ABOUT THIS POLICY
This Cookie Policy tells you what to expect when our website collects personal information. It applies to the information we collect about our visitors, and those who login to our website.
WHAT ARE COOKIES?
A ‘cookie’ is a small text file that is delivered by our website server onto your computer whilst you visit our website, which can subsequently be used by the website to identify individual devices and thereby remember your website preferences and login details. Most cookies will not collect information that identifies you and instead will collect more general information such as how you arrived at and used our website, or your general geographical location.
WHY ARE COOKIES NEEDED?
Cookies make websites work better and they are a standard part of most modern websites. For example, they remember the items you’ve placed in your online shopping cart so that the items appear at the checkout when you make your purchase. Another example would be when you login to webmail services such as Hotmail or Gmail: on such occasions a cookie is generated that confirms you are logged in and when you log off, the cookie is deleted. This means if someone goes back to your webmail address on your computer, you will still be logged out – and they won’t be able to read your emails.

These cookies do not gather information about you that could be used for marketing purposes, and they do not remember when you have been on the internet.

Third Party Cookies
Third-party cookies are set by a domain other than the one the user is visiting. This typically occurs when the website incorporates elements from other sites, such as images, social media plugins or advertising. When the browser or other software fetches these elements from the other sites, they can set cookies as well.
We do not control the use of these third-party cookies and cannot access them due to the way that cookies work, as cookies can only be accessed by the party that originally sets them. Please check the third-party websites for more information about these cookies.

I DON’T CONSENT TO THE USE OF COOKIES – WHAT CAN I DO?
You can turn off cookies for a particular website or several sites, by adjusting your browser settings to prevent it from accepting cookies. You can learn how here or follow the links below:
It’s important to note that turning off cookies is likely to limit the functionality of not only our website, but also the functionality of a large number of the world’s websites, and accordingly, your experience of ours and other websites may be impaired because data is no longer being captured about your interactions.
It may be that your concerns around cookies relate to so called “spyware” and in which case, rather than switching off cookies in your browser, you may find that anti-spyware software achieves the same objective by automatically deleting cookies considered to be invasive.
