Session Cookie
These cookies expire and are deleted at the end of a browser session, that is, from when you open the browser to when you exit it. They allow us to link the actions of a user during a single browser session to allow you to use the website most efficiently. For example, to remember that you placed items in an online shopping basket. They could also be used for security when you are accessing internet banking or to facilitate the use of webmail. These cookies are not stored beyond the browser session.
End of the session
Persistent cookies
This cookie is stored on the user's terminal equipment between browsing sessions, until it reaches a defined expiration date. They therefore enable the website to "recognise" you on your return, to remember your preferences and to tailor services to you.
They may also be used to track your browsing activity across different websites and to build up a detailed profile of their browsing behaviour for use in targeted advertising.

Third-party cookies
These cookies are planted by parties, other than the website operator (as defined by the URL placed in the address bar of the browser). It usually happens when the website incorporates images, social media plugins or advertising from other sites, as these can set cookies as well. Although the browser and some third-party 'security' utilities allow you to switch them off, the Site will cease to work correctly if this happens. You may at any time exercise your right to have these cookies removed by either clearing the cookies from your browser or using the "Privacy mode" in your browser to erase them automatically, if you choose to. You should be aware that, as the Site depends on some of these cookies to function correctly, choosing to erase these will stop the site from functioning, and you will be required to accept this notice again before proceeding.
By accepting this notice, you consent to the storage and use of the cookies described above on your browsing device, and you acknowledge that you may revoke your consent at any time using the method outlined above.
