Information automatically

We may also gather other non-personal information (from which we cannot identify you) such as the type of your internet browser which we use to provide you with a more effective service.
- Cookies. When you visit the Site we may store some information (commonly known as a “cookie”) on your computer. Cookies are pieces of information that a website transfers to your hard drive to store and sometimes track information about you. Cookies are specific to the server that created them and cannot be accessed by other servers, which means that they cannot be used to track your movements around the web. Passwords and credit card numbers are not stored in cookies. A cookie helps you get the best out of the Site and helps us to provide you with a more customized service. We use cookies for the following purposes:
Storing details about your site preferences (for instance which language you wish to view pages in);
- Storing details about any experiences you have short-listed;
- Enabling our web server to track your session between pages of the site and provide a continuity of experience.
- You can block or erase cookies from your computer if you want to (your browser’s help screen or manual should tell you how to do this), but certain parts of the Site are reliant on the use of cookies to operate correctly and may not work correctly if you set your browser not to accept cookies.
- When using our site, there are a number of third parties who also need to store cookies for essential running of the site. These include but are not limited to:
- Google to enable Interactive Maps, help us with Analytics and provide remarketing campaigns tailored to your browsing using Google Advertiser Features.
Security

Once we have received your information, we will use the strict procedures and security features referred to in this clause to try to prevent unauthorized access.
