Cookies Explained

Cookie Policy and User Control: This section of our Cookie Notice informs you about the cookies we use for personalizing content, targeting advertisements, and analyzing site usage. You will also find information on how to restrict cookie usage if you prefer. This policy should be considered alongside our Privacy Policy, which provides additional details on how we handle personal information.

#1 Understanding the Variety of Cookies We Use

We use the following types of cookies:
  • Strictly necessary cookies. These cookies are necessary for the website to function and cannot be switched off in our systems. They are usually only set in response to actions made by you which amount to a request for services, such as setting your privacy preferences, logging in or filling in forms. You can set your browser to block or alert you about these cookies, but some parts of the site will not then work. These cookies do not store any personal information.
  • Functional cookies. These cookies enable our website to provide enhanced functionality and personalisation. They may be set by us or by third party providers whose services we have added to our pages. If you do not allow these cookies then some or all of these services may not function properly.
  • Performance cookies. These cookies allow us to count visits and traffic sources so we can measure and improve the performance of our site. They help us to know which pages are the most and least popular and see how visitors move around the site. All information these cookies collect is aggregated and is therefore anonymous. If you do not allow these cookies we will not know when you have visited our site, and we will not be able to monitor its performance.
  • Targeting cookies. These cookies may be set through our site by our advertising partners. They may be used by those companies to build a profile of your interests and show you relevant adverts on other websites. These cookies work by uniquely identifying your browser and internet device. If you do not allow these cookies, you will experience less targeted advertising.
  • Personalised advertising cookies. We use third-party Ad Manager to deliver advertising on some of our web pages. In order to do this Manager may collect or receive information about you.

#2 Use of Non-Affiliated Linked Websites

The advertisements you see displayed on the site are sometimes generated by third parties. These services may use their own anonymous cookies to track how many times a particular ad has been displayed to you, and may track your visits to other sites where their ads are displayed. Please note that advertisers can only track visits to sites which display their ads or other content. This tracking is anonymous, meaning that they do not identify who is viewing which ads. Tracking in this manner allows advertisers to show you ads that are more likely to be interesting to you, and also limit the number of times you see the same ad across a wide number of sites. As an example of how advertisers operate, if you recently researched cars, adverts for motoring service providers may subsequently appear on this website. Company does not have access to, or control over, these third party cookies; nor can the data held by these advertisers be viewed. Online advertisers provide ways for you to opt-out of your browsing being tracked.

#3 Implications of Browser Cookie Settings

You always have a choice over whether or not to accept cookies. When you first visit our website, we will ask you to consent to either our recommended settings, or choose which cookies to switch on. You can manage cookies and chose to block or restrict cookies by selecting the appropriate settings in your internet browser. However, if you choose not to accept certain cookies, you may impair certain functionality on our website or may cause it not to work at all. Please note, strictly necessary cookies will always be set as they are essential for our website to operate. You can set your browser to block or alert you about these cookies but some parts of the website will then not work.
