These so-called “analytics” programs also tell us if , on an anonymous basis, how people reached this site (e.g. from a search engine) and whether they have been here before, helping us to put more money into developing our services for you instead of marketing spend. We use:

We also use technology to determine how people who phone us arrived on our website (e.g. from a search engine or by clicking on an advert). This will help us identify how people heard about us. Please be aware that if you call us, using a phone number on the website we can potentially tell how you arrived on our website. Again this ultimately helps us keep down costs for you.
Advertising Cookies
Cookies are widely used in online advertising. Neither us, advertisers or our advertising partners can gain personally identifiable information from these cookies. You can learn more about online advertising at https://www.youronlinechoices.com. You can opt-out of almost all advertising cookies at https://www.youronlinechoices.com/uk/your-ad-choices although we would prefer that you didn’t as ultimately adverts help keep much of the internet free. It is also worth noting that opting out of advertising cookies will not mean you won’t see adverts, just simply that they won’t be tailored to you any longer. We use:
- LinkedIn. These cookies expire in 1 year.
Remarketing Cookies
You may notice that sometimes after visiting a site you see increased numbers of adverts from the site you visited. This is because advertisers, including ourselves, pay for these advertisements. The technology used to do this is made possible by cookies and as such we may place a remarketing cookie during your visit.
Turning Cookies Off
You can switch cookies off by adjusting your browser settings to stop accepting cookies (Learn how here). Your concern regarding cookies might be linked to what’s often referred to as “spyware.” Instead of disabling cookies in your web browser, you might discover that anti-spyware software can accomplish the same goal by automatically removing cookies deemed invasive.
