It is recommended that you leave on all cookies if you are not sure whether you need them or not in case they are used to provide a service that you use.

Types of Cookies

This site uses cookies that are strictly necessary for the performance of the site. These are essential in allowing you to move around the site and log in to secure areas, as well as ensuring the site works properly on your device. Without these cookies, key features of the site will not work properly, and some may not work at all.

Functionality cookies are used to improve the functional performance of the website and make it easier for you to use. These cookies remember choices you have made on site such as your log in information, allowing you to stay logged in on your next visit and as you navigate around our site.

Analytical cookies are used to monitor the performance of our site. These collect information about how our site is being used which allows us to review and improve our products and services. In some cases we use cookies provided by trusted third parties. Google Analytics, which is one of the most widespread and trusted analytics solutions on the web, is used to help us understand how our site is used and ways that we can improve your experience. These cookies may track things such as how long you spend on the site and the pages that you visit so we can continue to produce engaging content. For more information on Google Analytics cookies, see the official Google Analytics page.

Other third-party analytics are used in a similar way, to track and measure usage of this site so that we can continue to produce engaging content.

From time to time we test new features and make subtle changes to the way that the site is delivered. This means new cookies may be added to the site that are not listed in this Cookies Policy. When we are still testing new features, these cookies may be used to ensure that you receive a consistent experience whilst on the site and ensure we understand which optimisations our users appreciate the most.

Several partners advertise on our behalf and use affiliate tracking cookies. These simply allow us to see if you have come to the site through one of our partner sites so that we can credit them appropriately, and where applicable allow our affiliate partners to provide any bonus that they may provide you for making a purchase.

Hopefully that has clarified things for you and as was previously mentioned if there is something that you aren’t sure whether you need or not it’s usually safer to leave cookies enabled in case it does interact with one of the features you use on our site. However, if you are still looking for more information then you can contact us via our Contact Us page.
