Cookies are small text files placed on a computer, phone or other device when a website is visited. Similar technologies, such as local storage, pixels and tags, may also store or access information on a device.
Cookies can help a website function, remember preferences, protect forms and accounts, measure performance, or support embedded and advertising services.
We may use cookies and similar technologies to:
Non-essential cookies should not be placed until the required consent has been obtained. Strictly necessary cookies may operate without consent because the requested website service cannot function properly without them.
These are required for essential website functions, security, form protection, network management and storing privacy choices. They cannot normally be switched off through the website’s consent tool.
These remember optional preferences or enable enhanced features. Disabling them may affect convenience or certain website functions.
These help us understand how visitors use the website, identify errors and improve performance. Where required, they are used only after consent.
These may measure campaigns, limit repeated advertising or help provide relevant advertising. They are not used unless the appropriate consent has been provided.
The table below is a publication template. It must be checked against a current cookie scan of the live website.

When you first visit the website, the cookie banner should allow you to accept or reject non-essential cookies and, where available, choose categories individually.
You can change or withdraw consent at any time using the website’s cookie-settings control:
Implementation note: connect the link above to the reopen function supplied by your cookie-consent plugin. Until that is configured, it will not open a settings panel.
Most browsers allow you to view, delete or block cookies through their privacy or security settings. Blocking all cookies may prevent parts of this website or other websites from working correctly.
Browser controls are separate from the consent choices offered by this website. Consult the help documentation for your browser or device for current instructions.
Pages may contain services supplied by third parties, such as video players, maps, social-media content, payment services or analytics tools. Those providers may place or read their own cookies after the relevant service is enabled.
Third-party providers control their own cookies and privacy practices. Their policies should be reviewed separately. Where practical, embedded services should be blocked until the visitor has made the relevant consent choice.
We may update this policy when website functionality, plugins, service providers, legal requirements or cookie practices change. The revised version will be published on this page with an updated date.
We also recommend repeating a cookie scan after installing or updating significant plugins, adding embedded services, changing analytics tools or launching advertising campaigns.
