This Policy aims to help you understand what cookies are, how we use them and what choices you have about them. Cookies and their use are regulated under the Privacy and Electronic Communication Regulations (PECR).
Cookies are small text files containing a string of characters that can be placed on your computer or mobile device which uniquely identify your browser or device. The cookie has a unique ID assigned to your device but does not contain any of your personal information like name or email address. The software on your devices is able to store cookies and then send them back to our website when you visit it.
Cookies allow a site or services to know if your computer or device has visited that site or service before. Cookies can then be used to help understand how the site or service is being used, help you navigate between pages efficiently, help remember your preferences, and generally improve your browsing experience. Without cookies, our website would not be able to ‘remember’ anything about its visitors and therefore.
The length of time a cookie will stay on your computer or mobile device depends on whether it is a “persistent” or a “session” cookie. Session cookies will only stay on your device until you stop browsing and then are deleted. Persistent cookies stay on your computer or mobile device until they expire or are deleted. They allow your preferences to be remembered. As a user, you can delete previously set persistent cookies manually or configure your own browser to delete cookies.
