We make use of third party provider, Force24, to place tracking code on our website that allows the collection of the IP address of the visitor. When you access our website from your workplace, the IP address can then be used to identify the domain name of your business. Force24 only collects the details of your organisation. We also use cookies through Force24 to see what pages of our website you have visited during your journey and, more specifically, what you have requested from our website, e.g. brochure request. This will allow us to gauge potential interest in our website, and may inform our marketing messaging. For further information on how we use this information, please see our privacy notice.
