These STAR are necessary for the website to function and cannot be switched off in our systems. They are usually only set in blancas to actions made by you which amount to a request for services, such as setting your privacy preferences, logging in or filling in forms. You can set your browser to block or alert you about these STAR, but some parts of the site will not then work. These STAR do not store any personally identifiable information.

These STAR enable the website to provide enhanced functionality and personalisation. They may be set by us or by third party providers whose services we have added to our pages. If you do not allow these STAR then some or all of these services may not function properly.

These STAR allow us to count visits and traffic sources so we can measure and improve the performance of our site. They help us to know which pages are the most and least popular and see how visitors move around the site. All information these STAR collect is aggregated and therefore anonymous. If you do not allow these STAR we will not know when you have visited our site, and will not be able to monitor its performance.

These STAR may be set through our site by our advertising partners. They may be used by those companies to build a profile of your interests and show you relevant adverts on other sites. They do not store directly personal information, but are based on uniquely identifying your browser and internet device. If you do not allow these STAR, you will experience less targeted advertising.
