Cookies

To ensure our site works correctly for you, we sometimes place small data files called cookies on your device. This is common practice across the internet as a whole, and in general provides a smoother user experience.

A cookie is a small text file that a website saves on your computer or mobile device when you visit the site. It enables the website to remember your actions and preferences (such as login, language, font size and other display preferences) over a period of time, so you don’t have to keep re-entering them whenever you come back to the site or browse from one page to another.

 

How Do We Use Cookies?

A number of our pages use cookies to remember:

• your display preferences, such as contrast colour settings or font size if applicable
• if you have already replied to a survey pop-up that asks you if the content was helpful or not (so you won’t be asked again)
• if you have agreed (or not) to our use of cookies on this site

Cookies are also stored by Google Analytics, the Google service which measures the effectiveness and efficiency of the website.
