Cookie Policy

The Website uses cookies to distinguish you from other users of the Website, improve your user experience and allow us to improve the Website.

Many websites use cookies in order to improve a user’s experience by allowing that website to ‘remember’ you. If a website doesn’t use cookies, it will think you are a new visitor every time you move to a new page on the site – for example, when you enter your login details and move to another page it won’t recognise you and it won’t be able to keep you logged in.

Cookies can either last only for the duration of your visit (using a ‘session cookie’) or remain on your device for repeat visits (using a ‘persistent cookie’). Cookies served by us while you are on the Website are called “first party cookies”.  Cookies served by other companies that are not operating the Website are called “third party cookies.”  So, we may allow Google to set a cookie on your browser while you visit the Website, which would be a third party cookie.

Your choices

You have the right to choose whether or not to accept cookies. Use of our website does not require the acceptance of cookies and you will be able to read and view all the information we have if you choose to reject them. However, interactive features of the Website, such as competition entries and event bookings, will require you to sign in and will require the acceptance of our cookies as described above.

If you want to block cookies then you can do this through your browser via the Help function. You can also visit www.allaboutcookies.org and www.youronlinechoices.eu for further information about cookies, including how to see what cookies have been set on your device and how to manage and delete them.

Cookies we use

When you register details on the Website, for example to enter a competition, we set a cookie that allows us to identify you as you browse the Website. This ‘essential cookie’ will be removed by your browser when you close the window, unless you tick the option to allow us to ‘remember you’ on your next visit. It must be accepted by your browser if you wish to sign in and use the personalised features of the Website.

We also use cookies on this website to track the performance of the Website via Google Analytics. These cookies help us to understand how to improve the website content for the benefit of all visitors. When you sign in or register to use the Website (e.g. to enter a competition) a cookie is set to allow us to identify you as you browse the Website.

Third Party Cookies

Sometimes we use third party websites (e.g. Facebook, Twitter, YouTube) to embed photos and video content into our web pages. Pages with this embedded content may set cookies from these websites onto your device.

When you use one of the social website share buttons, a cookie may be set by the service you have chosen to share content through.

We do not control the application of these cookies, and recommend that you check the relevant third party website for more information about these before using such services.

Our website does not include any advertising services that would be able to profile you, perform behavioural analysis or use your visit to our site to deliver targeted advertising. However, we do include Facebook, Twitter and other third party social networking tools that may set their own cookies in order to remember who you are and what you’ve been doing. These services cannot access any of the personal information you have provided to us.

The following table sets out details of some of the specific cookies that we use on the Website, and why we use them.
