The length of time that a
cookie remains on your computer or mobile device depends on whether it is a
“persistent” or “session” cookie. Session cookies last until you stop browsing
and persistent cookies last until they expire or are deleted. Most of the
cookies we use are persistent and will expire between 30 minutes and two years
from the date they are downloaded to your device.
You can control and manage
cookies in various ways. Please keep in mind that removing or blocking cookies
can negatively impact your user experience and parts of our website may no
longer be fully accessible.
Most browsers automatically
accept cookies, but you can choose whether or not to accept cookies through
your browser controls, often found in your browser’s “Tools” or “Preferences”
menu. For more information on how to modify your browser settings or how to
block, manage or filter cookies can be found in your browser’s help file or
through such sites as www.allaboutcookies.org.
Additionally, please note that
blocking cookies may not completely prevent how we share information with third
parties such as our advertising partners. To exercise your rights or opt-out of
certain uses of your information by these parties, please follow the
instructions in the “Behavioural Advertising” section above.

Policy from time to time in order to reflect, for example, changes to our
