Our Website uses cookies to distinguish you from other users. This helps us to provide you with a good experience when you browse our Website and allows us to improve them.
A cookie is a small text file which is placed onto your device (e.g. computer, smartphone or other electronic device) when you use our Website. These help us to recognise you and your device and store some information about your preferences, consents and or past actions. For example, we may monitor how many times you visit the Website, which pages you go to, traffic data, location data and the originating domain name of your internet service provider.

We use cookies:
There are four different categories of cookies that we use on our site:
Necessary cookies: These are cookies that are essential for the operation of our site. They include, for example, cookies that enable you to log into secure areas of our site or make use of e-billing services. We also use cookies to prevent fraudulent use of your login credentials. These cookies are essential for using our site and therefore cannot be turned off without severely affecting your use of it.
Analytical/performance cookies: Performance cookies allow us to recognise and count the number of visitors and to see how visitors move around our site when they are using it. This helps us to improve the way our site works, for example, by ensuring that users are finding what they are looking for easily. These cookies also allow us to see overall patterns of usage on our site and help us record any difficulties you may have with our site.
Functionality cookies: In some circumstances we may use functionality cookies. These are used to recognise you when you return to our site or provide enhanced and more personalised features, for example, to personalise our content for you, greet you by name and remember your preferences (for example, your choice of language, region, or regional veterinary practice).
Targeting cookies: We and our service providers and partners may use targeting or advertising cookies to record your visit to our site, the pages you have visited and the links you have followed. For example, we may use targeting or advertising cookies to limit the number of times you see the same ad and to help measure the effectiveness of any campaigns. We may also use this information to make our site and any advertising (if applicable) displayed on it more relevant to your interests.
We will ask for your consent to place cookies or other similar tracking technologies on your device, except where they are essential for us to provide you with a service that you have requested. For example, to enable you to put items in your shopping basket and use our check-out process. You can withdraw any consent to the use of cookies or manage any other cookie preferences by completing the actions listed below on your device.
We also use another type of tracking technology called pixels. Unlike a cookie which is stored on your device, a pixel is a tiny snippet of code that collects multiple data points over different webpages and sites such as how you browse and what types of ads you click on. This tiny piece of code can be linked to users via a unique identifier. We use pixels as they help us to show you more relevant adverts based on your likes and behaviours. They also help us to measure how successful our marketing programme is, track conversions and build our audience base.
Our Website includes Facebook, TikTok and Google Analytics pixels.
By consenting to marketing cookies, you are agreeing to the use of these pixels.
