1. WHAT ARE COOKIES OR SIMILAR TECHNOLOGIES?

Cookies are very small text files or pieces of code, which often include an unique identifier. When you visit a website, the website will request to store this text file on your device in order to remember information about you, such as your language preference or login information. Other information gathered through cookies may include the date and time of visits and how you are using our website.

We also use similar technologies to cookies known as “web beacons”, “pixels” or “tags”. These technologies do a similar job to cookies, allowing website operators to count page views and understand how visitors interact with and respond to certain content on a webpage.

For the purposes of the remaining sections of this Cookie Notice, we refer to all cookies and similar technologies using the above features as “cookies”.

You should be aware that applications you use to access our Site, such as your website browser, may also place cookies on your device when visiting our Site, or other websites. An example of this would be where you sign in to Google Chrome using a Google Account (see Section 7 below). We do not have control over these third party cookies, so you will need to manage these cookies in the settings of the relevant applications.

2. WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN FIRST PARTY AND THIRD PARTY COOKIES?

We use “first party cookies” and “third party cookies” in connection with our Service. First party cookies are cookies placed by us to collect information about you. Third party cookies are cookies placed by third party website operators. Information about you collected by those third party cookies will be shared with the relevant third party. Please refer to the relevant third party website operator’s privacy notice for more details about the information they collect and how they use it

3. HOW LONG DO COOKIES LAST?

All cookies have expiration dates that determine how long they stay in your browser:

• Session Cookies – these are temporary cookies that are placed on your device during your browsing session and then expire (and are automatically erased) whenever you close your browser.
• Persistent Cookies – these are designed to last for a pre-defined period of time, which varies depending on the nature of the cookie. Persistent cookies stay in your browser until they reach their individual expiry date, or until you manually delete them (see Section 6 below).

• Essential Cookies – Essential cookies are those cookies which a website could not operate without. Essential cookies include cookies such as login cookies and shopping cart cookies.

These cookies also help to provide you with content relevant to your locale, for example allowing you to see the Site in your preferred language.
• Security, site and product integrity Cookies – These cookies help keep your account, data and the Site safe and secure. Such cookies can help us identify and impose additional security measures when someone may be attempting to access a Site account without authorisation, for instance, by rapidly guessing different passwords. These cookies also store information that allows us to recover your account in the event you have forgotten your password or to require additional authorisation if you tell us your account has been hacked.

This information is generally used to improve the website and the way visitors are able to move around it.

Such cookies recognise users of those social media sites when you view social media content on the website.
