Our Website uses the following types of cookie each of which has its own specific lifetime:
- First Party Session cookie:This type of cookie is set directly by us and may only last until you close your browser. This allows our Sites to link the actions of a user during a browser session so that out Sites are able to store certain information whilst the user is browsing our Sites.
- First Party Persistent cookie: This type of cookie is set directly by us and lasts for longer, for example, to enable our Sites to recognise you when you return to our Sites. It is stored on a users’ device in between browser sessions and allows the preferences or actions of the user across our Site (or in some cases across different websites) to be remembered.
- Third party cookies: These are cookies that are not set by us but are instead set by a third party. Online advertising is a common example that often uses third party cookies.
