A cookie is a small text file which is placed onto your computer (or other electronic device) when you access our website. We use cookies and Google Analytics which uses Web Beacons and page events on this website to:

• keep track of the items stored in your shopping basket and take you through the checkout process;
• recognise you whenever you visit this website (this speeds up your access to the website as you do not have to log in each time);
• carry out research and statistical analysis to help improve our content, products and services and to help us better understand our and customer requirements and interests;
• target our marketing and advertising campaigns and those of our partners more effectively by providing interest-based advertisements that are personalised to your interests; and

Although we may obtain information about your computer or other electronic device such as your IP address, your browser and/or other internet log information, this will not usually identify you personally.

In certain circumstances we may collect personal information about you — but only where you voluntarily provide it (e.g. by completing an online form) or where you purchase goods or services from us.

In most cases we will need your consent in order to use cookies on this website. The exception is where the cookie is essential in order for us to provide you with a service you have requested (e.g. to enable you to put items in your shopping basket and use our check-out process).
