Cookies Policy
We use a system of classifying the different types of cookies which we use on the website, or which may be used by third parties through our website.

What is a Cookie?
Cookies are text files containing small amounts of information which are downloaded to your personal computer, mobile or other device when you visit a website. Cookies are then sent back to the originating website on each subsequent visit or to another website that recognises the cookie. Cookies are useful because they allow a website to recognise a user’s device.
How Long are Cookies Stored For?

Session cookies allow website operators to link the actions of a user during a browser session. A browser session starts when a user opens the browser window and finishes when the browser window is closed. Session cookies are created temporarily and once you close the browser all session cookies are deleted.
