We use cookies to improve the performance of our site and give you the best experience we can. Cookies are small files, placed onto your device’s memory, or hard drive when visiting most websites. They help the site ‘remember’ if you’ve been there previously. In some cases it means it can put on screen things of interest to you. We use cookies for these types of activity:
- Experience – to track visitors on our website (where they’ve come from, how long they stay and what they look at when on our site).
- Security – to protect your personal data and prevent fraudulent activity.

Note: You can turn cookies off but if you do this you may not be able to use all services on our websites and you might see more pop-ups and other intrusive advertising, as we won’t be able to limit what you see using cookies. Some of the cookies are set by business partners (e.g. analytics companies) to track and collect browsing behaviour. Others are used to show specific content to you. (We don’t control how these cookies are set).
We permit third parties such as, but not limited to: Google, Facebook and LinkedIn to place cookies and other tracking code on our website to collect your data for the purposes outlined above. See our Cookie Policy for more on this.

Marketing
Where you have given consent to market you we will send you our marketing and promotional materials for services, products, surveys, competitions, events and other activities we think useful to you.
Where permitted we may market you with the products of carefully selected third parties.
From time to time, we may use your information to contact you for market research purposes. We may contact you by email, phone or mail.
We (and third parties under contract with us) use customer contact information to personalise the types of information you receive from us, to determine customer satisfaction with products and/or services we have provided and to improve the operation of our services to you.

We may use this data to make decisions about entering and continuing any transaction with you or any related transactions with you or anyone in your household.
We use online behavioural advertising (OBA) which allows us to deliver targeted advertising to visitors. As you browse our site, some of the cookies used are advertising cookies, so we can understand what sort of pages you are interested in. It then generates adverts which we believe may interest you based on your use of our site. The OBA techniques we use will not collect personal information such as your name, email address, postal address or phone number. We may also share anonymised behavioural data with advertising partners. This may mean that when you are on other websites, you will be shown advertising based on your behaviour on our website. This is known as Behavioural Retargeting and is another form of OBA that allows us to show you ads based on your browsing patterns and interactions with other sites.
You can withdraw your consent to any marketing at any time by writing to us at the address in the Contact Us section below.
