Cookie Policy


Like almost all websites we use cookies and similar tools across our websites to improve their performance and enhance your user experience. This policy explains how we do that.


What are cookies?

Cookies are small text files which a website may put on your computer or mobile device when you first visit a site or page. The cookie will help the website to recognise your device the next time you visit. We use the term “cookies” in this policy to refer to all files that collect information in this way.


There are many functions cookies serve. For example, they can help us to remember your preferences and analyse how well our website is performing. Most cookies won’t collect information that identifies you, and will instead collect more general information such as how users arrive at and use our websites, or a user’s general location.
