Information and Consent for Cookies (EU GDPR 679/2016)

Introduction

This website uses cookies to store information on your device to give you the best possible experience. Most of the cookies used do not collect personal details or information that identify a visitor; they are only used by us to improve how the website works. Of the cookies that do collect personal information, the website will not use your data for purposes that are not clear when you provide your details, and will not disclose it outside this website, other than to the relevant authorities if requested.

What is a cookie?

Cookies are simple text files that a website saves to your computer or mobile device using your internet browser. These cookies allow a website to recognize a user's device. Their purpose is to help organize and store browsing information.

Cookies on this website are only set by this website, in which case they are referred to as "first-party cookies".

Most websites use cookies to enhance their user experience. For example, cookie-enabled websites don't think you're a new visitor every time you move to a new page, allowing you to navigate between pages more quickly and easily.

Cookies also allow a website to remember you and your browsing preferences, either for the duration of your visit using a "session cookie" or for repeat visits using a "persistent cookie".

Our Cookie Policy and GDPR Consent

CRUCIAL GDPR NOTE: To make full use of the features of this website, your device will need to accept cookies. According to the GDPR, we must obtain your explicit, affirmative consent before setting any non-essential cookies. By clicking "Accept" on our consent banner, you agree that we can place non-essential cookies on your device.

Data from our website is sent to your browser and stored on your system. This information allows us to evaluate the effectiveness of our website, for example, how visitors use it, what pages they view, the length of each visit, etc.

Types of cookies used on this website

•Technical (Essential) Cookies:

These cookies are strictly necessary for the operation of the website (e.g., login, security, site functionality). They do not require consent.

•First-party cookies:

First-party cookies are set by our website and they can only be read by that website. They can make your experience on the web more efficient by recording your browsing activities, such as what pages and content you've looked at, when you visited, and what you searched for while visiting the website.

•Session cookies:

Session cookies are stored temporarily during a browsing session and are deleted from the user's device when the browser is closed or the cookie times out.

•Persistent cookies:

This type of cookie is saved on your computer for a fixed period and is not deleted when the browser is closed. These cookies are used to save your preferences so that they persist when you return to the website and improve the user experience. These require consent.

Why use cookies?

Cookies are used to improve services for you through, for example:

•Enabling a service to recognize your device so you don't have to give the same information several times during one task.

•Recognizing that you may already have given a username and password, so you don't need to enter them for every web page requested.

•Measuring how many people are using services, so they can be made easier to use and ensure there is enough capacity to avoid restrictions.

•Analyzing anonymous data to help us understand how people interact with our services so we can make them better.

Managing and Disabling Cookies

Different browsers have different ways of allowing you to enable or delete cookies, or limit the kinds of cookies that can be placed on your computer. When choosing your internet browser, e.g. Google Chrome or Opera, you may want to consider which best suits your privacy preferences and meets the requirements of any IT policy which may apply.

To check the settings in a browser, use the "Help" tab or look under "Tools" for settings like "Options" or "Privacy". From there, you may be able to delete cookies or control when they can be placed.

Note: If you disable cookies, you may limit your browsing experience. For example, you may need to enter information repeatedly, or you might not get personalized content that is relevant to you.
