We may receive information about you from third parties such as: business partners and data processors in technical, payment and/or delivery services; advertising, marketing, digital and social media agencies; data brokers; analytics providers; academic institutions; search information providers; and credit reference agencies.
We may also receive information about you from publicly accessible content, such as public databases or social media platforms. When we do collect publicly available data about you, we will honor this Privacy Policy when we store and process it.
If you choose to register and sign in by using a social media or other third-party account as an identity service (such as your Facebook or Google account), the authentication of your account is managed by that third party. We will collect your name, email address and any other information that you agree to share with us at the time you give permission for your account with us to be linked to your third-party account.
You should be aware that personal data (such as your name, social media handle, image, avatar, email address, or other identifier) that you voluntarily make publicly available by posting online to other users (e.g., on social media, forums, comments, or in chat rooms) could be collected and disclosed by others.

Cookies Policy
What is a cookie?
Cookies are text files containing small amounts of information which are downloaded to your personal computer or mobile device when you visit a website. Cookies may then be read by the originating website on each subsequent visit. Cookies are useful because they allow a website to recognise a user’s device, and set permissions for the user based on that recognition.
How long are cookies stored for?
Persistent cookies – These cookies remain on a user’s device for the period of time specified in the cookie. They are activated each time that the user visits the website that created a particular cookie.
Session cookies – These cookies allow website operators to link the actions of a user during a browser session. A browser session starts when a user opens the browser window and finishes when they close the browser window. Session cookies are created temporarily. Once you close the browser, all session cookies are deleted.
Cookies do lots of different jobs, like letting you navigate between pages efficiently, remembering you if you have logged in to a site, and generally help improve the user experience. You have the ability through your browser to block any or all cookies from our Sites. However, please be aware that our Sites may not function in the manner intended if some or all cookies are blocked.
Cookies used on our Sites
A list of the cookies used on our Sites by category is set out below. By using our Sites, you agree that we can place these types of cookies on your device. Not all types of cookies may be set during any particular visit to a site.
Required cookies – These cookies enable services you have specifically asked for. These cookies are essential in order to enable you to move around our Sites and use their features, such as accessing secure areas of our Sites.
Performance cookies – These cookies collect information about how visitors use our Sites, for instance: which pages visitors go to most often, if they get error messages from particular web pages, and so on. These cookies do not collect information that identifies a visitor; all information these cookies collect is aggregated and therefore anonymous. Their only use is to help us improve how our Sites work.
Functionality cookies – These cookies allow our Sites to remember choices you make (such as your user name, language, or the region you are in) and provide enhanced, more personal features. These cookies may also be used to provide services you have asked for, such as watching a video or commenting on a blog. The information these cookies collect may be anonymized, and they cannot track your browsing activity outside of our Sites.
Third party cookies – These cookies allow third parties to track the success of their applications or customize an application for you. Because of how cookies work, we cannot access these cookies, nor can the third parties access the data in cookies used set by our Sites. For example, if you choose to share content through Facebook or other social networks, you might be sent cookies from those websites. We do not control the setting of those cookies, so please check those sites for more information about their cookies and how to manage them.
Data Storage
If you create an account on our Sites, we store the personal information you provide in your user profile. All users can see, edit, or delete their own personal information at any time. Website administrators can also see and edit that information.
