Our Privacy Policy explains our principles when it comes to the collection, processing, and storage of your information. This policy specifically explains what cookies are and how we use them. You should read this policy so you can understand what type of cookies we use, the information we collect using cookies and how that information is used.

SECTION 1 – WHAT ARE COOKIES?

Cookies are small pieces of data, stored in text files, that are stored on your computer or other device when websites are loaded in a browser. They are widely used to “remember” you and your preferences, either for a single visit (through a “session cookie”) or for multiple repeat visits (using a “persistent cookie”). They ensure a consistent and efficient experience for visitors, and perform essential functions such as allowing users to register and remain logged in. Cookies may be set by the site that you are visiting (known as “first party cookies”), or by third parties, such as those who serve content or provide advertising or analytics services on the website (“third party cookies”).

Both websites and HTML emails may also contain other tracking technologies such as “web beacons” or “pixels”. These are typically small transparent images that provide us with statistics, for similar purposes as cookies. They are often used in conjunction with cookies, though they are not stored on your computer in the same way. As a result, if you disable cookies, web beacons may still load, but their functionality will be restricted.

SECTION 2 – HOW WE USE COOKIES

We use a variety of different types of cookies on our Site. Different cookies have different specific purposes but in general they are all used so that we can improve your experience in using our Site and interacting with us. Some of the purposes of different cookies we use are described below.

We use cookies to enhance your browsing experience by:

  • recognising when you log in and any preferred settings;
  • giving you a browsing experience that is unique to you and to serve you content which we believe improves your site experience; and
  • analysing how you use our site which helps us to troubleshoot any problems and to monitor our own performance.

Enabling these cookies is not strictly necessary for the website to work but it will provide you with a better browsing experience. You can delete or block these cookies, but if you do that some features of this site may not work as intended.

The cookie-related information is not used to identify you personally and it is not used for any purpose other than those described here.

SECTION 3 – CONTROLLING COOKIES

You may wish to restrict the use of cookies or completely prevent them from being set. You can also delete all cookies that are already on your computer. Most browsers provide for ways to control cookie behaviour such as the length of time they are stored – either through built-in functionality or by utilising third party plugins. If you disable cookies, please be aware that some of the features of our Site may not function correctly.

SECTION 4 – CHANGES TO THIS POLICY

We may update this cookie policy from time to time.

We reserve the right to modify this cookie policy at any time, so please review it frequently. Changes and clarifications will take effect immediately upon their posting on the website. If we make material changes to this policy, we will notify you here that it has been updated.
