What are cookies?

Cookies are small text files which a website may put on your computer or mobile device when you visit a website or page. The cookie will help the website, or another website, to recognise your device the next time you visit. Web beacons or other similar files can do the same thing. We use the term “cookies” in this policy to refer to all files that collect information in this way.

Cookies serve many functions. For example, they can help us to remember your username and preferences, analyse how well our website is performing, or even allow us to recommend content we believe will be most relevant to you.

Certain cookies may record personal information – for example, if you click “Remember me” when logging in, a cookie will store your username. Most cookies will not collect information that identifies you personally, and will instead allow us to collect more general information, such as how users arrive at and use the Site.

How do we use cookies?

Unlike most online services, which use both first-party and third-party cookies, we only utilise first-party cookies. First-party cookies are primarily necessary for the website to function properly and are not set by third-party domains.
