Adverts which are displayed on the website are generated by third parties who may also use cookies to track the number of users seeing the advertisement. However, this process does not provide access to personal information such as name, address and email addresses. We have no access or control over the data generated by these cookies and further information about third party cookies can be found by visiting their websites.
