The Website may use cookies to distinguish you from other users. This helps Flux to provide you with a good browsing experience and allows Flux to improve the Website. In this cookie policy (the "Cookie Policy") you will find information on what cookies may be set when you visit the Website and the purposes for which those cookies are used.
2. WHAT ARE COOKIES?
A cookie is a small data file that is placed on your browser or your hardware to allow a website to recognize you when you return to it. This can either be for the duration of your visit (using a 'session cookie') or for repeat visits (a 'persistent cookie'). Cookies can be created through a variety of web-related protocols and technologies, such as HTTP (sometimes referred to as 'browser cookies'), HTML5, or Adobe Flash.
Cookies are an extremely common technology for remembering certain information about a website visitor. Most websites currently make use of cookies for a wide range of tasks. Cookies may be set by the website in question ('first-party cookie') or third-party suppliers and partners who set or read cookies on the website ('third-party cookie').
Flux uses cookies for the following purposes:
Strictly necessary cookies - These are cookies that are required for the operation of the Website. They include, for example, cookies that enable you to log into secure areas of the Website and prevent fraudulent use of user accounts.
Functional cookies - These are used to recognise you when you return to the Website and to embed functionality from third party services. This enables Flux to personalise the content for you, greet you by name, remember your preferences (for example, to pre-populate form content you’ve already entered previously) and to integrate useful services provided by third party providers into the Website e.g. landing pages and relevant pop-ups.
Performance and analytics cookies - Flux uses these cookies to collect information that allows Flux to analyse web traffic on the Website, such as count the number of visitors and see how they move around the Website. The information collected via those cookies is anonymous. Flux sends it to a third party that operates tools to analyse the collected information. This helps Flux to improve the way the Website works, for example by making it easier for you to find what you are looking for.
Embedded third-party content - Some of the content on the Website (e.g. forms, buttons and pop-ups) is provided by online services operated by third parties. When you visit a page containing content from one of these services, a cookie may be set by the relevant third party. A list of the third-party cookies currently used in connection with this Website can be found in the cookie table.
3. HOW TO CONTROL AND DELETE COOKIES

If you continue to use the Website, more cookies and other tracking technologies will be placed on your computer as described in this Cookie Policy and as chosen by you in order to enhance your user experience whilst on the Website.
