We use the following types of cookies:
- First-party cookies – cookies set by the website displayed in the browser window – identified by the domain name in the address bar of the browser window.
- Session cookies – cookies that expire at the end of a browser session, starting with the time when a user opens the browser window, and finishing when the user exits the browser.
- Persistent cookies – cookies that ‘persist’ (are stored) in the device after the end of a browser session and therefore can allow the preferences or actions of the user to be remembered when they return to the website.
