What are cookies?

Cookies are text files containing small amounts of information which are downloaded to your browser or device when you visit a certain web address. Cookies are then sent back to the originating web address on each subsequent visit, or to another web address that recognises that cookie. Cookies are widely used in order to make websites work as intended, more efficient and to maintain them.

Cookies do lots of different jobs, like letting you navigate between pages efficiently, remembering your log-in and preferences, and generally improving the user experience. Cookies may tell us, for example, whether you have accessed or used the Website before or whether you are a new visitor or user. Cookies can also store information, which can be used by the server to verify log-ins.

Cookies can help us safeguard the security of our data and our systems, such as preventing a variety of types of attacks, including cross-site information theft, and access with disguised identity.

There are two broad categories of cookies:

  • First party cookies, served directly by us to your device.
  • Third party cookies, which are served by a third party on our behalf.

Cookies can remain on your browser or device for different periods of time. Some cookies are ’session cookies’, meaning that they exist only while your browser or application is open. These are deleted automatically once you close your browser or application. Other cookies are ’permanent cookies’, meaning that they survive after your browser or application is closed. They can be used by the Website to recognise your device when you visit and use the Website again.

How do we use cookies?

Without these cookies, services you have asked for, like secure login accounts, would not be possible.

Advertising and Targeting Cookies

We allow third party companies, including advertising companies, to place cookies on our application. These cookies enable such companies to track your activity across various sites where they display ads and record your activities so they can show ads that they consider relevant to you as you browse the Internet.

These cookies also allow us and third parties to know whether you have seen an ad or a type of ad, and how long it has been since you’ve last seen it. This information is used for frequency capping purposes, to help tailor the ads you see, and to measure the effectiveness of ads.

How to control or delete cookies

Most devices (in the case of mobile applications) and browsers (in the case of web apps and pages) allow you to change your cookie settings. These settings will typically be found in the "options" or "preferences" menu of your browser. This lets you control your cookie settings so that you can:
