Cookies

When you visit the Site we may store some information (commonly known as a "cookie") on your computer. Cookies are pieces of information that a website transfers to your hard drive to store and sometimes track information about you. Cookies are specific to the server that created them and cannot be accessed by other servers, which means that they cannot be used to track your movements around the web. Passwords are not stored in cookies. The information collected by cookies does not personally identify you. It includes general information about your computer settings, your connection to the internet (operating system and platform, IP address, your browsing patterns, timings of browsing on the Site etc).

By accessing this Site, you agree that these terms relating to the use of cookies apply whenever you access the Site on any device.

Types of cookie that may be used during your visit to the Website:

The following types of cookie are used on this Site. We do not list every single cookie used by name - but for each type of cookie we tell you how you can control its use.

1. Personalisation cookies

These cookies are used to recognise repeat visitors to the Site and in conjunction with other information we hold to attempt to record specific browsing information (that is, about the way you arrive at the Site, pages you view, options you select, information you enter and the path you take through the Site).

2. Analytics cookies

These monitor how visitors move around the Site and how they reached it. This is used so that we can see total (not individual) figures on which types of content users enjoy most, for instance.

3. Third-party service cookies

Social sharing, video and other services we offer are run by other companies. These companies may drop cookies on your computer when you use them on our site or if you are already logged in to them.

4. Other ad management cookies

Advertisements on the Site are provided by other organisations. Our advertising partners will serve advertisements that they believe are most likely to be of interest to you, based on information about your visit to the Site and other websites. In order to do this, our advertising partner may need to place a cookie on your computer. These cookies hold information about the computer - they do not hold personal information about you (i.e. it is not linked to you as an individual).

5. Site management cookies

These are used to maintain your identity or session on the Site. For instance, where our Site runs on more than one server, we use a cookie to ensure that you are sent information by one specific server (otherwise you may log in or out unexpectedly). These cookies cannot be turned off individually but you could change your browser setting to refuse all cookies (see above) if you do not wish to accept them.

A cookie helps you get the best out of the Site and helps us to provide you with a more customised service. We use cookies for the following purposes:

  • So that you will not have to re-enter your details each time you visit the Site
  • To track how the Site is used and to improve and update our content
  • You can block or erase cookies from your computer if you wish, but certain parts of the Site are reliant on the use of cookies to operate correctly and may not work correctly if you set your browser not to accept cookies. Most browsers are automatically set to accept cookies and you should be able to restrict or disable them - if you wish - by adjusting the settings on your browser. This will however affect your use of the areas of our site that use persistent cookies, such as any login areas. If you turn off cookies in your browser then these settings will apply to all websites and not just the Site. If you do, we cannot guarantee that your experience of the Site will be as good if you do not allow cookies.
  • We do not use 'spyware', which consist of web bugs, hidden identifiers or other similar devices to gain access to information, store hidden information or to trace your activities. For more information about cookies and instructions on how to adjust your browser settings to restrict or disable cookies, see the IAB website at http://www.allaboutcookies.org/
