2. What cookies and similar technologies are
Cookies are small text files that are stored on your device when you visit a website. They can make a website work, remember choices, support security, help us understand how visitors use the website, or measure the effectiveness of our marketing.
Similar technologies include pixels, tags, scripts, local storage, device identifiers and other methods of storing or accessing information on a device.
Cookies may be first-party, meaning they are set by our website, or third-party, meaning they are set by another provider whose service is used on our website. They may also be session cookies, which are removed when you close your browser, or persistent cookies, which remain for a defined period or until you delete them.

4. Your cookie choices
When you first visit our website, you can use the cookie banner to accept all non-essential cookies, reject all non-essential cookies, or select the categories you wish to allow. We do not set non-essential cookies unless you have given your consent.
You can change or withdraw your consent by selecting Cookie Settings in the website footer. If you withdraw consent, we will stop setting new non-essential cookies through the relevant category. You may also need to delete cookies already stored on your device through your browser settings.
Most browsers allow you to block or delete cookies. Please note that blocking strictly necessary cookies may prevent parts of the website from working properly. Browser controls do not necessarily prevent every similar technology, so the Cookie Settings control is the recommended way to manage your choices on this site.

6. Third-party services and international transfers
Some technologies on our website are provided by third parties. Those providers may process information such as IP address, device and browser information, page activity, referring URL, cookie identifiers and interaction data. Their processing is governed by their own privacy information as well as our arrangements with them.
Where we use a third-party provider that processes personal data outside the United Kingdom, we will use an appropriate lawful transfer mechanism and safeguards where required. Please see our Privacy Policy for further information about international transfers.
7. Do Not Track and similar browser signals
Some browsers provide a “Do Not Track” setting or a similar privacy signal. Because there is no single industry standard for responding to every such signal, the website may not respond to all of them automatically.
However, where a recognised consent signal or preference setting is supported by the technologies we use, we will configure it consistently with your cookie choices and applicable law.
8. Changes to this policy
We may update this Cookie Policy to reflect changes to the technologies used on our website, our providers or legal requirements. The latest version will be published on this page with its effective date.
