Cookies, Web Beacons, and Other Similar Technologies:

We collect data through cookies and similar technologies. We use cookies and similar technologies to recognize you and/or your device(s) on, off, and across different Services and devices. You can control cookies through your browser settings and other tools.

In some instances, these cookies are needed for the website to function – you can disable them in your browser, but this may interfere with the proper functioning of our website.

 

 

We use the following cookies:

 

 

Session/Period cookies allow website owners to collect analytics data, remember language settings, and perform other useful functions that help provide a good user experience. These cookies expire when the browser is closed.

 

 

Permanent / Persistent cookies: Same as above; however, these remain in operation even when you have closed the browser. They remember your login details and password, so you don’t have to type them in every time you use the site. These cookies have a pre-determined expiry date and will appear until the expiry date is reached.

 

 

Third-party cookies: are created by domains other than the one you are visiting directly, hence the name third-party. These are installed by third parties with the aim of collecting certain information to carry out various research into behaviour, demographics etc., such as advertisers.

 

Google Analytics: This is tracking software from Google that we use to monitor how users interact with the website in order for us to improve its functionality and content.
