What are cookies and how do we use them?

Like most websites you visit, our website (“site”) uses cookies and other similar technologies to distinguish you from other users of our site. This helps us to provide you with the best experience when you browse our website and also allows us to improve our site. For example, this allows us to store and manage your settings (such as your preferred language) and enable content.

Cookies

Cookies are text files containing small amounts of information which are downloaded to your device when you visit a website. Cookies may then be sent back to the originating website on each subsequent visit, or to another website that recognises that cookie. Cookies are useful because they allow a website to recognise a user’s device and to remember your actions and preferences (such as login details, language, font size and other display preferences) over a period of time.

We rely on your consent to use cookies (except “strictly necessary cookies” which are essential to operate the site, as described below).  You can refuse cookies at any time by changing the cookie settings in your browser.

You can find more information about cookies, including how to see what cookies have been set on your device and how to manage and disable them, by visiting the Information Commissioner’s webpage on cookies: https://ico.org.uk/for-the-public/online/cookies/.

We use the following cookies:

  • Strictly necessary cookies. These are cookies that are essential for the operation of our website. They include, for example, cookies that enable you to log into your account in the careers section of our site or to use our online form.
  • Functionality cookies. These are used to recognise you when you return to our website. This enables us to personalise our content for you and remember your preferences (for example, your choice of language or region).
  • Analytical/performance cookies.They allow us to recognise and count the number of visitors and to see how visitors move around our website when they are using it. This helps us to improve the way our website works, for example, by ensuring that users are finding what they are looking for easily
