Cookies are used to uniquely identify a person and are treated as personally identifiable information. Cookies are used for analytics and advertising to improve the experience and relevance of this platform.
We want users to understand what cookies are in clear, jargon-free terms, whilst also being transparent regarding how they are used. Please see the sections What are cookies?, What cookies do we use?, and How do I turn cookies off? so you are fully informed.
As a user of this platform, we want you to have a choice. Simply browsing this platform does not mean you automatically agree to the use of cookies.
When you first visit this platform, a pop-up banner will ask you to accept or reject the use of cookies. This pop-up clearly explains why cookies are used and asks you to make an affirmative action by clicking Continue. If you previously accepted and wish to withdraw your consent, simply click on the cookie button at the bottom of the platform.
Cookies are small text files that are stored on your browser or device by platforms, apps, online media, and advertisements.
First-party cookies are set by the domain you are visiting (this platform).
Third-party cookies are set by other organisations while you are using this platform (for example, Google analytics or advertising services).
Cookies may also have different lifespans:
Session cookies last only while your browser is open and are deleted automatically when you close it.
Persistent cookies remain after your browser is closed and may recognise your device when you return.
We may use analytics service providers to generate statistical and other information about the use of this platform by using cookies.
They allow us to recognise and count visitors, understand how often they return, how long they stay, and how they move around the platform. This helps improve how the platform works, ensuring users find what they are looking for more easily. Reports may also be generated from this data.
These cookies record your visits, the pages you view, and the links you follow. This helps make the content and advertising on this platform and other platforms more relevant to your interests. This information may be shared with carefully selected third parties for this purpose.
These cookies allow the platform to remember choices you make and provide a more personalised and enhanced user experience, including content tailored to your interests.
We include social media plugins that allow content to be easily shared. These services may use their own cookies. They cannot read cookies set by this platform, and we cannot read cookies they set. However, they may use cookies for traffic measurement or to recognise when you are logged into their services.
Other external services (such as advertising networks, web traffic analysis providers, and recommendation engines) may also use cookies beyond our control. These are usually analytical/performance cookies or targeting cookies.
This platform uses cookies to distinguish you from other users, improve your experience, and recommend relevant content. When you use this platform, you will be asked whether you agree to the use of cookies. If you do not agree, you can continue to use the platform, but certain features may not function properly.
You can manage cookies through your browser settings. This allows you to accept or reject new cookies, delete existing ones, or receive notifications each time a cookie is set.
If you wish to opt out of cookies, adjust your browser settings to reject them. More detailed guidance is available at websites such as All About Cookies and Your Online Choices.
Please note: rejecting cookies may limit your ability to use some features of this platform.
This Cookies Policy may change from time to time. Any updated version will always be available on this platform. By continuing to use this platform, you agree to the most recent version of this policy.
