IP addresses and cookies
We may collect information about your computer, including where available your IP address, operating system and browser type, for system administration and optimisation. This is statistical data about our users’ browsing actions and patterns and does not identify any individual.
For the same reason, we may obtain information about your general internet usage by using a cookie file which is stored on the hard drive of your computer. Cookies contain information that is transferred to your computer’s hard drive. They help us to improve our site and to deliver a better and more personalised service. They enable us:
- To estimate our audience size and usage pattern.
- To store information about your preferences, and so allow us to customise our site according to your individual interests.
- To speed up your searches.
- To recognise you when you return to our site.
- You may refuse to accept cookies by activating the setting on your browser which allows you to refuse the setting of cookies. However, if you select this setting you may be unable to access certain parts of our site. Unless you have adjusted your browser setting so that it will refuse cookies, our system will issue cookies when you log on to our site.
Generally, the cookies that are used on our sites can be broken down into the following categories:
Session cookies
These cookies are used ‘in-session’ each time you visit and then expire when you leave a site or shortly thereafter: they are not stored on your device permanently, do not contain any personal data and help by minimising the need to transfer personal data across the internet. These cookies can be deleted, or you can refuse to allow their use, but this will hamper the performance and your experience in using the sites. These cookies also take time stamps that record when you access a site and when you leave a site.
Tracking cookies
These cookies enable us to recognise repeat visitors to our sites. By matching an anonymous, randomly generated identifier, a tracking cookie keeps track of where a user of our sites came from, which search engine they may have used, which link they clicked on, which keyword they used and where they were in the world when they accessed a site. By monitoring this data, we can make improvements to our sites.
Persistent cookies
This type of cookie is saved on your device for a fixed period (sometimes for a few hours, sometimes for a year or longer) and is not deleted when the browser is closed. Persistent cookies are used where we need to remember who you are for more than one browsing session. For example, this type of cookie can be used to store your preferences, so that they are remembered for the next visit to a site.
Performance or analytical cookies
Performance cookies are used to analyse how the sites are used and to monitor their performance, which allows us to improve your experience in using the sites. These cookies help us to tailor the content of the sites to reflect what the site users find most interesting and to identify when technical issues with the sites arise. We may also use this data to compile reports to help us analyse how sites are used, what the most common issues are and how we can improve the sites.

You can also manage many companies’ cookies used for online advertising via the consumer choice tools created under self-regulation programs in many countries, such as the EU-based http://www.youronlinechoices.com/uk/your-ad-choices.
