Our Use of Cookies
Every browser that visits our website receives cookies from us. Unless the cookies we use are strictly necessary for the provision of the website, we will ask you to consent to the use of cookies on your first visit to our website.
We use cookies on our website because we want to provide our users with the best possible experience. Information provided through cookies enables us to optimise your experience on our website.
Cookies do not normally contain information that can personally identify a user. However, personal information that we store about you may be linked to information stored in and obtained from cookies. You can learn more about what personal data is processed in relation to our users in our Privacy Policy.
About Cookies
Cookies are small text files that are placed on your device by websites you visit. They allow the website to remember your actions and preferences over a period of time, such as login details, language, font size, and other display preferences, so you do not have to re-enter them each time you return to the website or browse from one page to another.
The use of cookies helps you navigate efficiently between pages, remembers your settings, and otherwise improves your browsing experience. Cookies can also help ensure that the marketing you see online is relevant to you and your interests.
Other technologies, including data that we store on your web browser or device, associated with your device, and other software are used for similar purposes. In this policy, we refer to all these technologies as “cookies”.
Cookie Classification by Lifespan
Session cookies are deleted when the user closes the browser. Session cookies last only as long as the session, which is typically the current visit to a website or a browser session.
Persistent cookies remain on the user’s computer or device for a predefined period of time, unless they are deleted by the user before the expiry date. Persistent cookies help us to recognise you so that it is easier to return to our website or interact with our service without having to log in again or change settings every time. After you log in, a persistent cookie remains in your browser and will be read again when you return to our website.
Cookie Classification by Domain
First-party cookies are set by the web server of the visited page and belong to the same domain.
Third-party cookies are stored in a domain different from the visited page. This can happen when the website references a file, such as JavaScript, that is located outside its domain.
Cookie Classification by Storage Location
Browser cookies are sent from a website and stored in the user’s browser.
Flash cookies are stored locally on the user’s device and can be used independently of the browser.
