Granting us permission to use cookies
If the settings on the software (your browser) that you are using to view this website are adjusted to accept cookies, we take this, and your continued use of our website, to mean that you are fine with this. Should you wish to remove or not use cookies from our site, you are welcome to do so. Doing so will however likely mean that our website will not work as you would expect it to.
Turning cookies off
You can usually switch cookies off by adjusting your browser settings to stop it from accepting cookies. Doing so will however likely limit the functionality of our website (and a large proportion of the world's websites), as cookies are a standard part of most modern websites.
It may be that your concerns around cookies relate to what has become known as spyware. Rather than switching off cookies in your browser, you may find that anti-spyware software achieves the same objective by automatically deleting cookies considered to be invasive.
