Cookies
5.6
Our Website may use 'cookies' from time to time. Cookies are small text files that are transferred to a user's computer hard drive by a website for the purpose of storing information about a user's identity, browser type or website visiting patterns. Cookies may be used on our Website to monitor web traffic, for example the time of visit, pages visited and some system information about the type of computer being used. We use this information to enhance the content and services offered on our Website.

Cookies are sometimes also used to collect information about what pages you visit and the type of software you are using. If you access our Website or click-through to our Website from a link in an email we send you, a cookie may be downloaded onto your computer's hard drive.
5.8
Cookies may also be used for other purposes on our Website.
5.9
You can configure your browser to accept all cookies, reject all cookies, or notify you when a cookie is sent. Each browser is different, so check the "Help" menu of your browser to learn how to change your cookie preferences.
5.10
If you disable the use of cookies on your web browser or remove or reject specific cookies from our Website or linked sites then you may not be able to gain access to all of the content and facilities in those websites.
Advertising networks and Custom Audiences
5.11
We use network advertisers to serve advertisements on our Website as well as unaffiliated websites or other media (e.g. social networking platforms). This enables us and network advertisers to target advertisements to you for products and services for which you might be interested. Ad network providers, advertisers, sponsors, and/or traffic measurement services may use pixels, cookies, JavaScript, web beacons (including clear GIFs), Flash LSOs, and other tracking technologies to measure the effectiveness of their ads and to personalize advertising content to you. These pixels, cookies and other technologies are governed by each entity’s specific privacy policy, not this Privacy Policy. We may provide these advertisers with information, including Personal Information, about you.
5.12
Without limiting section 5.11, unless you have opted out of receiving direct marketing from us in accordance with paragraph 10 of this Privacy Policy, we may disclose certain information (such as your email address) to social networks or advertisers such as Facebook Custom Audiences (for more information on Facebook Custom Audiences click here or to opt-out, go to the Facebook ad preferences page), so that we can better target ads and content to you and others with similar interests on other websites or media (Custom Audiences). We may also work with other ad networks (such as Google) and marketing platforms that enable us and other participants to target ads to Custom Audiences submitted by us and others. You may also control how Facebook and other ad networks display certain ads to you, as explained further in their respective privacy policies or by using the opt-outs described below.
5.13
You may be able to opt out of many ad networks. For example, you may go to the Digital Advertising Alliance (DAA) Consumer Choice Page for information about opting out of interest-based advertising and their choices regarding having information used by DAA companies. You may also go to the Network Advertising Initiative (NAI) Consumer Opt-Out Page for information about opting out of interest-based advertising and their choices regarding having information used by NAI members.
5.14
Opting out from one or more companies listed on the DAA Consumer Choice Page or the NAI Consumer Opt-Out Page may opt you out from those companies’ delivery of interest-based
content or ads to you, but it does not mean you will no longer receive any advertising through our Website or on other websites. You may continue to receive advertisements, for example, based on the particular website that you are viewing (i.e. contextually based ads). Also, if your browsers are configured to reject cookies when you opt out on a consumer choice website, your opt-out may not be effective.
5.15
If you do not want us to, or if you no longer want us to, use or disclose your Personal Information such as your email address to third parties for the purpose of Custom Audiences as described in this paragraph 5, you can opt out in accordance with paragraph 10of this Privacy Policy.

We use this information to debug errors, optimise pages, enhance the user experience and support customers. We do not generally use this information to identify individuals, though such session information may become Personal Information; for example, if we identify a particular session in the context of a customer support call.
