Cookie Policy

This website uses cookies. We use essential cookies to make our site work. We'd also like to set other cookies to personalise content and analyse our traffic. These will be set only if you accept.

What are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files containing information sent by a web server to a web browser, and are stored on your computer, tablet or mobile phone, when you visit certain web pages. The information is then sent back to the server each time the browser requests a page from the server. This enables the web server to identify and track the web browser.

Our website uses the following categories of cookies:

‘Session Cookies’ – these keep track of you while you navigate our website, and will be deleted from your computer when you close your browser.

‘Persistent Cookies’ – these enable our website to recognise you when you visit, and they remain stored on your computer until deleted, or until they reach a specified expiry date. They enable us to remember details such as your preferences and enable us to give you a better service.

We also use Google Analytics, a very popular tool used to analyse site usage and traffic, which utilises cookies. This helps us to refine the site content and give you the best experience on our website. This information is only processed in a way which does not identify anyone. We do not make, and do not allow Google to make, any attempt to find out the identities of those visiting our website.
