Do you use any Third-Party Cookies?
Third party cookies are not set by us, but are set by other domains than the website you visit. These cookies are placed on website visitor’s devices by third-party outlets. Common examples of these third-parties can include social media platforms, analytical providers, and advertising networks.
We do not share any information collected from our cookies with any third parties.
How can I control these cookies?
You are able to control your use of cookies on our website. You can do the following:
Reject all cookies
Select certain cookies you wish to use, and reject other cookies and;
Deactivate the use of third-party cookies
To decide which essential, analytical, functionality and targeting cookies our website sets, follow the below steps:
Open the Cookies & visitor data panel
Switch the toggle off beside Cookie Banner
Under Advanced Privacy settings, next to Non-essential Cookies, select Restrict from the dropdown menu.
Click Save.
You can select “Reject All” in our cookie banner. But if you do so, this also blocks essential cookies, which means you may not be able to access all parts of our website, and our website may not work to the best of its ability for you. This also rejects third-party cookies.
You can also deactivate third-party cookies with your chosen browser. These steps vary slightly dependent on your browser choice, but more often than not can be located on the Settings page.
Google Analytics also provide the option for you to opt out of being tracked by them across all websites you visit. To do so, we recommend visiting http://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout]
