4. Managing cookies
On your first visit to our website, a notice tells you that we use analytics cookies, with a button to turn them off. If your browser sends a Global Privacy Control signal, analytics is turned off for you automatically.
You can turn analytics off, or change your choice, at any time by using “Cookie settings” at the foot of any page. Turning analytics off removes the analytics cookies already set and stops any more being set. You can also block or delete cookies in your browser’s settings, although this may affect how some websites work.
