A cookie is a very small text document, which often includes a unique identifier. Cookies are created when your browser loads a particular website. The website sends information to the browser which then creates a text file. Every time you go back to the same website, the browser retrieves and sends this file to the website’s server.

This may occur when the part of the website you’re visiting makes use of a third party analytics or marketing automation/management tool or includes content displayed from a third party website, for example, LinkedIn. You should review the privacy and cookie policies of such services to find out how they use cookies and whether your cookie data will be transferred to a third country. We’ve set out below which third party cookies we use.
