Performance and analytics cookies
These cookies help us understand how people use our website. They allow us to recognise and count the number of visitors and to see how visitors move around the site. This helps us improve how the website works, for example, by ensuring users can find what they are looking for easily.
We use Google Analytics and Microsoft Azure Application Insights to collect this information.
If you turn these cookies off, we will not be able to monitor site performance or identify areas for improvement.
Google Analytics collects information in an anonymous form, including the number of visitors to this website, what websites visitors have come from and the pages they visited. MIB uses this information to compile reports and help us improve our website.
Azure Application Insights uses cookies to gather anonymous information that helps us understand user behaviour, preferences and usage patterns. This is strictly for monitoring and analytics purposes and does not include any personally identifiable information (PII).

Functional cookies
These cookies are used to provide enhanced functionality and personalisation. They may be set by us or by third party providers whose services we've added to our pages. They are used to support things like embedded video, remembering settings and improving how content is presented to you.
If you do not allow these cookies, some or all of these services may not function properly.
Targeting cookies
Targeting cookies may be set through our site by our advertising partners. They may be used by those companies to build a profile of your interests and show you relevant adverts on other sites. They work by recognising that you have visited our website and may be used to build a profile of your interests.
They also help us count return visits to our website or our partners' or third party websites, and views of advertising banners linked to an IP address and domain. This allows us to accumulate and report aggregate statistical information on our website and advertisement usage, and determine which features users likes best. This information may be transferred and/or accessed by third party motor insurance organisations. Please note that third parties (including for example, advertising networks and providers of external services like web traffic analysis services) may also use cookies, over which we have no control. These cookies are likely to be analytical/performance cookies or targeting cookies.
These cookies work by uniquely identifying your browser and device.
If you do not allow these cookies, you will still see adverts online but they may be less relevant to you.
