Some cookies are strictly necessary to deliver the website and you cannot refuse them without impacting how our website functions, while other cookies are used to enhance the performance and functionality of our website but without these cookies, certain functionality may become unavailable.

Third Party Cookies served through our Website

In addition to our own cookies, we may also use various third-parties’ cookies on our website to provide services to you, track and report usage statistics of the website, and track your activities on our website and on other websites.

Google
Google Analytics gathers information allowing us to understand interactions with our website and ultimately refine that experience to better serve you. Google AdWords gathers information allowing us  to better target advertising and Google Dynamic Remarketing gathers information allowing us  to provide remarketing advertising messages to you on other websites after you leave our site.

Other tracking technologies

We and other third party service providers may use other, similar technologies from time to time, like web beacons, pixels (or “clear gifs”) and other tracking technologies. These are tiny graphics files that contain a unique identifier that enable us to recognise when someone has visited our website or, in the case of web beacons, opened an e-mail that we have sent them. For example, these may allow us or a third party service provider to monitor the traffic patterns of users from one page within our website to another, to deliver or communicate with cookies, to understand whether you have come to our website from a link on a third-party website or an online advertisement displayed on a third-party website, to serve targeted advertisements to you and others like you, to improve site performance, and to measure the success of marketing campaigns.

While you may not have the ability to specifically reject or disable these tracking technologies, in many instances, these technologies are reliant on cookies to function properly; accordingly, in those instances, declining cookies will impair functioning of these technologies.

Blocking Cookies

You can choose to block cookies if you wish. As noted above,  depending on the cookies, this can impair your use of the website.  Blocking cookies is typically controlled through your Browser settings and varies with different browsers. In Google Chrome, you can find the settings by navigating to  Settings > Advanced> Privacy & Security > Content Settings > Cookies > Block > Add.
