5. Categories of Cookies

5.1 Strictly necessary cookies

These cookies are required for the website to function securely and correctly. They may be used for functions such as:

• website and server security;
• fraud and spam prevention;
• cookie-consent management;
• form and session functionality;
• load balancing;
• network management; and
• remembering essential privacy choices.

Strictly necessary cookies cannot usually be disabled through our cookie preference tool because the website may not work correctly without them. You may still block them through your browser, but certain website functions may become unavailable.

5.2 Functional cookies

Functional cookies allow the website to provide enhanced features and remember choices you make, such as:

• language or display preferences;
• previously selected settings;
• embedded map or video preferences; and
• enhanced form or communication features.

If you do not allow these cookies, some enhanced website features may not function as expected.

5.3 Analytics and performance cookies

These cookies help us understand how visitors use the website. They may collect information such as:

• the pages you visit;
• how long you remain on a page;
• which buttons or links you select;
• the website or campaign that referred you to us;
• general device and browser information;
• approximate geographical information; and
• website errors and performance information.

We use this information to measure and improve the website. Analytics cookies will be activated only in accordance with your cookie preferences where consent is required.

5.4 Marketing and advertising cookies

Marketing cookies may be used to measure advertising campaigns, understand which advertisements led visitors to the website and deliver more relevant advertising.

These cookies may track activity across websites and may allow advertising providers to build an interest profile associated with a browser or device.

Marketing and advertising cookies will not be activated unless you have provided consent through the website’s cookie preference tool, where such consent is required.

5.5 Social media cookies

Where social media features or embedded content are used, the relevant social-media provider may place cookies or collect information about your interaction with that feature.

These services may be able to associate your website activity with your social-media account where you are logged in to that service.

6. Cookies and Services Used on This Website

The exact cookies used may vary depending on the website functionality, your cookie choices and updates made by third-party service providers.

The following table describes the main technologies that may be used on this website:

Some services listed above may not be active at all times. The website’s cookie preference tool and the cookies stored in your browser provide the most current indication of the services activated for your visit.

7. Third-Party Services

This website may include links to, or technology supplied by, third-party services such as:

• Google Analytics;
• Google Maps;
• Google Ads;
• Facebook and Instagram;
• WhatsApp;
• video-hosting services;
• website security and spam-prevention providers;

These third parties may collect information directly from your browser or device when their services are activated. Their processing is governed by their own terms and privacy policies.

We do not control the duration or operation of cookies placed independently by third parties. We encourage you to review the privacy and cookie information published by the relevant service provider.

Simply following an ordinary link to a third-party website may take you away from this website. The third party’s privacy and cookie policies will then apply.

8. Your Consent and Cookie Choices

When you first visit the website, you may be shown a cookie notice or preference tool that allows you to:

• accept all optional cookies;
• reject optional cookies;
• select individual cookie categories; or
• continue with only strictly necessary cookies.

Strictly necessary cookies may be activated without optional cookie consent because they are required to operate and secure the website.

Where consent is required, functional, analytics, marketing and social-media cookies will not be activated unless you select the relevant category.

You may withdraw or change your cookie consent at any time. Withdrawing consent does not affect the lawfulness of processing that occurred before the consent was withdrawn.

9. Managing Cookies in Your Browser

Most browsers allow you to view, block or delete cookies through their privacy or security settings.

Depending on your browser, you may be able to:

• block all cookies;
• block third-party cookies;
