Cookies are small text files that are placed on your computer in order to identify (i) your web browser, (ii) the activities of your computer on our website and (iii) your activity in connection with our marketing efforts. For example, cookies allow us to statistically monitor how you are using our website to help us improve our online offerings. We may also use cookies to determine the popularity of certain content areas. Cookies can also allow a web server to recognise a user when they return to a website, for example automatically providing a 'Hello Mr Smith / Mrs Jones' message.

In addition to any cookies that we place on your computer, cookies may also be placed on your computer by third parties that we use to display or serve advertisements or to collect Non-Personally Identifiable Information in order to provide advertising-related services.

We may select and use different third parties from time to time to track website usage through action tags on our Website and on our advertisements on other websites.

Periodically, upon our request, the third parties we use may report the anonymous data that they collect on our behalf back to us for our internal use and analysis and our treatment of this anonymous data is governed by the terms of this Privacy Policy.

By using cookies and action tags together, we are able to gain valuable information to improve our website and measure the effectiveness of our advertising and marketing campaigns. We do not disclose any of your personally identifiable information to our advertising partners through the use of cookies or action tags.

Please note that advertisers and other third parties may also use their own cookies or action tags when you click on their advertisement or link to their website or service, on or from our website.
