A session cookie contains a unique visitor id (a 32 character alphanumeric string that is unique to your visit. It contains no data that could identify you). This session cookie is essential to our website's functionality and is deleted once you close your browser window.

Non Essential Cookies

If you choose to adjust your cookie preferences on our site, we will set a cookie on your device called ntm_userprefs which lasts for 1 year.
