Cookie Policy
A clear explanation of how cookies and similar website technologies may be used to keep this website working, remember selected preferences and understand how visitors use its pages.
Clear information about website cookies
This Cookie Policy explains how cookies and similar technologies may be used when you visit this website. Cookies are small data files stored by a website in a visitor’s browser. They can help a website remember information, maintain basic functions and understand general patterns of website use.
The cookies used on a particular visit can depend on the pages viewed, the functions being used and the technical services active on the website at that time. For this reason, the exact cookie set may change when website functions are updated.
A practical view of cookie activity
Website Visit
When a visitor opens a page, the website may use necessary technical information to provide the requested page and its available functions.
Cookie Activity
Depending on the website function, a cookie may be created or read by the browser to remember a setting, support a function or provide general website measurement.
Preference Choice
Where a choice is available, visitors can manage non-essential cookie preferences through the relevant website controls or their browser settings.
Periodic Review
Cookie settings and website functions may be reviewed from time to time. If the cookie arrangement changes, this policy may also be updated to reflect the current website setup.
How cookie information is generally handled
The table below provides a practical summary of the main cookie arrangements described by this policy.
| Purpose | Website operation, selected preferences, available functions and general website measurement. |
|---|---|
| Session Cookies | Normally remain only for the active browser session and are generally removed when the session ends. |
| Persistent Cookies | May remain in the browser for a defined period depending on the function for which they are used. |
| Consent Record | Where a consent preference is recorded, it may normally be retained for up to 12 months before a fresh choice may be requested. |
| Visitor Control | Visitors can manage available cookie choices through website controls where provided and through browser settings. |
| Website Changes | The exact cookies in use may change when website functions, technical services or page features are updated. |
This policy describes the general categories and purposes that may apply. A specific cookie may be added, removed or replaced when a website function changes. The applicable technical cookie setting at the time of a visit may therefore differ from an earlier visit.
Managing cookies through your browser
Most modern browsers provide settings that allow visitors to view, remove, block or restrict cookies. The exact controls depend on the browser and device being used.
Review Stored Cookies
Browser settings may allow you to see which cookies are stored by websites and review information about their current status.
Delete Existing Cookies
Existing cookies can generally be removed through the browser settings. Removing cookies may also reset selected website preferences.
Restrict Future Cookies
Many browsers allow visitors to restrict or block cookies. Some website functions may not work correctly when required cookies are disabled.
Third-party services and embedded features
Some website pages may use technical services, embedded content, media or other functions supplied by third parties. Depending on the service involved, that provider may place its own cookies or use similar technologies when the relevant feature is loaded.
The operation and storage period of third-party cookies are determined by the relevant provider. Where a third-party service is used, visitors should also review the information provided by that service if they want to understand its own cookie practices.
We do not treat a third-party cookie as part of our own website cookie settings simply because the related feature appears on a page. The applicable provider’s own technical arrangements may apply separately.
Website settings and technical changes
Cookie behaviour can depend on the browser, device, operating system, website functions and technical services active at the time of a visit. For this reason, no website can guarantee that every browser will display or handle a cookie setting in exactly the same way.
Disabling or removing cookies may change how certain pages operate. In particular, functions that rely on stored preferences or temporary browser information may need to be selected again or may not operate as intended.
We aim to keep the information in this policy consistent with the website’s current arrangements. However, technical services and website features may be changed, replaced or updated from time to time. The exact technical configuration may therefore change without every individual cookie being listed in this policy.
This Cookie Policy explains website cookie practices in general terms and should be read together with the other privacy information applicable to the website.
Keeping this information current
This policy may be updated when website technology, cookie settings or available functions change.
New or updated website features may require changes to the cookie arrangements described here.
Changes to technical services may affect the cookies or similar technologies used on particular pages.
Cookie preferences may be requested again after the applicable 12-month review period or following certain changes to the website’s cookie arrangement.
