A “cookie” is a small text file that is stored on your computer, mobile device, tablet or other device when you visit a website or use an application.

Some cookies are deleted when you close down your browser. These are known as session cookies. Others remain on your device until they expire or you delete them from your cache. These are known as persistent cookies and enable us to remember things about you as a returning visitor.

Our Website uses both session and persistent cookies.

4. Cookie Categories

This section explains in more detail about each cookie category and how you can control their use.

The length of time a cookie stays on your device depends on its type. We use two types of cookies on our Website:

1. Session cookies
   
   These are temporary cookies which only exist during the time you use the Website (or more strictly, until you close the relevant browser). Session cookies help our Website remember what you chose on the previous page, avoiding the need to re-enter information and improve your experience whilst using the Website.
   
   
2. Persistent cookies
   
   These are cookies which stay on your device after you have closed your browser. Persistent cookies help us identify you as a unique visitor.
   
   We also categorise our cookies to help our customers understand the specific reason for each cookie.
   
   
3. Essential cookies
   
   Cookies that are essential for us to provide a product or service you have requested and to provide a secure online environment. Without these cookies we may be unable to provide some products or services that you might request. Other “essential” cookies keep our Website secure. Essential cookies are used to:
   •  deliver interactive services, such as online banking;
   •  maintain online security and protect against online fraud; and
   • record your preference regarding our use of cookies on your device.

   •  make online banking login faster by remembering you between visits on your personal devices; and
