We use cookies to keep our website running, provide customer support, learn how people are using our website and improve our services. Here’s more about what that actually means.
Cookies are small text files that websites store on your browser and computer (or whatever device you’re using to visit).
It’s like the website writes a reminder on a tiny, virtual post it note, and sticks it onto you. That note might be something like: “This person has a teddy bear in their shopping basket” or “This person wants to stay logged in.”
Cookies are how websites seem to magically remember who you are. When you go back to a website, it checks your computer for the cookies it left there – reminding itself who you are, what pages you’ve visited, the account settings you chose, things like that.
Almost everything you do on the internet involves cookies in some way. Here's more about cookies and how they work.
All the cookies we use play a part in fraud detection, prevention and investigation to help us keep our users secure. For example, cookies can help us identify if someone has accessed an account that doesn’t belong to them, and show us how they used that account.
We integrate a few other services into our website – for example, we use a service called Hotjar to generate pop up surveys for us.
These services might use cookies of their own. You can read their privacy policies here:
Most browsers automatically accept cookies, but you can decline some or all non-essential cookies if you want to. Check the settings on your browser and whatever device you’re using to visit the website. Or search “how to turn off cookies”.
If you do block cookies, that might mean you won’t be able to access some parts of our website (or any of it).
