They allow us to customise the web site to your needs.

But you should note that Cookies may be necessary to provide you with some features of our on-line services.

Like many web site operators, we also use the independent company Histats to measure and analyse the internet usage across our web sites. Histats is a leader in the internet industry in interactive measurement technologies and market research. We use Histats services to collect the following core information on the usage of our web sites, including:

• The number of page views (or page impressions) that occur on our web sites;

• Common entry and exit points into our web sites.

This aggregate, non-personal information is collated by Histats and provided to us to assist in analysing the usage of our web sites. The Histats data is also accessible by media organizations and research companies, for the purpose of conducting industry comparisons with other Internet portals.

All pages on our web sites are coded with software provided by Histats. This is transparent to the user as the software makes use of an invisible image (via Javascript) or an invisible Java Applet*, at the bottom of the web page. This software stores a "cookie" in the browser, which contains a unique identifier. This enables Histats to track the number of unique browsers to our web sites. This information is collected and aggregated by Histats, and in no way does this unique identifier identify a user personally. We do not and will not marry any data collected by Histats with any personal information collected on our web sites.

Histats software code cannot be disabled entirely on our web sites, as Histats Red Measure code takes into account all web-browser configurations, including the disabling of Java and Javascript. Histats’methods of measuring unique visitors takes into account the proportion of visitors who have disabled cookies in their browser.

* The use of Javascript and/or Java Applet is dictated by the browser you use. Typically Internet Explorer users with Version 4 or above will use the Javascript method. Netscape users, or users whose browser does not support Javascript 1.1, will use the Java Applet method.
