Cookies

To comply with the law, we must explain a little bit about how we use cookies. We aren't talking about the tasty chocolate chip variety; we're talking about little text files. Cookies are not dangerous and cannot be used to circulate viruses.

Most websites that you visit use cookies. A cookie is a harmless little text file that is downloaded to your computer. Cookies enable a website to ‘remember’ you, either for the duration of your visit or for repeat visits. 

We use cookies only where they are strictly necessary for the provision of this website service. We comply with the Privacy and Electronic Communications (EC Directive) (Amendment) Regulations 2011 and the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and do not need to ask for your consent.

What is in a cookie?

A cookie is a harmless little text file stored on your device. It contains some anonymous information such as a unique identifier and the site name, and some digits and numbers. Any cookies that we use will not identify you personally; they consist of statistical information.
