Although there may be a variety of different cookies that perform different functions, generally, there are two main types of cookies: ‘Session’ and ‘Persistent’ Cookies.
‘Session cookies’ (also known as in-memory cookies or transient cookies) allow us to track your actions during a single browsing session. They do not remain on your device afterwards: They expire (deleted from your computer or mobile device) at the end of a browser session or when you leave the website.
‘Persistent cookies’ remain on your device between sessions or for a pre-determined period of
time (as determined by the site operator). We use them to authenticate you and to remember
your preferences: The information from the persistent cookie is transmitted to the web
server every time you visit the originating website or every time you view a resource belonging
to that website. We can also use them to balance the load on our servers and improve your
experience on our site.
Session and persistent cookies can be either first or third party cookies.
A first-party
cookie is set by the website being visited.
A third-party cookie is set by a different
website. This may be used to enable functionality of third-party services (eg. media players,
Google Analytics, WebTrends, etc.) and/or provide third-parties with information. If third party
services collect information, they usually do so anonymously and in the aggregate to provide
information helpful to the service provider such as website trends, without identifying
individual visitors.
Local Shared Objects (otherwise known as ‘Flash cookies’) is another
example of a type of third party cookie used to manage basic permissions relating to the
embedded service like media players (i.e. YouTube, Adobe Flash, Shockwave, etc.) and to
check/monitor bandwidth or resource consumption. Flash cookies are stored on a user’s computer
much the same way as cookies are, however, it may not necessarily be possible to manage them at
browser level.
All our cookies fall within the classifications Strictly Necessary, Functionality and
Performance. None are classified as Behavioral Targeting.

cookies, generally through changing your browsing settings. It may also be possible to configure

reject the cookie. To manage use of cookies there are various resources available, for example,
the “Help” section of the browser may provide assistance.
You can also disable or delete
the stored data used by technology similar to cookies, such as Local Shared Objects or Flash
cookies, by managing the browser’s “add-on settings” or visiting the website of its
