Essential Cookies

We use essential cookies to make our website work. These cookies are strictly necessary to enable core functionality such as security, network management, your cookie preferences and accessibility. Without them you wouldn’t be able to use basic services. You may disable these by changing your browser settings, but this may affect how you can use our website.

Without them, you may not be able to watch videos, or you may need to log in every time you visit the website. Preference cookies enable a website to remember information that changes the way the website behaves or looks, like your preferred language or regional location.

How you can manage cookies

Most browsers allow you to control cookies through their ‘settings’ preferences. However, if you limit the ability of websites to set cookies, you may worsen your overall user experience, since it will no longer be personalized to you. It may also stop you from saving customized settings like login information.

You may also lose some saved information, such as saved login details and site preferences. Different browsers give you different controls.

Disabling a cookie or category of cookie does not delete the cookie from your browser; you will need to do this yourself from within your browser. Please visit your browser’s help menu for more information.

Key tips for safe and responsible cookie-based Web browsing

Due to their flexibility and the fact that our service uses cookies by default, cookies are almost unavoidable. Here are some tips you can use to ensure worry-free cookie-based browsing:

• Customize your browser’s cookie settings to reflect your comfort level with cookie security or use the relevant browser’s help guides to find out how to delete cookies.
• If you are comfortable with cookies and you are the only person using your computer, you may want to set long expiration time frames for storing your personal access information and browsing history.
• If you share access on your computer, you may want to set your browser to clear private browsing data every time you close your browser. This option lets you access cookie-based websites while deleting sensitive information after your browsing session.
• Make sure your browser is updated and, if you haven’t already, set your browser to update automatically. This eliminates security vulnerabilities caused by outdated browsers. Many cookie-based exploits are based on exploiting older browsers’ security shortcomings.
