Cookie Policy

There is EU legislation effective 26-05-2011, that will be enforced from 26-05-2012 that requires that all web sites clearly specify if cookies are being used on a website and sets out their purpose. This is how we use cookies when you visit our website.

What are cookies?

A “cookie” is a text file containing small amounts of information which a server downloads to your computer or mobile device when you visit a website. The server then sends a cookie back to the originating website each time you subsequently visit it, or if you visit another website which recognises that cookie.

There are different types of cookies which are used to do different things, such as letting you navigate between different pages on a website efficiently, remembering preferences you have given a website, and improving your overall experience. Others are used to provide you with advertising which is more tailored to your interests, or to measure the number of site visits and the most popular pages users visit.

Some cookies are allocated to your computer only for the duration of your visit to a website, and these are called session based cookies. These automatically expire when you close down your browser.

Another type of cookie known as a “persistent”. These cookies would remain on your computer for a period of time.

How we ask for your consent

Certain cookies on this website have been identified as “strictly necessary”. These cookies enable us to provide you the services you have requested via the site. We do not need to ask for your consent to use these, as we would not be able to provide the service you had asked for without them.
