Our Cookie Use Explained

We utilize small data files known as cookies on your device to ensure our website operates correctly and to deliver the most suitable products and services to our visitors and members. This document outlines our cookie usage and management strategies. To gain a deeper understanding of cookies, consider viewing the accompanying video.

Understanding Cookies

A cookie is a tiny data file (text file) that websites request your browser to save on your device when you visit them. This is to remember details about you, like your language preferences or login details. We set up cookies directly (first-party cookies) and also employ third-party cookies (from domains other than our website's) to support our advertising and marketing activities. Specifically, our use of cookies and tracking technologies covers the following areas:

Essential Cookies

These cookies are crucial for the website's functionality and can't be deactivated in our systems. They respond to your service requests, like setting privacy preferences, logging in, or completing forms. Blocking these cookies through your browser settings may affect how our site functions, as they do not collect personally identifiable information.

Functional Cookies

Functional cookies enhance the website's functionality and personalization. They might be set by us or third-party providers whose services we've integrated into our site. If these cookies are blocked, some or all of these services might not operate correctly.

Performance Cookies

Performance cookies help us to analyze visits and traffic sources so we can measure and improve our website's performance. They identify which pages are most and least popular and track how visitors navigate our site. The data collected is aggregated and therefore anonymous. Blocking these cookies means we won't be able to monitor our site's performance during your visit.

Targeting Cookies

Our advertising partners may place targeting cookies to develop a profile of your interests and show you relevant ads on other sites. These cookies don't store personal information but identify your browser and internet device uniquely. If you opt-out of these cookies, you'll likely see less targeted advertising.

Managing and Deleting Cookies

You can manage or delete cookies through your browser settings. Disabling cookies is usually done via the "Help", "Tools", or "Edit" sections. Note that disabling cookies will not remove them from your browser unless you do so manually.

Past Cookies

Deleting our analytics cookies will remove the collected data, but previously collected information may still be utilized unless you manually disable the cookie in your browser. For marketing cookies, opting out will place a new cookie to prevent future tracking.
