What are cookies?
Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you visit a website. They help the site work, remember preferences, and understand how visitors use pages. Similar technologies include local storage and pixels. For how we use personal data more broadly, see our Privacy policy.
Cookies we use
We use the following categories:
- Strictly necessary — required for security, load balancing, and core functionality (e.g. keeping your session stable). Where Australian privacy and ePrivacy guidance treats these as essential, they may not require the same level of consent as optional analytics or marketing cookies.
- Functional — remember choices such as language or region where we offer those options.
- Analytics — help us understand traffic and improve content (for example, aggregated page views). Where these are not strictly necessary, we will ask for your consent where required.
Third parties
Some cookies may be set by providers we use (for example, embedded maps or video). Their use is governed by their respective policies. We aim to minimise third-party scripts and load embeds only where needed.
Managing cookies
You can control cookies through your browser settings (block, delete, or alert you to cookies). Blocking all cookies may affect how the site functions. You can also use industry opt-out tools where available for advertising cookies, if we use them in future.
Updates
We may update this policy when our site or legal requirements change. Check the “Last updated” date above. Continued use of the site after changes may constitute acceptance where permitted by law.
