What are cookies? Cookies are text files containing small amounts of information that are placed on your computer, smartphone, tablet or other means of access the internet (each, a "device") whenever you visit most websites. Cookies are then sent back to the originating website on each subsequent visit, or to another website that recognizes the cookie. Cookies are useful because they allow us to recognise your device. They serve many different purposes, such as allowing you to navigate between pages more efficiently, remembering your preferences or recognising visitors to our websites so we can see how you navigate our websites when you use them. This helps us improve the way our websites work (for example, by making sure you can easily find what you need). What sort of cookies do we use? There are two types of cookie we use on our websites: Session cookies are temporary cookies that remain in the cookie file of your device until you close your browser (at which point they are deleted) Persistent or stored cookies remain permanently on the cookie file of your computer, unless you choose to delete them Both types of cookie can either be first-party (i.e. owned by us) or third-party (i.e. owned by a trusted affiliate of ours). What is the difference between first-party and third-party cookies? Whether a cookie is first-party or third-party depends on which website the cookie comes from. First-party cookies are those set by us when you visit any of our websites. All other cookies are third-party cookies. We use both first-party and third-party cookies, which you can read more about under the four categories of cookies described below. How do we use cookies and what do they do? The cookies used on our websites fall into one of four categories, based on the International Chamber of Commerce guide to cookie categories. The categories are: "strictly necessary", "performance", "functionality", and "targeting." "Strictly necessary" cookies These cookies are essential to help you move around our websites and use the functionality, such as accessing secure areas of our website. Without these cookies, certain features and functionality will not be available to you. We categorize the following cookies as strictly necessary: Session ID cookies: These cookies are used to help us load pages you would like to view faster. They are also used for our websites requiring a login to verify your device. The information used to do this is not collected and is not logged for tracking, sales or marketing purposes. “Performance” and “functionality” cookies: These cookies give you extra functionality, such as being able to ask us to remember your preferences. They also let us monitor how our websites are performing so we can take steps to improve them. We categorize the following cookies as performance or functional cookies: Site location cookies: We sometimes use these cookies to remember certain sections of our websites you visited and redirect you there the next time you visit. The information used to do this is not collected and is not logged for tracking, sales or marketing purposes. Analytics cookies: These cookies enable us to track visitor behavior and measure website performance. Targeting cookies These cookies contain a unique key that can distinguish individual users’ browsing habits or store a code that can be translated into to a set of browsing habits or preferences using information stored elsewhere. They do not store personal information directly, but are based on uniquely identifying your browser and internet device. If you do not allow these cookies, you will experience less targeted advertising. We categorize the following cookies as targeting cookies: Advertising cookies: These cookies are used to deliver online advertisements on other websites that are more relevant to you and your interests. They are also used to limit the number of times you see such advertisements as well as help measure the effectiveness of the advertising campaign. The hosts include DoubleClick, Google Analytics, Linkedin and Twitter.
