What cookies are

Cookies are small text files saved on your device while you browse. They remember your preferences, so pages work better the next time you come back. We also use similar stored objects for the same purpose.

Cookies we need

Some cookies are essential. They let you move around the site, open secure areas and make payments. Without them these parts of the service would not work properly.

Cookies from registration

When you sign up, cookies keep the details of your registration so we recognise you as our customer. They also help us understand what interests you, so your visits feel more personal.

Session, persistent and analytical cookies

A session cookie lives only for one visit and makes moving between pages faster. A persistent cookie stays on your device for a set time. An analytical cookie counts visitors and shows how people use the site, which helps us improve it.

Managing cookies

Most browsers accept cookies by default, but you can change the settings to refuse them. The browser's help menu explains how. Keep your browser up to date for the latest controls. If you turn cookies off, some interactive features may stop working.
