What are cookies?
Most websites use cookies, including this one. A cookie is a small text file that a website sends to your computer or other device. When you visit a site again, the cookie is sent back to the website.

They remember that you have visited a website and this information is shared with other organisations, such as advertisers.

What happens if I don't allow websites to send me cookies?
This website will still work and you will be able to get the information you need from it. It means we won't be able to monitor how you use our site and help us make it as useful as possible.
In the future we may add features that rely on cookies and you would not be able to benefit from them. We will update the information on this page if and when this applies.
