Web Beacons

As well as cookies, we use other technologies to recognise and track visitors to our Sites.

Web beacons allows us, for example, to monitor how users move from one page within our Sites to another, to track access to our communications, to understand whether users have come to our Sites from an online advertisement displayed on a third-party website, to measure how ads have been viewed and to improve Sites performance.

Targeted Advertising

Please note that third parties (including, for example, advertising networks and providers of external Sites like web traffic analysis Sites) use cookies, over which we have no control. These cookies are likely to be analytical/performance cookies or targeting cookies. These companies may use information about your visits to this and other websites in order to provide relevant advertisements about goods and Sites that you may be interested in. They may also employ technology that is used to measure the effectiveness of advertisements.
