3. Why we use cookies

Depending on the website features and your choices, cookies may be used to:

• make the website function;
• keep the site secure;
• remember settings or preferences;
• process forms or purchases;
• understand how visitors use the site;
• measure website performance;
• understand whether marketing activity is effective; and

We do not use non-essential cookies before obtaining consent where consent is required.

4. Types of cookies

Strictly necessary cookies

These cookies are required for functions such as security, checkout, form operation, session management, fraud prevention or remembering cookie choices.

Because they are necessary to provide the website or a service you request, they may not require consent.

Analytics cookies

Where enabled, analytics technologies help us understand matters such as how visitors reach the website, which pages they use and how the site performs.

Where consent is required, analytics cookies will not be activated until you agree.

Functional cookies

These may provide enhanced functions or remember preferences that are not strictly necessary to provide the core website.

Where required, they will be used only with consent.

Marketing and advertising cookies

Where enabled, these may be used to measure advertising, understand whether a visitor took action after seeing an advertisement, build audiences or support remarketing.

They may involve third-party advertising platforms.

Where consent is required, these technologies will not be activated until you agree.

5. Cookies and technologies actually used

This table will be populated with the actual cookies, pixels, tags and similar technologies used by the live website once the configuration has been verified. It will not be populated with invented or assumed information.

6. Third parties

Some cookies or similar technologies may be provided by third-party technology suppliers.

Where third parties are involved, the cookie inventory should identify them and describe the purpose of their technology.

Third parties may process information in accordance with their own privacy information.

7. Your choices

When you first visit the website, you should be given controls allowing you to:

• accept non-essential cookies;
• reject non-essential cookies; or

Rejecting non-essential cookies should be as straightforward as accepting them.

You can change your preferences later by using Cookie Settings in the website footer.

Blocking strictly necessary cookies may affect whether parts of the website function properly.
