What are cookies?
Cookies are small text files that a website stores on your browser or device. Similar technologies include local storage, pixels and device identifiers. Some are set by us (“first-party”) and others by third parties such as Google (“third-party”). Session cookies are deleted when you close your browser; persistent cookies remain until they expire or you delete them.
How we ask for your consent
If you visit from the UK, the EEA or Switzerland, a consent message provided by Google’s certified consent management platform appears on your first visit. Non-essential cookies for advertising and analytics are only used in line with the choices you make there. You can change or withdraw your consent at any time through the privacy and cookie settings link or button shown by the consent tool. Strictly necessary cookies do not require consent.
