What are cookies and why do we use them?
We use cookies to enhance your experience using our website, as almost all websites do today. Cookies are small text files that store information on your computer for a variety of functions.
We use cookies to:
Keep the website running as you’d expect (for example keeping you logged in as you browse different webpages)
Let you share things you like on your social networks.
Cookies also help us evaluate our website. Knowing visitor levels, what device our visitors are using, which services people like the best and use the most, social networks shares and how people have found us (search engines and links for example) helps us to make the website better for us and for you!
We will never use cookies to:
Store your personal information (unless you want us to, for example the ‘Remember Me’ button you see on the login page)
Pass on your information to third parties.
Types of cookies and what we each one for:
First Party: These are cookies set by us and only usable by us. They are the ones that keep you logged in during a browsing session .
Third Party: These are cookies set by third parties that we use. The only third party cookies we use are for evaluating our website (we use Google Analytics for this), and those that allow you to share things on your social media sites.
Session Cookies: These are temporary cookies that are deleted when you close your browser. These are the ones that keep you logged in as you browse from page to page.
If you still don’t want us to use cookies, that’s fine. Here’s some information on how to disable them:

Click the ‘Privacy’ tab, and choose ‘use custom settings for history’ from the drop down box. Then you can uncheck the ‘Accept cookies from sites’ box to remove all cookies, or ‘Accept third-party cookies’ to just remove third party cookies. You can also choose to delete cookies every time you close firefox, or make it so you approve every cookie as they are about to be used by a site by keeping the ‘accept cookies’ box checked and choosing ‘I close firefox’ or ‘ask me every time’ in the ‘Keep until:’ drop down box.

There you will get the option to block all cookies, accept all cookies, or accept cookies just from sites you go to regularly.
