Welcome to our cookie policy. This policy works alongside our Privacy Policy. The purpose of this policy is to describe what cookies are, what we use them for, and how you can manage them during your visit to or use of our website.
What are cookies?
We may place small text files called ‘cookies’ on your device when you visit our website. These files do not contain personal information, but they do contain a personal identifier that allows us to associate your personal information with a specific device. Many websites use cookies, and you can find out more about them at All About Cookies.
Why do we use cookies, and what is our cookie policy?
These files serve a number of useful purposes for you, including:
- granting you access to restricted content;
- tailoring our website’s functionality to you personally by letting us remember your preferences, location or device type;
- improving how our website performs;
- understanding who our audience is so that we can provide content most relevant to you;
- allowing third parties to provide services to our website; and
- helping us deliver interest-based advertising where appropriate in compliance with the applicable laws.
The types of cookies we use
We use different types of cookies on our website. Some of these cookies are placed by us, while others are placed by our third-party plug-ins, suppliers or advertisers. These cookies may be deleted from your device at different times, such as at the end of your browsing session (when you leave the website) or after a pre-set period, or they may persist on your device until you delete them.
You can see the cookies we use on our website by clicking the red cookie icon in the bottom-left corner.
Cookie consent solutions
There are many solutions available, and you need to use one to comply with cookie law in South Africa. We use CookieYes. In our view, this is the best solution for WordPress websites. We can help you to find the right cookie consent solution for your organisation. To get cookies right you need a cookie consent solution, a cookie notice and a cookie policy.
Deleting cookies
Your internet browser generally accepts cookies automatically, but you can often change this setting to stop accepting them. You can also delete cookies manually. You can read how to do this at Digital Trends.
Deleting or no longer accepting cookies may prevent you from accessing certain aspects of our website where cookies are necessary, or because the website forgot your preferences.
Changes to this cookie policy
We may occasionally update this policy. When we make material changes to this policy, we will provide you with a prominent notice on our website or send you an email. We may notify you in advance.
