Cookie Overview

We use cookies (a small piece of computer code that we store for a period of time on your computer or mobile device) when you visit our sites in order to make the sites work better for you. The data we collect using cookies helps us understand our customers better so that we can provide a more focused user experience. Using the knowledge of your previous visits to our sites, we can enhance subsequent visits by tailoring our content to match your requirements. We use cookies principally because we want to make our sites and mobile applications user-friendly, and we are interested in anonymous user behaviour. Generally, our cookies don’t store sensitive or personally identifiable information such as your name and address or credit card details. In the unlikely event that our sites use cookies to store personal information about you, we encrypt the personal data to prevent unauthorised use by anyone else. Here’s a list of the main types of cookies we use, and what we use them for.

  • Analytical/Performance Cookies: These cookies allow us to recognise and count the number of visitors and to see how visitors move around our website when they are using it. This helps us to improve the way our website works, for example, by ensuring that users find what they are looking for easily.
