Cookie Policy

Cookies are small text files that a website places on your device when you visit. They are widely used to make websites work, to make them work more efficiently, and to give the site owner information about how the site is used. Similar technologies, such as pixels, tags, and local storage, do comparable things. In this Policy, we refer to all of these simply as "cookies".

Cookies may be set by us (first-party cookies) or by third parties whose services we use (third-party cookies). They may last only for your browsing session (session cookies) or remain on your device for a set period or until you delete them (persistent cookies).

We group the cookies on our website into the following categories.

Essential cookies. These are necessary for the website to function properly and cannot be switched off in our systems. They do things like keep the site secure, remember your privacy choices, and make sure the site loads and behaves correctly. Because the website cannot work properly without them, they do not require your consent.

Analytics cookies. These help us understand how visitors find and use our website, for example which pages are most visited and how people move through the site, so we can improve it. The information these cookies collect is used to measure and improve website performance. We use analytics tools such as Google Analytics and our search and performance analytics tools for this purpose.

Advertising and marketing cookies. These help us understand the performance of our marketing and, where applicable, show relevant messages to people who have visited our website. They may be set by us or by advertising and measurement partners such as Google Ads, Microsoft Advertising, and Meta. Where required by the laws that apply to you, we will ask for your consent before using non-essential advertising cookies.

We may update the specific tools we use from time to time as our website and marketing evolve. The categories above describe the purposes those tools serve.

Some cookies on our website are set by third parties that provide services to us, such as analytics and advertising platforms. These third parties may use cookies to collect information about your activity across different websites and over time. We do not control these third-party cookies. You can find more information about how these providers use your information, and the choices they offer, in their own privacy and cookie policies.

The length of time a cookie stays on your device depends on its type. Session cookies are deleted when you close your browser. Persistent cookies remain until they expire or until you delete them. Analytics and advertising cookies typically have set retention periods that vary by provider.

You have several ways to control cookies:

• Browser settings. Most browsers let you see what cookies you have, block or delete them, and control how they are used. You can usually find these controls in your browser's settings or help menu. Blocking some cookies may affect how the website works for you.
• Our cookie controls. Where we offer an on-site cookie banner or preference tool, you can use it to accept or decline non-essential cookies and to change your choices at any time.
• Opting out of certain advertising. Some advertising and analytics providers offer their own opt-out tools, and industry programs let you manage certain advertising cookies across multiple companies at once.

If your browser supports a recognized privacy preference signal, we will honour it where the law requires us to.

We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time to reflect changes in the cookies we use or in the law. When we do, we will revise the "Last updated" date above. We encourage you to review this Policy periodically.
