Policy

We may obtain information about your general internet usage by using a cookie file, which is stored on your browser or the hard drive of your computer. Cookies contain information that is transferred to your computer’s storage.

If you register with us or continue to use our Website, you agree to us using cookies. Cookies are widely used to make websites work, or work more efficiently. They also provide useful information to website owners. A cookie is a small text file that is passed to your computer’s hard disk through your web browser, so the website remembers who you are when you return.

​

We use the following cookies in our Website to give you a more personalised web service.

​

The first type is known as a “session-based” cookie and is allocated to your computer only for the duration of your visit to our Website. It helps you to move around the Website faster. This cookie automatically expires when you close down your browser.

The second type is a “persistent” cookie. These cookies store information between visits. For example, if you select the ‘Remember me on this computer’ box, your username and password are saved in a cookie on your computer. This means that the next time you log on to our Website using that computer you won’t need to re-enter those details. We suggest you don’t select the ‘Remember me’ box if you use a shared computer (for example, if you access the internet at a cafe, or at a shared or publicly available computer). The cookie file itself won’t store your personal information.

​

Information collected in this way is anonymous and individuals can’t be traced. This information allows us to improve our Website and our services, for example, to measure the effect or success of our advertising campaigns and products.

​

The information generated by the Google Analytics cookie about your use of our Website (including your IP address) will be transmitted to and stored by Google on servers in the United States. Google may also transfer this information to others, where they’re required to do this by law, or where these others process the information on Google’s behalf. Google undertakes not to associate your IP address with any other data held by Google.
