What are cookies?
How we use cookies

- Performance – these are used to analyze the way our Site works and how we can improve it.
- Functionality – these help to enhance your experience by doing things like remembering products you’ve added to your basket.
- Targeting/advertising – these are used to share some information with third parties who we advertise with, so we know how you’ve reached our Site. We can also use cookies to identify the parts of the Site that you are interested in. We then use this information to show you advertisements and pages we think may also be of interest to you, to tailor how we communicate with you, or to tailor the contents of the communications we send to you. If you prefer, you can opt out of these. Tailoring of content means it includes information reflecting the interest you’ve shown in the content of our web pages or offers or promotions that we think may interest you, and to improve how we respond to your needs.
