COOKIE POLICY.

What cookies this site uses, why, and how to control them.

Last updated: replace this with your effective date.

What cookies are

Cookies are small text files placed on your device by a website. They let the site remember information about your visit, such as your sign-in state and preferences, so that it can function correctly across pages and sessions.

Cookies we use

This site uses the following categories of cookies:

  • Strictly necessary cookies — required for the site to function. These include the authentication cookie that keeps you signed in (.xcms.auth) and the anti-forgery cookie used to protect form submissions. They cannot be turned off without breaking the site.
  • Functional cookies — remember preferences such as menu state. These do not identify you personally and do not track you across other sites.
  • Analytics cookies (only if you enable analytics) — help us understand how visitors interact with the site so we can improve it. We anonymise the data wherever possible.

Third-party cookies

Some pages may load resources from third-party providers (for example embedded video, fonts, or icons). Those providers may set their own cookies under their own privacy policies. We do not control those cookies.

How long they last

Session cookies are deleted when you close your browser. Persistent cookies remain until they expire (typically 14 days for the authentication cookie) or until you delete them.

Managing cookies

You can control or delete cookies through your browser settings. You can also delete the authentication cookie at any time by signing out. Blocking strictly necessary cookies will prevent the site from functioning.

Changes

If we materially change how we use cookies we will update this policy and the "last updated" date above.
