What are cookies and tracking technologies?
A cookie is a small text file containing letters and numbers which is transferred to your computer or mobile when you visit a website or app; a cookie is used to remember preferences and login information.
Tracking technology includes a wider range of methods including cookies and other techniques like tracking pixels, to monitor activity when a user visits a site or app, as well as building detailed user profiles such as their interactions (pages visited, links clicked, and time spent on pages).
Many improvements and updates to this website are based directly on the information received in this way.
Why do we use cookies and other tracking?
We use this type of technology to do different things:
remember information about you, so you don’t have to give it to us again, and messages for new visitors aren’t displayed to you again;
help us understand how people are using our services such as which web pages visitors go to most often, so we can make them better and improve a user’s experience when visiting this site;
remember security settings that can affect access to certain content; and
help remember your preferences so your use of this site is personal to you.
What type of cookies do we use?
Some cookies will always be on when you visit this site, and they can’t be turned off unless you change your browser settings. These are “strictly necessary cookies”. We use them to make sure our digital services work as expected, meet the interests of visitors to this site and ensure users can log into secure areas of the site when needed.
We also use functional, performance and advertising cookies to count and understand how visitors move around our site, and to recognise when you return to our site. You can switch these on or off at any time, and you can always change your mind.
So you can easily "Like" or share our content on certain social media platforms, such as Facebook, Instagram and LinkedIn, we have included links on our site and this means social media cookies are also in use; these are set by the third party social media platforms to which they relate.
Please bear in mind other cookies, referred to as “third party cookies” exist from other companies that might track how you use different websites, including ours. You might, for example, get a social media company’s cookie on your device when you see the option to share something. You can turn these cookies off, but not through our site.
These are the cookies we’re using and why:

How long do cookies last?
Some like “session cookies” will be erased as soon as you close the browser on which you were viewing our site but others, referred to as “persistent cookies”, will stay on your computer or device after your browser is closed and last for a time that’s specified in the cookie. We may use these them, for example, to remember your preferences for the next time you visit.
How to control cookies and tracking?
