What are 'Cookies' and how do we use them?

What are cookies?

A cookie is a file that is saved on your computer by a website you may have visited through your browser. These can be retrieved at a later date by the website which originally placed the cookie. Some cookies only last as long as you browse a particular website, and are deleted as soon as you move to another site. Other cookies are stored by your browser and later retrieved by that website when you visit it again. Typically this type of cookie could deliver a personalised welcome message since it will 'recognise' the user.

How we use cookies on our website.

We use cookies for tracking purposes, or to enhance your visit to our site. They can be added to your browser from either our website, or from third party websites on which we may be running advertisements. This allows us to track which particular banner advertisements used on third party sites have successfully led customers to our service. They may also manage the appearance of advertisements on your browser, preventing you from getting the same advert more than once.

All our cookie data is encrypted and cannot be read by any other website. We do not store any personal or traceable customer information in the cookies we use. It is possible to disable these cookies when using our websites.
