What is a cookie?
A cookie is a small text file that a website places on your computer, telephone, tablet or other device. Cookies allow websites to recognise a device, maintain secure sessions, remember choices and understand how services are being used.
Some cookies last only until you close your browser. Others remain on your device for a specified period or until you delete them.

COOKIE CATEGORIES
Types of cookies that may be used
Strictly necessary cookies
These cookies support essential website functions such as security, page navigation, account authentication, session management and access to protected areas.
The website cannot operate properly without them. Consent is not normally required for cookies that are genuinely necessary to provide a service you have requested.
Preference cookies
These cookies remember choices such as display settings, language or other preferences so that the website can provide a more consistent experience.
Where a preference cookie is not strictly necessary, we will request consent before using it.
Analytics cookies
Analytics cookies can help us understand how visitors use the website, which pages receive visits and whether technical problems occur.
We will seek consent before placing non-essential analytics cookies on your device.
Marketing cookies
Marketing cookies may be used to measure campaigns, limit repeated advertising or support relevant communications across websites and digital platforms.
We will not use non-essential marketing cookies without valid consent.
OUR CURRENT APPROACH
Cookies used to operate the RDE website
The website may place strictly necessary cookies when they are required to provide core Drupal functions, maintain security, manage sessions, support account access or remember privacy choices.
Cookie names and durations may change when the website, its security controls or its service providers are updated. We will review this page and provide additional details when optional analytics, preference or marketing technologies are introduced.
Essential website functions may include
- Maintaining a secure website session
- Supporting account authentication and sign-in
- Protecting forms and services against misuse
- Remembering privacy or cookie choices
- Supporting essential website administration
THIRD-PARTY SERVICES
External content and service providers
Some pages may link to or include services supplied by other organisations, such as video platforms, social networks, payment providers, identity providers or communication services.
These organisations may place their own cookies when you use their services or follow a link to their websites. Their cookies are controlled by their own policies.
Where third-party content would place non-essential cookies, we will take appropriate steps to obtain consent before that content or technology is activated.
Review the privacy and cookie information supplied by the relevant provider before using an external service.
