Cookie Consent
When You first visit our site, a cookie banner will appear and request consent to place cookies. Our website only places optional cookies when You consent by clicking “accept” in the cookie banner.
“Cookies” are small pieces of data, stored in text files, that are stored on Your computer or other devices when websites are loaded in a browser. They are widely used to “remember” You and Your preferences, either for a single visit (through a “session cookie”) or for multiple repeat visits (using a “persistent cookie”). They ensure a consistent and efficient experience for visitors and perform essential functions such as allowing users to register and remain logged in. Cookies may be set by the site that You are visiting (known as “first party cookies”), or by third parties, such as those who serve content or provide advertising or analytics services on the website (“third party cookies”).
What Cookies Do We Use?

- Performance Cookies. These cookies collect information about how visitors use a website, for instance, which pages visitors go to most often, and if they get error messages from web pages. All information these cookies collect is aggregated and used to improve how a website works. If You do not allow these cookies we will not know when You have visited our site and will not be able to monitor its performance.
- Social Media Cookies. These cookies are set by a range of social media services that we have added to the site to enable You to share our content with Your friends and networks. They are capable of tracking Your browser across other sites and building up a profile of Your interests. This may impact the content and messages You see on other websites You visit. If You do not allow these cookies You may not be able to use or see these sharing tools.
- Targeting Cookies. These cookies may be set through our site by our advertising partners. They may be used by those companies to build a profile of Your interests and show You relevant adverts on other sites.
