5.3 Cookies are used on this site for the following purposes:
      a) Session cookies: We use session cookies to enable the website to keep track of your movement from page to page and store your selections so you do not get asked repeatedly for the same information. These cookies allow you to proceed through many pages of the site quickly and easily without having to authenticate or reprocess each new area you visit. For example, the session cookie remembers your shopping cart selection so will have the items you selected when you are ready to check out. 
      b) Olark cookies: Olark, our provider of live chat software, places session and persistent cookies (up to two years) on our site to enable the software to function properly as well as to remember you and your message history between visits. Clickhere for more information.

This information helps us to improve the way our site works, for example by making sure users find what they need easily. Click here for more information about GA cookies.

      d) Third party advertising cookies: As do many other sites, we use third party advertisers and/or internet advertising companies working for them to fill ad space on our site including Appnexus (see here) and AdRoll (see here). These third parties may use persistent cookies and other similar technologies (known as action tags, single pixel gifs and web beacons) to assess information about your visits to this and other sites.
