What are cookies?

A cookie is a small file, typically of letters and numbers, downloaded on to your device when you access certain websites. Cookies are then sent back to the originating website each time to re-visit the site. Cookies are also useful because they allow a website to recognise what devises visitors are viewing the site with.

Cookies cannot be programmed, cannot carry viruses, and cannot install malware on the host computer. However, they can be used to track users' browsing activities.

Cookies are used by most websites for a variety of reasons - often very practical reasons to do with the operation of the website. However, they are also used to monitor how people are using the website (e.g. which pages are visited and how long is spent on each page).

If you want to learn more about cookies, including how to control and disable them, please visit http://www.allaboutcookies.org.

We may obtain information about your general internet usage by using technology such as "cookies", which store information on the hard drive of your computer. This type of technology helps us to improve our site and to deliver a better and more personalised service for you. They enable us:

  1. understand visitor numbers;
  2. to store information about a user's preferences, and so allow us to customise our site according to your interests and offer you goods or services in which we believe you will be interested;
  3. to speed up your searches; and
  4. to recognise you when you return to our site.

These functions include using online forms (e.g. our brochure download form) or any feature that requires login. We use a cookie to remember your cookie preferences, so this has a couple of consequences:

  1. If you delete all your cookies you will have to tell us your preference again; and
  2. If you use a different device, computer profile or browser you will have to tell us your preference again.

You may refuse to accept some technologies such as cookies by activating settings on your browser which allows you to refuse the setting of technologies such as cookies. If you refuse all cookies, you may be unable to access certain parts of our site and some interactive functions on our site, such as forms, may not work properly.

 

What happens if you ignore the question about opting out, but continue to use our website?

If you ignore the above question regarding use of cookies but continue to use our website, then we will assume you accept our use of cookies and the website will continue to set cookies as necessary unless you otherwise block them.

 

That concludes the quick guide.

Expiration

__utma

This cookie is typically written to the browser upon the first visit to your site from that web browser. If the cookie has been deleted by the browser operator, and the browser subsequently visits your site, a new __utma cookie is written with a different unique ID. This cookie is used to determine unique visitors to your site and it is updated with each page view. Additionally, this cookie is provided with a unique ID that Google Analytics uses to ensure both the validity and accessibility of the cookie as an extra security measure.

2 years from set/update.

__utmb

This cookie is used to establish and continue a user session with your site. When a user views a page on your site, the Google Analytics code attempts to update this cookie. If it does not find the cookie, a new one is written and a new session is established. Each time a user visits a different page on your site, this cookie is updated to expire in 30 minutes, thus continuing a single session for as long as user activity continues within 30-minute intervals. This cookie expires when a user pauses on a page on your site for longer than 30 minutes. You can modify the default length of a user session with the _setSessionCookieTimeout() method.

30 minutes from set/update.

__utmc

This cookie is no longer used by the ga.js tracking code to determine session status.

Historically, this cookie operated in conjunction with the __utmb cookie to determine whether or not to establish a new session for the user. For backwards compatibility purposes with sites still using the urchin.js tracking code, this cookie will continue to be written and will expire when the user exits the browser. However, if you are debugging your site tracking and you use the ga.js tracking code, you should not interpret the existence of this cookie in relation to a new or expired session.

Not set.

__utmz

This cookie stores the type of referral used by the visitor to reach your site, whether via a direct method, a referring link, a website search, or a campaign such as an ad or an email link. It is used to calculate search engine traffic, ad campaigns and page navigation within your own site. The cookie is updated with each page view to your site.

6 months from set/update.

_ga

This cookie is used with Google Universal Analytics. This cookie allows Google to track unique users via a client identifier that is randomly generated.

2 years from set/update.

The third party often provides these services in return for recognising that you have visited our website.
