Unless defined differently in this Cookie Policy, the terms and definitions of each party in this Cookie Policy have the same meanings as defined in our Terms & Conditions.
What are cookies?
A cookie is a small file placed in a web browser that collects information about a user’s web browsing behaviour. The use of cookies allows a website to tailor its configuration each user’s needs and preferences. Cookies do not access information stored on a user’s computer or any Personal Data (e.g. name, address, email address or telephone number). Most web browsers automatically accept cookies, but users can choose to reject cookies by deleting their existing cookies, changing their browser settings, or rejecting the Cookie Consent opt-in box. This may, however, prevent users from taking full advantage of certain websites.
Our website uses cookies to analyse website traffic, provide social media sharing and liking functionality and to help us provide a better website user experience.
To expand your knowledge, we have defined cookies further, highlighted the various types of cookies and the purpose they serve in a broad sense in an article we’ve written here.

Third party cookies
We may also point from our website to other internet services that use cookies. This is the case with payment processors, newsletter platforms, multimedia services and social media accounts. To view content via a third party a user has to accept their specific Cookie Policy which we have no control over.
Cookie Consent
Our website uses an affirmative action opt-in checkbox for cookie consent. This box pops up on a user’s first visit to the website and any subsequent visit after a user has deleted cookies from their browser. The consent form will not pop up again after a user’s first visit unless they delete the cookies from their browser or visit from a different browser.
The Cookie Consent pop up box offers users the ability to accept, reject or customise preferences in relation to this Cookie Policy and subsequent use of the Website.
Opt out of cookies
For a user to opt out of having our cookies on their device they will need to delete cookies from their browser in the first instance, below is this process on some of the more common browsers:
Once a user has done this any subsequent visit to our website will be met with the aforementioned Cookie Consent opt-in box. At this point a user needs to click the ‘reject’ option. Alternately a user can click on ‘learn more and settings’ to opt out of certain cookies being placed on their browser.
Cookie Management
Given the nature of our work we have written about the considerations internet users should have in relation to cookies. We’re proud to share these tips and considerations here. This article contains the path to where users can manage their browser’s cookie permissions long term.
