What Are Cookies?

We use cookies on our website. The specific names and types of the cookies, web beacons, and other similar technologies we use may change from time to time. In order to help you better understand this Policy and our use of those technologies we have provided the following limited terminology and definitions:

·       Cookies – Small text files (typically made up of letters and numbers) placed in the memory of your browser or device when you visit a website or view a message.  Cookies are then sent back to the originating web domain on your subsequent visits to that domain and allow the website to recognize your particular device or browser.  Most web pages contain elements from multiple web domains so that when you visit the website, your browser may receive cookies from several sources.  Cookies allow you to navigate between pages efficiently, remember preferences and generally improve the user experience.  They can also be used to tailor advertising to your interests through tracking your browsing across websites.  There are several types of cookies:

o    Session cookies expire at the end of your browser session and allow us to link your actions during that particular browser session.

o    Persistent cookies are stored on your device in between browser sessions, allowing us to remember your preferences or actions across multiple sites.

o    First-party cookies are set by the site you are visiting.

o    Third-party cookies are set by a third party site separate from the site you are visiting.  We try to provide more information about each third party cookie in our Cookies Centre.

We try and set out the likely retention period of the data in each cookie in the Cookies Centre too.

We may use the terms "cookies" or "similar technologies" interchangeably in our policies to refer to all technologies that we may use to store data in your browser or device or that collect information or help us identify you.
