7.6 We use cookies for the following purposes:

Cookie Type & Purpose

Essential Operational/Session Management Cookies
These cookies are necessary to allow us to operate the Site. Without the use of these cookies parts of the Site would not function correctly. These cookies, for example, let us recognise whether you are a subscriber and what type of subscriber you are and then provide you with the services which you are entitled to. Further examples of essential cookies include cookies which keep you logged on during your visit and retain details of your online shopping basket or purchases. These cookies also allow you to move easily from one page to another within the Site and your page requests are loaded in a smooth and secure manner without you having to re-enter your details.

Analytical Performance Cookies
These cookies are used by us and/or our business partners to analyse how the Site is used, including for example how users navigate through the Site. The cookies also let us monitor how the Site is performing. These cookies do not let us identify users (the information collected is anonymous) and we combine the information which they provide us. We use this information to maintain, operate and continually improve the Site.

Advertising Cookies
These cookies are used to show you relevant advertising both on and off the Site. We may also use a cookie to learn whether members who saw an ad on the Site later visited the advertiser’s site. Similarly, our partners may use a cookie to determine whether we’ve shown an ad and how it performed, or provide us with information about how you interact with them. We may also work with a partner to show you an ad on or off the Site, such as after you’ve visited a partner’s site or application. Cookies and ad technology such as web beacons, pixels, and anonymous ad network tags help us more effectively serve ads to you, as well as to collect aggregated auditing, research, and reporting for advertisers. Note: Because your web browser may request advertisements and web beacons directly from ad network servers, these networks can view, edit, or set their own cookies, just as if you had requested a web page from their site.

Functionality Cookies
These cookies let us operate certain functions of the Site in line with the choices you make. These cookies mean that when you come back to the Site we can provide you with our services as you have asked for them to be provided, such as knowing your user name, remembering how you have customised our services, reminding you of your preferred collaborators or content on the Site, remembering if you have filled in a survey or seen a particular performance before.

7.8 Most internet browsers are automatically set up to accept cookies, but you can set your browser to refuse a cookie or ask your browser to show you where a cookie has been set up. If you wish to do so you can refuse the use of these cookies by altering your browser settings. Please note that certain features of the Sites are only activated by the presence of a cookie or otherwise rely on the use of cookies and as such you may find some parts of the Site do not function as you might expect, or particular features of the Site may not be available to you. Please note that by deleting cookies or disabling future cookies you may not be able to fully use the Sites. However, if you do wish to prevent Center Stage from using cookies and/or wish to delete any cookies on your computer, please refer to your browser’s ‘help’ section for further information on how to deactivate them, or refer to the instructions for your device’s file management software to locate the file or directory that stores cookies.
