Introduction to Cookies
Cookies are small pieces of data that a website sends to a visitor’s computer or mobile device while they are browsing. These files are then stored in the user’s web browser and can later be retrieved by the original site or a third-party site that recognizes the cookie. Cookies were designed to remember things about your visits to a site, like your preferences, the items you’ve viewed or purchased, or your login information.

This website uses various types of cookies to ensure functionality and enhance user experience. The following categories of cookies may be used:

Necessary Cookies: These are essential for the website to function and deliver you a safe, operable, and effective browsing experience. They enable core functionality such as security, network management, and accessibility. Without these cookies, services like shopping baskets and user logins would not function.
-
Performance Cookies: These cookies collect information about how visitors use our website, for instance, which pages visitors go to most often, and if they get error messages from web pages. These cookies do not collect information that identifies a visitor; all information collected is aggregated and therefore anonymous. The information is only used to improve how our website works.
-
Functionality Cookies: These cookies allow the website to remember choices you make (such as your user name, language, or the region you are in) and provide enhanced, more personalized features. For instance, a functionality cookie can be used to remember your specific preferences or to recognize your device when you return to our site.
-
Targeting/Advertising Cookies: These cookies are used to deliver adverts more relevant to you and your interests. They may also be used to limit the number of times you see an advertisement as well as help measure the effectiveness of advertising campaigns.

Third-Party Cookies
We may work with third parties who may also set cookies during your visit to our sites. These cookies are generally persistent (long-term) and are used for targeting/advertising purposes as described above.
