example, by determining whether site visitors can find information easily, or by identifying the aspects of the Website that are of the most interest to them. For these purposes, we may store the following:

• the name of the domain from which you accessed the internet
• the date and time you accessed the Website
• the advert or internet address of the Website from which you linked directly to the website
• the pages you accessed while visiting the Website

• the device from which you accessed the Website
• the location from which you accessed the Website

Usage preferences

• Some of the cookies on the Website are activated when visitors make a choice about their usage of the Website. The Website then ‘remembers’ the settings preferences of the user concerned. This allows us to tailor aspects of the Website to the individual user. 

Session management

• The software that runs the Website uses cookies for technical purposes needed by the internal workings of our servers and application. For instance, we use cookies to keep track of information about a user’s session and determine which options or pages to display in order for the site to function.

Functional purposes

• Functional purpose cookies store information that is needed by our applications to process and operate. For example, where requests within an application involve multiple stages, cookies are used to store the information from each stage temporarily, in order to facilitate completion of the overall request.

Third party cookies

• When you visit the Website, you may receive cookies that are set by Google and HotJar. These cookies are used for the purposes described above.
• For more information about Google Analytics and cookies (including information on how to opt out), please check Google’s Privacy Policy  and information on installing the  Google Analytics opt-out browser add-on.
• For more information about Hotjar and cookies, including information on how to opt out, please refer to Hotjar’s Privacy Policy  

Your cookie preferences

• To make full use of the Website, your computer or mobile device will need to accept cookies, as the Website will not function properly without them. In addition, cookies are required in order to provide you with personalised features on the Website.

Amending cookie preferences

• If you wish to remove cookies set by the Website on your browser in the future, you may delete them. The instructions for removing cookies from your computer or mobile device depend on the operating system and web browser you use. Please note, however, that withdrawing your agreement to the use of cookies on this Website will impair the functionality of the Website.
