What are cookies?

A cookie is a small text file that a website saves on your computer or mobile device when you visit the site. It enables the website to remember your actions and preferences (such as login, language, font size and other display preferences) over a period of time, so you don’t have to keep re-entering them whenever you come back to the site or browse from one page to another.

More information on all aspects of cookies can be found on www.aboutcookies.org.

How do we use cookies?

This website uses cookies to allow you to log in to access the members-only section without re-entering your email address and password. These cookies contain no personal information, merely a pointer allowing the authentication service to find your entry in its own tables. The cookies are ‘per-session’ cookies, i.e. they are destroyed when you close your browser. If you have chosen the option for your browser not to accept such cookies, you will not benefit from this feature and will have to re-authenticate yourself each time you log in to a different client application of the authentication service. A persistent cookie may be created for your convenience in order to record your choice of language, and at your discretion, your email address. In the absence of this cookie, the default language is English
