8.0 COOKIES

A cookie is a small text file stored by the browser, which can be read back by the browser later. Cookies are used to help a website remember information, and without them many websites would be severely impaired and unable to offer many basic functions. The cookies on our website can be divided into two types:

  • Essential cookies – vital for core website functionality
    These cookies are necessary for functions such as remembering if a user is logged in or not, their location, their preferred language as well as preferences such as whether cookies are allowed or not. Turning off these kinds of cookies will severely impact the usability of the website.
  • Optional cookies – not vital
    These cookies include those used for tracking visitor behaviour so we can establish which pages are the most popular, which pages aren’t working, what kind of device (eg. Desktop, MacBook, iPhone) our visitors use. All of this helps us to optimise our website so we are catering for the correct audience, showing relevant content and that our website works well across the most popular devices.  Other similar cookies include those used by the live chat service. Turning off these types of cookies will mean we can’t tell when you’ve visited our website, what you did while you were there, and that some services such as live chat won’t appear as they rely on cookies for their basic operation. More info on our third party cookies providers Google, Hotjar and Tawk.to can be found in section 7.
