COOKIE NOTICE: SEE HOW THE COOKIE CRUMBLES

Whoever thought the humble cookie would need a whole notice to itself! We’ve all got our favourites (chocolate chip anyone?), but they’re not the type featured here. This notice talks about the cookies and similar tracking technologies that we use across the websites we operate and all the services we provide to you.

Last updated: 4th February 2019.

WHAT COOKIES/TRACKING TECHNOLOGIES DO WE USE?

A cookie is a small text file that’s placed on your computer or mobile device when you visit one of our websites. We, and some of our affiliates and third-party service providers, may use a few different types of cookies. Some are persistent cookies (cookies that remain on your hard drive for an extended period of time) and some are session ID cookies (cookies that expire when you close your browser).

We also use other tracking technologies like web beacons (sometimes called “tracking beacons” or “clear gifs”) and local storage. These are tiny graphics files that contain a unique identifier that enable us to recognise when someone has visited our websites or opened an email that we have sent them.

WHY DO WE USE COOKIES/TRACKING TECHNOLOGIES?

Even though they’re not as exciting as the round, sugary and delicious variety, these types of cookies and tracking technologies are still important. They help us to do awesome things like operate our websites and services, enhance and customise your experience across our websites and services, perform analytics and deliver advertising and marketing that’s relevant to you.

There are also cookies set by third parties across our websites and services. Third party cookies enable third party features or functionality to be provided on or through our websites and services, such as advertising, interactive content and analytics. They also enable us to use advertising networks to manage our advertising on other websites.
