LIKE MOST WEBSITES, OUR WEBSITE USES COOKIES
Cookies are small files of letters and numbers which are saved onto your computer, tablet, smartphone, or other device by your web browser when you visit our website. They distinguish you from other people using our web site.
A banner will appear on your screen when you access our site asking for your consent to our use of cookies.
Cookies are used for things like remembering whether you have visited the site before, so that you remain logged in. They can also remember certain information, so you do not have to re- enter it on subsequent visits. They also help us work out how many new website visitors we get each month. They contain information about the use of your computer, although they do not include personal information about you (they do not store your name, for instance).
We use two types of cookies. The first type are persistent cookies, which stay on your computer or other device until they expire. The second are session cookies, which only stay on your computer or device until you close your browser (they are then deleted).
