What are cookies?

Cookies are small text files placed on your computer by websites or sometimes by email. A cookie file is stored in your web browser and this means that you can use the site more efficiently and do not have to re-enter your details each time you visit us. Cookies also make sure that you receive the most relevant information from the site.

Cookies do not contain any information that personally identifies you, but personal information that we store about you may be linked, by us, to the information stored in and obtained from cookies.

Types of cookies

The length of time a cookie stays on your device depends on its type. There are two types of cookies:

  1. Session Cookies – These are temporary and only exist for the time you are on the website. Session cookies help us remember what you chose on the previous page, avoiding the need to re-enter information.

General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR)

The new EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) introduces new responsibilities, including the need to demonstrate compliance, more stringent enforcement and a significant increase in penalties compared to the current Data Protection Act (DPA) that it will supersede. In other words, individuals now have a greater say on where, how, when and why their personal data is gathered and disposed of. Under the GDPR we are legally obliged to protect any personal information about clients, staff or suppliers.
