Cookie Notice

First party cookies hosted on the website you are visiting. They are only set or retrieved by the website while you are visiting it, so they cannot normally be used to track activity or pass data from one site to another. However, the owner of that website can still collect data through their cookies and use that to change how the website appears to the user, or the information it displays.

Third party cookies are where the host domain or address is not the same as the website you are visiting. They are usually placed in a website via scripts or tags added into the web page. Sometimes these scripts will also bring additional functionality to the site, such as enabling content to be shared via social networks.

Online advertising is the most common use of third-party cookies. By adding their tags to a page, which may or may not display adverts, advertisers can track a user (or their device) across many of the websites they visit.

We might share your data collected via cookies with these third-party cookie providers. Where we do this, we have data processing agreements in place with all third-party providers to ensure that your personal data is handled securely and in accordance with data protection regulations. Your data might be transferred from the UK to the United States of America (US). Where your data is transferred outside of the UK, we make sure that your data is given the same level of protection. This may be achieved in one of the following ways:

• Adequacy decision: where the destination country has been recognised by the UK Government as providing an adequate level of protection for personal data, or where the data is transferred under the UK-US Data Bridge (a legal framework that allows UK organizations to transfer personal data to US companies that have self-certified under the EU-US Data Privacy Framework);
• Appropriate safeguards: where we use mechanisms such as the UK International Data Transfer Agreement (IDTA), or the UK Addendum to the European Commission's Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs).
