How Do We Use Cookies?
The cookies used on the Site are categorized in accordance with the International Chamber of Commerce United Kingdom Cookie Guide as follows:
- “Strictly necessary” cookies are essential for the functionality of our Site. These cookies are necessary to enable users to move around the Site and use its features.
- “Performance” cookies collect information about how users navigate the Site. For example, performance cookies identify the pages users access most frequently, how users interact with the Site, any errors that occur, which pages are not used often, which pages take a long time to load, and which pages users tend to visit and in what order. These cookies do not collect any information which could identify an individual user and are only used to help us improve how our Site works.
- “Functionality” cookies allow the Site to remember choices you make (such as your user name, language or the region you are in).
- “Targeting or advertising” cookies are used to deliver advertisements that are more relevant to an identified machine or device (not a named or otherwise identifiable person). For example, if a cookie on a third party website recognizes that a particular product or service was purchased from a particular device, that cookie may “talk to” marketing cookies on the Site to ensure that advertisements about similar products are displayed when the Site is accessed from that device. They are also used to limit the number of times users see an advertisement as well as help measure the effectiveness of an advertising campaign. They may also remember that the Site has been visited from a device and share that information with marketing organizations. These cookies are usually placed by third party advertising networks with our permission.
