Cookies and Tracking

We may use a cookie file containing information that can identify the computer you are working from.

We may use the information generated by “cookies” to:

You do not need to have cookies turned on to use the Website, but you may need them for customisable areas of the Website that we may develop in the future. If your cookies are turned off we will not have any control over the frequency of display of certain ad formats. This could affect your experience of the Website.
