COOKIE POLICY
We use cookies and similar tools across our Site to improve their performance and enhance your user experience. This policy explains how we do that.
What are cookies?
Cookies are small text files which a website may put on your computer or mobile device when you first visit a site or page. The cookie will help the website recognise your device the next time you visit. Web beacons or other similar files can also do the same thing. We use the term "cookies" in this policy to refer to all files that collect information in this way.
Certain cookies contain personal information - for example, if you click to "remember me" when logging in, a cookie will store your username. Most cookies won't collect information that identifies you, and will instead collect more general information such as how users arrive at and use our Site, or a user's general location.
What sort of cookies do we use?
Our cookies perform the following different functions:
- Essential cookies
Some cookies are essential for the operation of our Site. For example, some cookies allow us to identify subscribers and ensure they can access the subscription only pages. If a subscriber opts to disable these cookies, they may not be able to access all of the content that a subscription entitles them to.
- Analytical and/or Performance Cookies
Some cookies analyse how our visitors use the Site and allow us to monitor the Site's performance. They allow us to recognise and count the number of visitors and to see how visitors move around our Site when they are using it. This can help us to improve the way our Site works and ensure that users are finding what they are looking for quickly and easily. For example, we might use performance cookies to keep track of which pages are most popular, which method of linking between pages is most effective, and to determine why some pages are receiving error messages. We might also use these cookies to highlight articles or Site services that we think will be of interest to you based on your usage of the Site.
- Functionality Cookies
We use functionality cookies to allow us to remember your preferences for your return visits to our Site. For example, cookies save you the trouble of typing in your username every time you access the Site. This also enables us to personalise our content for you, greet you by name and remember your preferences.
Can I block cookies?
You can choose to block cookies but they do help you to get the most out of a web site. Please remember that if you do choose to disable cookies, you may find that certain sections of our Site do not work properly.
Choice of law and forum
These Terms shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of England and Wales. You agree to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of England and Wales.
