Cookie Policy
This cookie policy is designed to help you understand more about how cookies work and how we use them.
Cookies explained
Cookies are small file containing a line of text that is sent and stored on your computer when you visit a web site. Cookies help to provide a better and faster experience by helping a website remember information about your visit to make your next visit easier and the site more useful to you.
Our Cookies
The types of cookies we use all fall into one of four categories:
1. Strictly Necessary and Functional
You need these cookies for our websites to work properly. They are essential to help your devices download or stream the information, or so you can move around websites and use their features. Without these cookies, content, products or services cannot be provided.
For example, if the website is only permitted to function in certain geographic areas, you’ll need a cookie to enable you to access it or these cookies support the function of certain operations on our sites or services, we use a music radio cookie to enable you to listen to any of our audio streams or a video streaming one to enable you to watch video clips.
If you delete or block these cookies, some of the features on our site may not work effectively or at all.
2. Improving performance and your browsing experience
These cookies allow us to understand how our visitors engage with our websites and apps, for example count the total amount of page visits and sources of traffic so that we can measure and improve the performance of our sites and apps. They also enable us to understand how users without personally identifying visitors, on an anonymised aggregated basis, use our sites.
For example, remembering if you’ve been to the application or website before or restricting the number of times you’re shown a particular online advertisement.
3. Analytics
We like to keep track of what websites, information and links are popular and which ones do not get used so much, to help us keep our information relevant and up to date.
Our applications, web locations, websites and communications you get from us contain small invisible images known as ‘web beacons’ or ‘pixels’. These are used to manage the interaction between you and the online information or email and allow us to assess the effectiveness of the communication.
4. Personalisation and Advertising These cookies allow us to provide a high-quality experience by customising the content that we offer you across our sites.
We might use the information collected by these cookies to highlight articles or site services that we think will be of interest to you based on the articles and other content you have viewed when visiting any of our websites.
They enable us to deliver to you relevant advertising (our own and that of our Partners) on our websites and in our mobile apps. We use these cookies to inform us when we have shown you an advert, to ensure we do not show you the same content too often. We also use these cookies to measure the effectiveness of the advertising that you see or hear on our services.

How other companies’ cookies are used
Some of our websites and platforms will contain links to other companies’ sites. If you follow one of these links a cookie might be used to tell the other site that you came from one of our sites. That other site may then pay us a small amount for the successful referral. For more information, see the Internet Advertising Bureau’s guide about how affiliate marketing works. Note that when you visit those other companies’ sites, they will have their own privacy notices which set out what personal data they collect and how they will use it.
