4 What Are Cookies
Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. They allow the website to recognise your device, remember your actions and preferences over a period of time, and gather information about how the site is used.
Cookies may be session cookies, which are deleted when you close your browser, or persistent cookies, which remain on your device until they expire or are deleted. They may also be first-party cookies set by us, or third-party cookies set by a service provider on our behalf.
5 Categories of Cookies

Essential for the website to function, including security, load balancing, form submission and session management. These cannot be switched off.

Used to measure the effectiveness of campaigns and to deliver relevant content across other sites you visit. These may be set by third parties.
6 First and Third-Party Cookies
First-party cookies are set directly by our website and are used to support core functionality and remember your preferences on our site. Third-party cookies are set by service providers such as analytics platforms, content delivery networks and advertising partners. These third parties operate under their own privacy and cookie policies.
7 Similar Technologies

9 Consent
When you first visit our website you will see a consent banner allowing you to accept all cookies, reject non-essential cookies, or manage your preferences by category. Strictly necessary cookies are set automatically because they are required for the site to function. All other categories require your explicit consent before they are activated.
Withdrawing consent. You can change your preferences at any time by clicking the “Cookie Settings” link in the website footer. Withdrawing consent will not affect the lawfulness of any processing carried out before the withdrawal.
10 Managing Your Preferences
You can control cookies through our on-site preference centre or directly through your browser settings. Most browsers allow you to view, delete and block cookies from specific sites or from all sites. Please note that disabling strictly necessary cookies may prevent the website from functioning correctly.
Links to browser-specific instructions are provided in Appendix B.
11 Do Not Track Signals
Some browsers offer a “Do Not Track” setting which signals to websites that you do not wish to be tracked. There is currently no consistent industry or legal standard for how these signals should be interpreted. We respond to explicit choices made through our on-site preference centre, which we consider the most reliable expression of your preferences.
12 Third-Party Services
Our website may embed content or functionality provided by third parties, such as analytics, video players, chat widgets, social media plugins and content delivery networks. These providers may set their own cookies. We select providers with appropriate privacy and security practices and review their controls periodically, but their cookie handling is governed by their own policies, which we encourage you to review.
13 Overseas Data Transfers
Some third-party services we use may process information outside Australia, including in the United States and the European Union. Where this occurs we take reasonable steps to ensure recipients provide protections comparable to Australian privacy obligations through contractual commitments and security assessments, consistent with our Privacy Policy.
14 Retention Periods
Session cookies are retained only for the duration of your visit. Persistent cookies are retained for the period specified against each cookie in Appendix A. Retention periods are set to be no longer than reasonably necessary for the stated purpose and are reviewed periodically.
15 Changes to This Cookie Policy
