Cookies are small units of data temporarily stored on the hard disk of your computer by your browser that are necessary for using our website. Cookies allow the website to store unique identifier (which is an anonymous number) in your browser while you are on the website.

Cookies do lots of different and useful jobs to make the website work, or to work more efficiently, generally improving your online experience, and helping us to offer you the best product and services.

There are two broad categories of cookies:

FIRST PARTY COOKIES

First party cookies are set by the website you are visiting and they can only be read by that site.

THIRD PARTY COOKIES

Third party cookies are set by other organizations that we use for different services. For example, we use external analytics services and these suppliers’ set cookies on our behalf in order to report what’s popular and what’s not. The website you are visiting may also contain content embedded from, for example, YouTube and these sites may set their own cookies.

• enabling a service to recognize your device whenever you visit our website so you don’t have to give the same information several times during one task, e.g., filling out a web form or a web survey;
• Carry out research and statistical analysis to help improve our content, products and services and to help us better understand our visitor/customer requirements and interests to support the product finder;
• allowing the video player to function properly;
• measuring how many people are using services and detect their browser’s capabilities, so they can be made easier to use and there’s enough capacity to ensure they are fast; analyzing anonymized data to help us understand how people interact with the different aspects of our online services so we can make them better.
