The Cookies in Play

Three groups. Essential: needed for the site to work at all, including security and storing your own cookie preference. Analytics: used where an analytics tool is running, to count visits and page views in aggregate. Advertising: set by ad partners where advertising is served, for frequency capping, measurement and personalisation.

Cookies From Partners

Where a third party sets a cookie through this site, that party’s privacy policy applies to it rather than ours. Several industry mechanisms let you opt out across many vendors at once — the DAA and NAI tools in the US, and Your Online Choices in the EU.

First, the Basics

The word ‘cookie’ describes a small file a site stores on your device through your browser, readable on later visits. Pixels, local storage and device identifiers do the same work; everything below applies to those as well as to cookies proper.

Changing Your Settings

Cookie controls live in your browser’s privacy settings, and can block or delete cookies for this site or all sites. Where we present a consent banner, the choice you make there is stored and applied. Do Not Track and Global Privacy Control are respected. Disabling non-essential cookies is safe; disabling essential ones is not.
