                Cookies

                A cookie is a small amount of information which is downloaded to your computer/device when you visit the website.  
                The website uses a number of different cookies, including functional, performance, advertising, and social media or content cookies. Cookies make your browsing experience better by allowing the website to remember your actions and preferences (such as login and region selection). This means you do not have to re-enter this information when returning to the site or browsing from one page to another. Cookies also provide information on how people use the website, for instance whether it’s their first time visiting or if they are a frequent visitor. 

                The length of time that a cookie remains on your computer or mobile device depends on whether it is a ‘persistent’ or ‘session’ cookie. Session cookies last until you stop browsing and persistent cookies last until they expire or are deleted. Most of the cookies used on the website are persistent and will expire between 30 minutes and two years from the date they are downloaded to your device. You can control and manage cookies in various ways. Please keep in mind that removing or blocking cookies can negatively impact your user experience and parts of the website may no longer be fully accessible. 

                Most browsers automatically accept cookies, but you can choose whether or not to accept cookies through your browser controls, often found in your browser’s ‘Tools’ or ’Preferences’ menus. 
                For more information on how to modify your browser settings or how to block, manage or filter cookies, you can refer to browser’s help file. 
                 
                Furthermore, please note that blocking cookies may not completely prevent how your information is shared with third parties such as advertising partners.
