Functionality cookies
These cookies allow websites to remember choices you make (such as your
user name, language or the region you are in) and provide enhanced
features. These cookies can also be used to remember changes you have made
to text size, font and other parts of web pages that you can customise.
We do not currently use any of these cookies.
1.3.4
Targeting/Marketing cookies
These cookies collect several pieces of information about your browsing
habits. They are usually placed by advertising networks rather than website
operators. They remember that you have visited a website and share this
information with other organisations such as advertisers. They do this in
order to provide you with targeted adverts more relevant to you and your
interests. Quite often they will be linked to website functionality
provided by the other organisation. Although the cookies can track your
visits around the web they do not usually know who you are. Without these
cookies, online advertisements you encounter will be less relevant to you
and your interests.
These cookies will usually be third party cookies, although if you are visiting the advertising network's own website, it is technically possible these could be first party cookies. These cookies can be associated with services provided by the third party, but this is not always the case. All information these cookies collect is anonymised, although they contain a unique key that is able to distinguish individual user browsing habits or store a code that can be translated into a set of browsing habits or preferences. Generally speaking the third party's Privacy Policy on their website will indicate if the cookie is being used as part of an advertising network.
Examples include:
(i) Cookies placed by advertising networks to collect browsing habits in order to target relevant adverts to you. The website you are visiting need not actually be serving adverts, but often this will also be the case.
(ii) Cookies placed by advertising networks to complement services used by website operators to increase functionality, for example, commenting on a blog, adding a website to your social network, providing maps or counters of visitors to a website.
Although we have targeting cookies on our website, we do not knowingly display adverts and target adverts to you; however, third parties might use such cookies through this website. Please refer to Section 1.3.6 below for more information on how third parties use our website.
