Privacy Policy

We will only use any information that we collect about you lawfully (in accordance with the Data Protection Act 1998 and the EU Privacy and Communications Directive).

We are committed to protecting your privacy.

Cookies used on this website are mainly for the following third party services: Google Analytics.

By continuing to use this website without adjusting your browser's cookie settings, you agree that we can place these cookies on your device. As is true with most websites, our server will automatically log data regarding each visit such as your IP address, browser type, referring/exit pages, and operating system.

We may use this information to monitor server errors, server administration or to monitor visitor behaviour. It is not possible for this to be disabled on a per-user basis so you must leave this website if you do not agree to this happening.

This privacy policy applies to this website only and does not apply to any websites that this website may link to. If you have any questions/comments about privacy, you should contact us.

What are cookies?

We and those providing services we adopt may collect information about your use of our website through cookies. Cookies are small text files stored on your computer, tablet or other internet device that help websites remember information about your visit. Most major websites use cookies.

What are the main types of cookies?

The cookies we may use on this site are broadly grouped into the four categories:

Essential - Some of the cookies on our website are essential for us to be able to provide you with a service you have requested. An example of this would be a cookie used to enable you to log into your account on the website or which allows communication between your browser and the website. Our cookie preference cookie described in the section "How can I reject or opt out of receiving cookies?" is also an essential cookie. Your rejection of these cookies might prevent full use of this site.

Analytics - We use analytics cookies to helps us understand how users engage with our website. An example is counting the number of different people coming to our website or using a particular feature, rather than the total number of times the site or feature is used. Without this cookie, if you visited the website once each week for three weeks we would count you as three separate users. We would find it difficult to analyse how well our website was performing and improve it without these cookies.

Social Sharing - We use cookies to allow you to share content directly on the social networking/sharing sites like Facebook, Twitter or Google+. Examples would be if you wanted to "like" or "tweet" about a page or feature on our website.

Interest-Based Advertising - You will have noticed that when you visit websites you will be shown adverts for products and services you may wish to buy. The money made by website owners for showing third party adverts on their websites often pays for the cost of running the website and therefore usually allows you to use the website without having to pay a registration or usage fee. Currently this site does NOT show third party advertiements, and therefore, these type of cookies are not used.
