Cookie Policy
A cookie is a small file of letters and numbers that is sent to your computer or mobile phone (referred to here as a "device") browser from a website's computer and is stored on your device's hard drive. These cookies allow us to distinguish you from other users of our website, which helps us to provide you with a good experience when you browse our website and also allows us to improve our service.
Each website can send its own cookie to your browser if your browser's preferences allow it, but (to protect your privacy) your browser only permits a website to access the cookies it has already sent to you, not the cookies sent to you by other websites. Many websites do this whenever a user visits their website in order to track online traffic flows.

Our website uses four different types of cookies. We use cookies to understand how users interact with our website, to measure the effectiveness of advertising on third party sites and to provide a seamless service when you use our website.
We also use third party cookie providers to assist us in providing you with a better service and to help us analyse our customer behaviour. All third parties are under strict confidentiality obligations and are restricted from using any information for their own business or other purposes. If you visit a page on one of our websites one or more of the cookie types set out below may be generated.
Log-in cookies
When you log-in to the website we generate cookies that inform us when you log-in and log-out. Our servers use these cookies to work out which account you are signed in with, and if you are allowed access to a particular service.
We also use cookies to keep information such as your language and other preferences. All cookies are temporary as they are session cookies. Once the session is closed or expired, so are the cookies.
When you opt-in to us saving your account information these cookies instruct us to pre-populate the User ID field with your email address when you return to the log-in page.
Site performance cookies
We may generate cookies to assist with site performance. Some examples are:
- Balancing the load of users between our different servers to maximise user experience.
- Using third party cookies to enable you to input information on one page and move to another page while our website remembers your information, so that there is a seamless service (e.g. using log-in only pages).
- Remembering video streaming speeds which are compatible with your browser.
Anonymous tracking cookies:
When you visit our website an anonymous tracking cookie is generated by a third party web analytics software provider to inform us whether or not you have visited our site before. This allows us to track how many individual unique users we have, and how often they visit our website. Unless you are signed into the website, these cookies cannot be used to identify individuals; they are used for statistical purposes only.
Third party cookies
In some cases we use third party advertising cookies which allow us to understand and improve the effectiveness of our advertising on both our own and third party websites.
