A “cookie” is a bite-sized piece of data that is stored on your computer’s hard drive. They are used by nearly all websites and do not harm your system.

We use them to track your activity to help ensure you get the smoothest possible experience when visiting our website but the information does not usually identify you directly. We can use the information from cookies to ensure we present you with options tailored to your preferences on your next visit. We can also use cookies to analyse traffic and for advertising purposes.

These also include social media plug-ins which enable you to share our website content via your social media account(s) or easily share information with others.  We have a presence on YouTube, LinkedIn and Twitter, and if you click on any of these icons on our website, you will be taken to our pages or profiles on those platforms. The platforms may then start tracking your behaviour using cookies for their own purposes; for example, to better understand your interests so that they can present relevant content or advertising to you.  Data about you may also be transmitted to the social media channel even if you do not click on the plug-in.  The social media platforms will provide us with statistical information, which we use to help understand how you and our other users interact with our social medial presence.  All these platforms provide you with some control over their use of non-essential tracking technology and you can find details of how to exercise this control by reviewing their privacy and cookie notices.  We have contractual arrangements in place with the social media channels we use.  Please contact us for more information.

You can set your browser to refuse all or some browser cookies, or to alert you when websites set or access cookies. If you disable or refuse cookies, please note that some parts of this website may become inaccessible or not function properly. For more information generally on cookies, including how to disable them, please refer to aboutcookies.org. You will also find details on how to delete cookies from your computer.
