COOKIES

When you visit a website or application, small text files called cookies are downloaded to your computer, tablet, or mobile phone. Each time you visit, the website or application may retrieve these cookies from your web browser (e.g., Internet Explorer, Mozilla Firefox, or Google Chrome) in order to recognise you, remember your preferences, and provide you with a more secure online experience.



Cookies, in general, are very useful and are used by almost every website you visit because they help to make your online experience as smooth as possible. Many websites will not function at all if cookies are not used for security reasons (or other similar technologies, such as "web beacons" or "tags").


Cookies, in general, do not contain any information that can be used to identify an individual person, but rather are used to identify a browser on a specific machine.


If you prefer, you can restrict, block, or delete cookies through your browser settings, but this may cause the website to malfunction.

TYPES OF COOKIES


Cookies are required.

These cookies are required for you to be able to use the features and services available on the #INSERT SITE HERE website. The services you want to use cannot be provided without these cookies. These cookies do not collect information about you that could be used to identify you, and they do not track or remember your internet activity.


Cookies with a purpose

These cookies enable us to provide you with a more personalized online experience when you visit our website. They do not collect or store any information that would allow us to personally identify you.


Cookies that improve performance

Performance cookies enable us to better understand how our customers interact with our website, allowing us to keep our products and services relevant, easy to use, and up to date. We can, for example, see which products and services are most popular, identify when and where errors occur, and test different versions of a page to provide a better online experience.


Other companies may operate the services we use to collect this information on our behalf at times. They may employ cookie-like technologies known as "web beacons" or "tags." These are anonymous and do not contain or collect any information that can be used to identify you because they are only used for statistical purposes.


Cookie targeting

We work with carefully selected and monitored suppliers (third parties) who may set cookies during your visit. These cookies are used for "behavioural advertising" (also known as "behavioural targeting" or "remarketing"), which is a method of displaying relevant products and services based on what you appear to be interested in. Although these cookies can track your web activity, they do not know who you are. Online advertisements will be less relevant to you and your interests if these cookies are not present.


MANAGING COOKIES

Most web browsers allow you to delete cookies from your computer's hard drive, block all cookies (or just third-party cookies), or be notified when a cookie is about to be stored on your device.


Please keep in mind that if you choose to block all cookies, our site will not function properly and you will be unable to use or access many of the services we offer. If you have disabled all cookies and want to use all of the features and services we provide, you must enable your cookies. This is something you can do in your browser (see below).
