What is a cookie?

A cookie is a small text file that allows the Site to store tokens of information (an ‘identifier’) in your browser, used only by our Site. On certain pages of our site, cookies are used to help us track your interests while you browse the internet, so we can tailor more relevant advertising to you, and to understand what is important to you. We also use third party cookies and beacons for our advertising and marketing efforts.

You can also set up your browser to accept or opt-out of cookies before they are installed on a case-by-case basis. In addition, you can regularly remove cookies from your terminal via your browser.
