It outlines what these technologies are, why we use them, and your rights to control our use of them under UK data protection laws, including the UK GDPR and the Data Protection Act 2018.

2. What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small data files placed on your computer or mobile device when you visit a website. They are widely used by website owners to make websites work, operate more efficiently, and provide reporting information. Cookies set by the website owner are called "first-party cookies". Cookies set by parties other than the website owner are called "third-party cookies".

3. Why Do We Use Cookies?

We use first-party cookies for several reasons. Some cookies are required for technical reasons in order for our website to operate securely and correctly. We refer to these as "essential" or "strictly necessary" cookies. Other cookies enable us to track and target the interests of our users to enhance the experience on our online platform. These are "analytics" or "performance" cookies.

4. How Can You Control Cookies?

You have the right to decide whether to accept or reject non-essential cookies. You can exercise your cookie preferences by using our Cookie Banner options ("Accept All" or "Reject All") when you first visit the website, or by updating your preferences at any time.
