Introduction
To help us improve our site, we sometimes collect and store data that shows how people use it – however, none of this is personal data that can be linked to individual members.
What are cookies and how do they work?
Cookies are small text files that are sent to, and stored on, your computer, smartphone or other device for accessing the internet, whenever you visit a website. Cookies are useful because they allow us to tailor the website user’s experience to you (for example, by remembering previous preferences you have set).
Once you agree, the file is added and the cookie helps analyse web traffic or lets us know when you visit a particular site. Cookies allow web applications to respond to you as an individual. The web application can tailor its operations to your needs, likes and dislikes by gathering and remembering information about your preferences.
Although this policy refers to ‘cookies’ throughout, it also includes similar technologies including Flash cookies or Local Shared Objects (LSOs). Read more about them here.
