What Are Cookies?

Cookies are widely used because they enhance your browsing experience and allow websites to work more efficiently.
 

Types of Cookies
 

Cookies can be categorised into several types depending on their purpose:

These collect anonymous data on how visitors use the website, such as which pages are visited most, how long users stay on pages, and if any errors occur. We use this information to improve the site’s speed, layout, and content.

• Functional Cookies

Functional cookies remember choices you make, like your preferred language or region. This allows us to tailor the website to your needs and provide a better, more personalised experience.

• Marketing and Analytics Cookies

While we don’t directly serve advertisements, we use third-party services like Google Analytics to analyse visitor behaviour. These cookies help us understand how users find and interact with our site, allowing us to improve our online presence and content.
