Why do we have a Cookie Policy?
This Cookie Policy sits in line with the UK`s Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulations (“PECR”) and its EU counterpart the Privacy and Electronic Communications Directive (“PECD”).

What are cookies?
A cookie is a small file that is stored on the hard drive of your computer, smartphone, or other device. With the help of this file, it is possible to recognise your device/IP address and to reuse information about pages you have already visited or to record functions you have used.
We use both our own and third-party cookies. Third-party cookies are used by external partners, such as partners who provide content for our websites, suppliers who are responsible for the various features of the website, or programs we use for our analytics and marketing. Through these third-party cookies, these external partners may collect data, such as your IP address and information about your browsing behaviour.
