Cookies
A cookie consists of information sent by a web server to a web browser,
and stored by the browser. The information is then sent back to the server
each time the browser requests a page from the server. This enables the web
server to identify and track the web browser.

to: keep track of you whilst you navigate the website. Session cookies will
be deleted from your computer when you close your browser.
We use Google Analytics to analyse the use of this website. Google Analytics
generates statistical and other information about website use by means of
cookies, which are stored on users’ computers. The information generated
relating to our website is used to create reports about the use of the website.
Google will store this information. Google’s privacy policy is available
at: http://www.google.com/privacypolicy.html. Most browsers allow you to refuse to accept cookies. (For example, in Internet Explorer you can refuse all cookies by clicking “Tools”, “Internet Options”, “Privacy”, and selecting “Block all cookies” using the sliding
selector.) This will, however, have a negative impact upon the usability
of many websites.
