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 webpage 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.

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.

​

Individuals rights and how to exercise them

Individuals have certain rights over their personal data and data controllers are responsible for fulfilling

When practically possible, once we are informed that any personal data processed by us is no longer accurate, we

will make corrections (where appropriate) based on your updated information.

​

Withdrawal of consent

Where we process personal data based on consent, individuals have a right to withdraw consent at any time. We
