Cookies
In order to improve the quality of our website and services, we may from time to time send your computer what is known as a "cookie". Cookies are text files that identify your computer to our server. Cookies in themselves do not identify the individual user, just the computer used.
Like many other sites we use cookies whenever a user visits the site in order to track information such as how many times a site is visited by the same computer. Additionally, our site uses cookies to remember the display choices you make in certain areas of it. Only the site that posted the cookie can read it.
Users have the opportunity to set their computers to accept all cookies, to notify them when a cookie is issued, or not to receive cookies at any time. The last of these, of course, means that certain personalised services cannot then be provided to that user.
Please note that the websites to which this site may be linked may also make use of their own cookies.
