Your Privacy Is Important To Us

What are cookies?

 
Contrary to popular belief, cookies are not programs or applications. In fact, they don’t really do anything at all. They are simple text files which typically contain a few basic pieces of information: site details and a unique user ID.
 
On your first visit to our website a cookie file is downloaded to your browser. The next time you visit our site your browser will check to see if it has a relevant cookie stored and send that information back to our website server. This enables our site to ‘know’ that you’ve visited in the past and update our user information with basic details about your visit. No personal or confidential information is able to be uploaded to our site in this way.
 

What types of cookies we use

 
Our website uses just a few cookies: Google Analytics cookies for storing anonymous information about your visit, such as which pages you visit and how long for, and a user ID cookie for allowing website admins to login and make changes to the website (this latter cookie doesn’t affect visitors to our site).
