Privacy & Cookies

This page describes how we treat the information provided by visitors, what other information we gather and how we use it, why we sometimes need to store “cookies” and how to prevent this.

In common with almost all professionally run websites, this website logs the IP address of each visitor to keep it running reliably. This is also essential for protecting the website and its visitors from malicious attacks, including malware infection.

This website provides information as a service to visitors such as yourself. To do this reliably and efficiently, it sometimes places small amounts of information on your computer or device (e.g., mobile phone). This includes small files known as cookies.

The cookies stored by this website cannot be used to identify you personally.

How Cookies Are Used

We use cookies to understand what pages and information visitors find useful and to detect problems such as broken links or pages that are taking a long time to load.

We sometimes use cookies to remember a choice you make on a page when you have moved to another page if that information can be used to make the website work better. For example:

  • avoiding the need to ask for the same information several times during a session (e.g. when filling in forms), or

  • remembering that you have logged in so that you don’t have to re-enter your username and password on every page.

Cookies for Analytics

We use analytics to measure how many visitors are using the website, which pages interest them and so on, and this involves storing the following cookies:

  • Name: _utma
    Typical content: randomly generated number
    Expires: 2 years

  • Name: _utmb
    Typical content: randomly generated number
    Expires: 30 minutes

  • Name: _utmc
    Typical content: randomly generated number
    Expires: when user exits browser

  • Name: _utmz
    Typical content: randomly generated number + info on how the site was reached (e.g. directly or via a link, organic search or paid search)
    Expires: 6 months
