How We Use Cookies
Analytics
We
use “analytics” cookies which, in conjunction with our web server’s log
files, allow us to calculate the aggregate number of people visiting
our Website and which parts of our Website are most popular. This helps
us gather feedback so that we can improve our Website and better serve
our users. We do not generally store any personal information that you
provide to us in a cookie.
Advertising
These
cookies allow us to know whether or not you’ve seen an advert or a type
of advert, and how long it is since you’ve seen it.
We may also use
cookies set by a third party to more accurately target advertising to
you. These cookies are anonymous – they store information about the
content you are browsing, but not about who you are.
A lot of the
advertisements you see on our website are generated by third parties.
Some of these third parties use their own anonymous cookies to track how
many people have seen a particular ad, or to track how many people have
seen it more than once.
The companies that generate these cookies
have their own privacy policies, and we have no access to read or write
these cookies. These third party advertising cookies may be used by
those third parties to anonymously target advertising to you on other
websites, based on your visit to our website. For more information about
these cookies and how to disable them please visit Your Online Choices.
