1. What are cookies and similar technologies?
Cookies are text files containing small amounts of information which are downloaded to your device (e.g. computer, smartphone, electronic device which accesses the internet) when you visit a website. Cookies can be useful because they allow a website to recognise a user’s device, preferences and generally help to improve your online experience. For this purpose, we also use technologies similar to cookies, such as pixel tags. We will use “cookies” to refer to cookies and similar technologies below. You can find more information about cookies at: www.allaboutcookies.org
You can choose whether to accept the use of cookies at any time via our Consent Management Platform. However, if you disable cookies and similar technologies, your experience on the Site may be diminished and some features may not work as intended.
2. What cookies and similar technologies do we use?
For specific cookie information, please review our current cookie list.
To the extent any personal information is collected through cookies, our Privacy Notice applies and complements this CST Notice.
Essential Cookies
Essential cookies are strictly necessary and enable you to navigate the Site and to use its services and features and keep the Site secure. Without these cookies, we may not be able to provide the Site or certain services or features. These are always active and do not require your consent.
Preference Cookies
Preference cookies collect information about your choices and preferences and allow us to remember language or other local settings and customize the Site accordingly.
Analytics Cookies
Analytics cookies collect information about your use of the Site and enable us to improve the way it works. For example, analytics cookies show us which are the most frequently visited pages on the Site, help us record any difficulties you have with the Site, and show us whether our advertising is effective or not. This allows us to see the overall patterns of usage on the Site, rather than the usage of a single person. We use the information to analyze Site traffic, but we do not examine this information for individually identifying information.

Pixel tags
Pixel tags (also known as web beacons and clear GIFs) are used to, among other things, track the actions of users of the Site, measure the success of our marketing campaigns, and compile statistics about usage of the Site and response rates.
Local storage
Local storage is used for storing larger amounts of data locally in a user’s browser to enhance performance and provide a more efficient user experience. They may be used, for example, when you interact with a chatbot.
Browser or Device Information
Certain information is collected by most browsers or automatically through your device, such as your Media Access Control (MAC) address, computer type (Windows or Mac), screen resolution, operating system name and version, device manufacturer and model, language, Internet browser type and version, and the name and version of the Site you are using. We use this information to ensure that the Site functions properly.
