Cookie Policy

Why this policy is here

Cookies can help a website remember information, operate correctly and understand how visitors use different parts of a website.

This policy provides a straightforward explanation of the types of cookies that may be used on this website, what they are used for and how you can control them.

A simple explanation

A cookie is a small text file placed on your device when you visit a website. Cookies can allow a website to recognise a particular browser or remember information between pages.

Some cookies are created directly by the website you are visiting. Others may be created by services that support particular website functions.

Cookies do not normally contain information that directly identifies you by name. Depending on how a website and its supporting services are configured, however, information associated with cookies may be connected with other information held about a website visit.

Different cookies serve different purposes

How cookies may support the website

Depending on the website configuration, cookies may be used for several practical purposes.

• Helping pages and website functions load and operate correctly.
• Remembering selected website preferences where available.
• Understanding general website usage and visitor journeys.
• Supporting forms, booking or consultation-related website functions where required.
• Maintaining website performance and identifying technical issues.
• Supporting embedded or externally provided website features when those features are used.

How long cookies remain

Cookies can have different lifespans depending on their purpose. Some exist only while your browser session remains open, while others remain on your device for a longer period.

Exact cookie names and durations can change when website features or supporting services are updated.

You can manage cookies

Most modern web browsers allow you to view, block, delete or restrict cookies through their settings. You can usually find these controls within the browser’s privacy, security or site settings.

Removing or blocking a cookie does not necessarily remove information that may already have been collected before the change was made.

Keeping this policy current

This Cookie Policy may be updated when the website changes, new features are introduced, supporting services are changed, or applicable requirements are updated.

The latest version will be made available on this page. Where a change affects how cookie information is collected or used, the relevant website information or preference controls will be updated where required.
