1. What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files that are placed on your device (computer, smartphone, or tablet) when you visit a website. They are widely used in order to make websites work, or work more efficiently, as well as to provide information to the owners of the website.

Cookies serve many purposes, such as remembering your preferences, tracking user behaviour for analytics, enabling essential website functionality, and delivering targeted advertising. They can remain on your device for the duration of your browsing session (session cookies) or for a longer period (persistent cookies).

2. Types of Cookies We Use

Essential Cookies: These cookies are necessary for the website to function properly. They enable you to navigate the site and use its features, such as accessing secure areas. Without these cookies, certain services you have asked for cannot be provided.

Performance Cookies: These cookies help us understand how visitors interact with the website by collecting and reporting information about website usage. We use this information to improve website performance and user experience. Performance cookies do not identify you personally.

This information is typically anonymised and aggregated for analytics purposes. Cookies themselves do not contain personally identifiable information unless you have provided it directly.

We are not responsible for the cookie practices of third-party websites. We encourage you to review their privacy and cookie policies.
