Our Site uses cookies and/or other similar technologies to enhance & customise your user experience. Cookies are small text files placed on your device that enable us to remember your device, and which can be used to manage a range of features and content as well as storing searches and presenting personalised content. We use this information to ensure the proper functioning and security of our Site and Services and to optimize our Site or Services.
We may collect data about your use of the Services through the use of cookies, Internet server logs, tracking pixels (also called web beacons) and similar technologies. A cookie is a small text file that is placed on your computer or mobile device when you visit a website, that enables us to recognize your computer/device, store your preferences and settings, enhance your user experience by delivering content specific to your interests, perform searches and analytics, and assist with security administrative functions. An Internet server log is a file where website activity is stored. Server logs are used to track usage and provide security. A tracking pixel, which is also referred to as a web beacon or a clear GIF, is an electronic tag with a unique identifier that is embedded on webpages, in online advertisements and/or email. These pixels are designed to provide usage information, such as advertising impressions or clicks, measure popularity of the Services and associated advertising, and access user cookies.
What types of cookies do we use?
Third party cookies We use third parties to assist us in advertising, tracking aggregated and/or de-identified
site usage statistics, and providing content-sharing services to support the Services. These third parties
may also use cookies and similar technologies to collect similar information about your use of the Services.
For instance, the cookies may reflect de-identified data linked to or derived from data you voluntarily
have submitted to us, e.g., a hashed version of your email address, which we may share with service providers,
solely in non-human readable form. We do not control these third-party technologies, and their use is
governed by those parties’ privacy policies. We also allow other third parties (e.g., ad networks and
ad servers) to serve tailored ads to you on the Services, and to access their own cookies or other tracking
technologies on your computer, mobile phone, or other device you use to access the Site or use the Services.
Session and persistent cookies. We use both session cookies and persistent cookies. A session cookie
is used to identify a particular visit to our site. These cookies expire after a short time, or when
you close your web browser after using our Services. We use these cookies to identify you during a single
browsing session. A persistent cookie will remain on your devices for a set period of time specified
in the cookie. We use these cookies where we need to identify you over a longer period of time. For example,
we would use a persistent cookie if you asked that we keep you signed in.
We use these cookies and other technologies on the basis that they are necessary for the performance
of a contract with you, or because using them is in our legitimate interests (where we have considered
that these are not overridden by your rights), and, in some cases, where required by law, where you have
consented to their use.

If you choose to decline cookies, please note that you may not be able to sign in, customize, or use some features of the Services. For general information about cookies and how to disable them, please visit www.allaboutcookies.org We neither have access to, nor does this Policy govern, the use of cookies or other tracking technologies that may be placed on your computer, mobile phone, or other device you use to access the Services by non-affiliated, third-party ad technology, ad servers, ad networks or any other non-affiliated third parties.
