Why do we use cookies?

In broad terms we use cookies on our site for the following purposes:

  • Analytical purposes: Analytical cookies allow us to recognise, measure and track users of our site in anonymous form. The information collected includes the number of visitors to our site, where visitors have come to our site from and the pages that they have visited. This helps us to improve the way our site works, for example, by determining whether site visitors can find information easily, or by identifying the aspects of websites that are of the most interest to them.
  • Usage preferences: Some of the cookies on our site are activated when visitors to our sites make a choice about their usage of our site. The site then ‘remembers’ the settings preferences of the user concerned. This allows us to tailor aspects of our site to the individual user.
  • Disclaimer: We use cookies on our site to record when a site visitor has seen a policy, such as this one, or provided consent, such as consent to our Terms of Use/Disclaimer. This helps to improve the user’s experience of our site – for example, it avoids a user from repeatedly being asked to consent to the same terms.

For instance, we use cookies to distribute requests among multiple servers, authenticate users and determine what features of our site they can access, verify the origin of requests, keep track of information about a user’s session and determine which options or pages to display in order for our site to function.
  • Functional purposes: Functional purpose cookies store information that is needed by our applications to process and operate. For example, where transactions or requests within an application involve multiple workflow stages, cookies are used to store the information from each stage temporarily, in order to facilitate completion of the overall transaction or request.
