Before we jump into explaining our Cookie Policy lets first look at what cookies are:
What are cookies?
A cookie is a small text file that may be placed on your computer or mobile device when you our website. We, and some third-party service providers, use cookies on our website. Some are persistent cookies (cookies that remain on your hard drive for an extended period of time) and some are session ID cookies (cookies that expire when you close your browser).
We also use other tracking technologies like web beacons (sometimes called “tracking beacons” or “clear gifs”) and local storage. These are tiny graphics files that contain a unique identifier that enable us to recognise when someone has visited our website or opened an email that we have sent them.
You can find more information about cookie policy at http://www.allaboutcookies.org/ and www.youronlinechoices.com/.
