Cookies are very useful and do lots of different jobs. For example, they enable you to move between our web pages efficiently, they remember your preferences when you visit us again and generally improve your experience when browsing with us. They can also help to ensure that adverts you see online are more relevant to you and your interests.

Cookies last for different lengths of time depending on the job they do. There are session cookies and persistent cookies:

• Session cookies only last for your online session and disappear from your device when you close your browser
• Persistent cookies stay on your device after the browser has been closed and last for the period of time specified in the cookie

We also use a cookie to remember your cookie preferences. This means:

• If you delete all your cookies you will have to update your preferences with us again – we’ll ask you when you next visit our website
• If you use a different device, computer profile or browser you will have to tell us your preferences again

2. Functional cookies

   Functional cookies are used to provide services or to remember settings to improve your visit.

   You decide whether or not these cookies are used, but preventing them may mean we can't offer you some services, and will reduce the support we can offer you, such as ‘live chat’.

   • Provide proactive live chat sessions to offer you support
   • Show you when you're logged in to the website

Managing cookies in your browser

Most browsers will allow you to choose the level of privacy settings you want. You can block all cookies, or accept all cookies or pick a setting somewhere in between. This range lets you control your cookie settings, so you can:

• See what cookies you've got and delete them on an individual basis
• Block third party cookies
• Block cookies from particular sites
• Block all cookies from being set
• Delete all cookies when you close your browser

Deleting cookies means that any preference settings you have made on a website will be lost. If you’ve set your preferences to opt out of cookies, this setting will be lost too, as that information is stored in a cookie. Blocking all cookies means functionality on our websites will be lost, as described above. We don’t recommend turning all cookies off when using our websites.

If you want to reduce your cookie settings at any time – for example, if you accept all cookies, but later decide you don’t want a certain type of cookie – you’ll need to use your browser settings to remove any cookies dropped on your previous visit. Once you’ve changed your preference we won’t drop anymore cookies of that type.
