Cookies
A cookie is a small text file that is stored by your web browser when you visit them. A cookie file can contain information such as a unique user ID that a website can use to remember the pages you’ve visited.
Cookies help us understand usage patterns, improve functionality, and personalise content. You can manage your cookie preferences through your browser or via our cookie banner.
Pixels
A pixel tag is a small image file on a website. Pixel tags allow us to count users who have visited certain pages of our website, to deliver branded services, to serve targeted advertising, and to help determine the effectiveness of promotional or advertising campaigns. When used in HTML-formatted e-mail messages, pixel tags can tell the sender whether and when the e-mail has been opened. You can limit pixel tracking through browser and device controls, and by opting out with advertising platforms including Google and Meta.
If you don’t want the advertising you see on the internet to be tailored to your browsing, you can opt-out of interest-based advertising from the third-party services that are members of the Network Advertising Initiative (NAI) here. Google and AdRoll are members of the NAI. Visit the NAI site for more detail.

What are your rights?
You have the right to:
- Access the personal information that we hold about you, and ask us to update or correct it if it is not right

Depending on your location, you may also have the right to:
- Ask us to stop using your personal information for certain purposes, including purposes that you have previously consented to, and
- Ask us to destroy or delete your personal information.
There are some exceptions to these rights. For example:
- We cannot give you access to personal information about other people or commercially sensitive information.
- We may not be able to destroy or delete the personal information we hold about you if we are required by law to keep it.
We will agree to your request if it is reasonable and lawful for us to do so, and the right applies in the jurisdiction in which the request is made. If we do not agree or partially agree, we will:
- Write to you to explain our decision (except if it’s unreasonable to do so), and
- Give you information on your options, including how to make a complaint.
Submitting a Rights Request
You can contact us at any time (via the contact details below) to make a request in relation to the above rights.
There is no fee to make a request. We may charge a fee to carry out some requests – such as access requests – if they are complicated or will take a long time. If there is a fee, we will let you know how much it is likely to be, so you can choose if you want to go ahead.
We’ll try to fulfil your request within 30 calendar days, but complicated requests may take more time.
Before we manage your request, we may need to confirm your identity. We do this to ensure that we keep the personal information that we hold secure.
