Cookie policy
This cookie policy explains what cookies are and how we use them, the types of cookies we use (i.e. the information we collect using cookies and how that information is used) and how to manage the cookie settings.
What are cookies?
Cookies are small text files that are used to store small pieces of information. They are stored on your device when the website is loaded on your browser. These cookies help us make the website function properly, make it more secure, provide better user experience, understand how the website performs and to analyse what works and where it needs improvement.
How do we use cookies?
As with most online services, our website uses first-party and third-party cookies for several purposes. First-party cookies are mostly necessary for the website to function the right way, and they do not collect any of your personally identifiable data.
The third-party cookies used on our website are mainly for understanding how the website performs, how you interact with our website, keeping our services secure, and all in all they help provide you with a better, improved user experience and speed up your future interactions with our website.
Types of cookies we use
You can view the full list of cookies below, but here are some examples of the types of cookies we use on this website and why.
Keeping you logged in
We use cookies to keep you logged into your account. This means you don’t need to log back in every time you visit the site. If you wish to log out at any time, you can just click the 'log out' link on your dashboard. If you are using a shared computer, we recommend logging out of your account every time you leave the site.
Google Analytics
We use Google Analytics to collect information on browsing. Google Analytics uses cookies to tell us how many people visit the site, what pages they’re reading and the types of browsers and devices they use to visit the site. All of the information that is collected is anonymised and cannot be used to identify you.
We use Demographics and Interest reporting. To achieve this, we connect data via first-party (Google Analytics) and third-party (Google Ads) cookies, using Google Signals which enables reporting information to include aggregated data from users who have Ads personalisation switched on. No individual user data is available to us. We can see aggregate reports only, for the subset of users who enable Ads personalisation in their Google account.
Users can opt out of Demographics and Interest reporting by either not accepting Analytics cookies in the website cookie banner (and therefore not being tracked at all by Google Analytics), or by disabling Ads personalisation in their own Google account settings.
Manage cookie preferences
You can manage your cookie preferences at any time by clicking the 'Cookie Settings' tab at the bottom right of your screen. This will let you revisit the cookie consent banner and change your preferences or withdraw your consent right away.
In addition to this, different browsers provide different methods to block and delete cookies used by websites. You can change the settings of your browser to block/delete the cookies.
