ABOUT COOKIES

How Our Website Uses Cookies: Cookies are tiny text files stored on your device whenever you visit our site. They include information like the website's name and a unique user value. Cookies can be either 'session' cookies, which only last as long as your visit and disappear when you close your browser, or 'persistent' cookies, which remain on your device until they expire.

1. How We Employ Cookies on Our Site

Currently, there are four types of cookies that may be generated as you browse our site: session cookies, preference cookies, analytics cookies and third party cookies. Session Cookies As you move through the site, various pieces of information need to be stored in order for the site to function properly. For example, if you add a course to favourites, this course will be remembered so that you can access them later. If you log in, it will be remembered which account you logged in with. This information is stored in a database and is referred to as a session. One cookie is set to keep track of which session you are using. Old session data is automatically deleted from the database multiple times a day, so this information is not stored long-term. In addition to the session cookie, a cookie is set to check if cookies can be set on your computer. This is done for diagnostic purposes when you use forms on the website. This information is used to help solve any problems you may have encountered. How do I control session cookies? You can use your browser settings to control whether or not the site sets session cookies. More information on your browser settings is provided at the bottom of this page. Please be aware that cookies are critical to the working of the site. If you choose to disable cookies from this site the functionality of the site will be greatly reduced. Preference Cookies Currently a preference cookie is set when you click OK on the cookies acceptance banner displayed on the site. How do I control preference cookies? These cookies are set as a direct result of your choice, and function solely as indicators of what that choice was. It is not believed to pose any risk to your privacy. However, you can always use your browser settings to control whether or not our site can set cookies on your computer. Please be aware that cookies are critical to the working of the site. If you choose to disable cookies from this site the functionality of the site will be greatly reduced. Analytics Cookies In order to monitor how this and related websites are performing, data is collected about page visits. This information is completely anonymous — it cannot be determined who it came from. When this data is used, numbers of visitors are analysed overall rather than individual visits. Analytics information is used in reports and to improve the website. For example, analytics data has been used to add, remove or change features of the site based on how popular they are with users.

2. Alternative Site Analytics Techniques

On several of our web pages, you'll find 'social buttons' that enable you to share content easily on social media. Note that these sites might collect data about your browsing habits.

3. Strategies for Controlling Cookies

Please note: Disabling, removing, or blocking cookies may turn off some of the features of our Online Platforms that make your experience more efficient, and some Online Platforms may not function properly as a result. Further, if you opt out of having your information collected and used by us and our digital marketing partners for interest-based advertising purposes, you will continue to receive ads, but such ads will not be tailored to your specific interests based on web viewing data collected from your device over time and across unaffiliated websites.
