Cookies do not record who you are or where you live, but they can tell us which websites you have visited on your Device. We can combine this with other information we hold about you.
There are different types of Cookies:
- (i) Session cookies: These are stored temporarily on your Device when you visit our Website and are deleted when you close your browser.
