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 cookies, but some parts of the website may then not work.

  • Session cookiesSession cookies enable the websites you are visiting to keep track of your movement from page to page, so you are
    not asked for the same information, you have already given to the website. Cookies allow you to proceed through many
    pages of the website quickly and easily without having to authenticate or reprocess each new area you visit. Session
    cookies allow users to be recognised within a website so any page changes or item or data selection you do is
    remembered from page to page.
    We use session cookies to operate our websites. An example of this is the shopping cart feature. When you visit one
    page of a catalogue and select some items, the session cookie remembers your selection, so your shopping cart will
    have the items you selected when you are ready to check out. Without session cookies, if you click checkout, the new
    page does not recognise your past activities on prior pages and your shopping cart will always be empty.
  • Preference cookiesA preference cookie is a persistent cookie that enables a website to remember your preferences on subsequent visits,
    speeding up or enhancing your experience of ser-vices or functions offered.
    Besides authentication, website features that are usually made possible by persistent cookies include: language
    selection, theme selection, menu preferences, internal site bookmarks or favourites, among many others.
    We use preference cookies to remember our cookie setting, so that you are not asked to set your preference again at
    your next visit.
  • Security cookiesSecurity cookies make our website more secure and protect against Cross-Site Re-quest Forgery (CSRF) attacks.

    A CSRF attack happens when a malicious web site or program causes your web browser to perform an unwanted action on
    a trusted site for which you are authenticat-ed. This could result in money transfers, purchases or password
    changes.
