3. How we use cookies

We may use cookies for the following purposes:

Strictly necessary cookies

These cookies are required for the website to operate properly or to provide a feature or service requested by you.

They may be used for purposes such as:

  • Maintaining website security;

First-party cookies are set directly by our website.

Third-party cookies are set by external organisations whose services or content may be included on our website. These may include services used for website analytics, maps, videos, security, forms, social media or other embedded content.

Third-party providers may process information collected through their technologies in accordance with their own privacy and cookie policies.
