Cookie Notice

To provide you with a more personalised and responsive experience, we need to remember and store information about how you interact with this website (“Website”).

We do this using small text files called ‘cookies’ that are downloaded to your computer or device by the Website’s server. Your web browser then sends these cookies back to the Website on subsequent visits, allowing it to recognise you and recall your preferences. You can find more detailed information about cookies and how they work here.

By using the Website, you consent to our use of cookies as described in this Cookie Notice.

1. Types of cookies we use

a. Essential cookies: Some cookies are necessary for you to navigate the Website and access its features, such as secure areas for registered users.

b. Functional cookies: We use functional cookies to record your choices and tailor the Website to your preferences, such as remembering your language or region, or that you’ve already completed a form. This information is usually anonymised and not used for unrelated purposes.

c. Analytic cookies: We or our service providers use analytic services to understand how effective our content is, what interests our users have, and to improve the Website’s functionality. We also use web beacons, tracking pixels, and similar services to gather visitor data and count user numbers. This information is used for statistical purposes and to enhance the Website’s performance. If you register and sign in, we may combine this data with information from our web analytic services and cookies to analyse your usage in more detail.

d. Advertising cookies: We may use web beacons to determine which users have visited the Website after viewing our ads on other sites. We also work with third parties to collect data and serve ads tailored to your interests. Web beacons do not provide us with personal information or access your device, but they may work with cookies to monitor your activity. You cannot remove or block web beacons, but you can remove or block the cookies they work with to prevent the collection of your user activity data.

2. Managing cookies

You can control and manage cookies in various ways. But please note that removing or blocking cookies may impact your user experience, and parts of the Website may no longer be fully accessible.

If you do not accept the use of these cookies, please disable them by clicking ‘Decline’ on the cookie pop-up banner that appears at the bottom of the Website. You may also be able to change your browser settings to manage and control cookies; you can find detailed information on how to do so here.

Accepting or declining cookies is limited to the Website and will not be reflected on other sites or pages that may be hyperlinked from the Website.

3. Email communications

We may also use tracking technologies to determine whether you have read, clicked on, or forwarded certain email communications we send to you so that we can make our communications more helpful and interesting. If you do not wish us to confirm whether you have opened, clicked on or forwarded our communications, you will need to unsubscribe, as it is not possible for us to send these emails without tracking enabled. Registered subscribers can update their communication preferences at any time by contacting us, or you can unsubscribe following the instructions in the individual email communications you receive from us.

We may modify or amend this Cookie Notice from time to time at our discretion. When we make changes to this notice, we will amend the revision date at the bottom of this page, and such modified or amended Cookie Notice shall be effective as to you and your information as of that revision date. We encourage you to periodically review this Cookie Notice to be informed about how we are using cookies.
