Cookies
A
cookie is a small amount of information that’s downloaded to your computer or
device when you visit our Site. We use a number of different cookies, including
functional, performance, advertising, and social media or content cookies.
Cookies make your browsing experience better by allowing the website to
remember your actions and preferences (such as login and region selection).
This means you don’t have to re-enter this information each time you return to
the site or browse from one page to another. Cookies also provide information
on how people use the website, for instance whether it’s their first time
visiting or if they are a frequent visitor.
We
use the following cookies to optimize your experience on our Site and to
provide our services.
Cokies
The
length of time that a cookie remains on your computer or mobile device depends
on whether it is a “persistent” or “session” cookie. Session cookies last until
you stop browsing and persistent cookies last until they expire or are deleted.
Most of the cookies we use are persistent and will expire between 30 minutes
and two years from the date they are downloaded to your device.
You

removing or blocking cookies can negatively impact your user experience and
