Website Analytics

We use Google Analytics to monitor and analyse website usage and make improvements to the site. Google Analytics collects statistical information about website use by using javascript and cookies. This information is stored on Google's servers. It is only used in aggregate form to track trends and habits. It isn't used to monitor the browsing habits of individuals.

If you don't want Google Analytics to track your website usage you can install a browser plugin: Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on.

Cookies

We use cookies on this website. Cookies are small text files that are placed on your computer by websites that you visit. They are widely used in order to make websites work more efficiently, as well as to provide information to the owners of the site.

This website sets a session cookie that is used to monitor visitor numbers and mange the session for logged in users. It is also used to remember your preferences for font size and text colour. This cookie is discarded when you leave the site.

Google Analytics also sets a number of cookies that are used to collect anonymous usage statistics: Cookies set by Google Analytics.

By using this website you agree that we can place these types of cookies on your computer.

You can change your browser settings to block cookies. However, you may find that this has a negative impact upon the usability of many websites. In the case of this site it will mean that you will not be able to use the accessibility settings to change the font size and text colour.
