“Cookies”

A “cookie” is a small data file that can be placed on hard drives when you visit certain websites. Cookies were designed to help a website recognize a user’s browser as a previous visitor and thus save and remember any preferences that may have been set while the user was browsing the site. Like many commercial sites, our company may use cookies to collect information about how our site is used to improve the products and services we provide and to manage our telecommunications networks – for example we monitor pages visited through google analytics.  A cookie cannot pass on a computer virus and it does not capture or pass back any of the personal data that reside on your computer. We also use cookies as part of the process of signing you into any or our membership areas so that your computer will remember your log-in when you move from page to page.

If you prefer NOT to allow the use of cookies then you should disable them on your computer or browse away from our site.

Advertisers and partners may also use their own cookies. We do not control use of these cookies and expressly disclaim responsibility for information collected through them.

In these instances, we will not reveal your information to the third party but may inform you of such offers through email or through other means.  We do not monitor and are not responsible for the privacy policy of third party organisations and we accept no liability for any contract which you may enter into with the third party organisation.
