How we use Cookies

​

A cookie is a small file which asks permission to be placed on your computer’s hard
drive. Once you agree, the file is added and the cookie helps analyse web traffic or lets
you know when you visit a particular site. Cookies allow web applications to respond to
you as an individual. The web application can tailor its operations to your needs, likes
and dislikes by gathering and remembering information about your preferences.

We use traffic log cookies to identify which pages are being used. This helps us analyse
data about web page traffic and improve our website in order to tailor it to customer
needs. We only use this information for statistical analysis purposes and then the data
is removed from the system.

Overall, cookies help us provide you with a better website, by enabling us to monitor
which pages you find useful and which you do not. A cookie in no way gives us access
to your computer or any information about you, other than the data you choose to share
with us. You can choose to accept or decline cookies. Most web browsers automatically
accept cookies, but you can usually modify your browser setting to decline cookies if
you prefer. This may prevent you from taking full advantage of the website.

Our website may contain links to other websites of interest. However, once you have
used these links to leave our site, you should note that we do not have any control over
that other website. Therefore, we cannot be responsible for the protection and privacy of
any information which you provide whilst visiting such sites and such sites are not
governed by this privacy statement. You should exercise caution and look at the privacy
statement applicable to the website in question.

controlling the frequency of our mailings.

We will never share, sell, or rent individual personal information with anyone outside
