Cookies Policy

Our website uses cookies, small text files sent by your computer each time you visit Our Sites, unique to your account or your browser. Cookies help us understand your browsing preferences and show you relevant ads, but not for collecting personal data. This Cookies Policy describes how we use cookies, the types of cookies we use, and your choices regarding cookies.

What are cookies?

Cookies are small text files that are stored on your computer or mobile device when you visit a website. They allow the website to remember your actions and preferences over a period of time, so you don’t have to keep re-entering them whenever you come back to the site or browse from one page to another.

How we use cookies

We use cookies to understand your browsing preferences and show you relevant ads, but not for collecting personal data. This also helps us to develop and improve Our Sites, as well as our products and/or services, in response to what you might need or want.

Third-party cookies

If you allow cookies to be used, your personal information may be stored by third parties such as Google AdSense, Google Analytics, Hotjar, HubSpot, and Mailchimp. Please note that all third parties that advertise on Our Sites (e.g., advertising networks and providers of external services such as web traffic analysis services) may also use cookies, over which we have no control. These cookies are likely to be analytics/performance cookies or retargeting cookies.

Types of cookies we use

We use two types of cookies on Our Sites: session cookies and persistent cookies.

Session cookies

Session cookies are only stored on your computer during your web session and are automatically deleted when you close your browser. They usually store an anonymous session ID allowing you to browse a website without having to log in to each page, but they do not collect any personal data from your computer.

Persistent cookies

Persistent cookies are stored as files on your computer and they remain there when you close your web browser. Persistent cookies can be read by the websites that created them when you visit those websites again. We use persistent cookies for Google Analytics. The third-party analytics companies we work with may combine the information collected with other information they have independently collected from other websites and/or other online products and services. Their collection and use of information are subject to their own privacy policies.

Your choices regarding cookies

If you don’t want to receive cookies, you can modify your browser so that it: notifies you when cookies are sent to it, refuse cookies altogether, or delete cookies that have already been set.

If you wish to restrict or block web browser cookies which are set on your device then you can do this through your browser settings; the Help function within your browser should tell you how. Alternatively, you may wish to visit www.aboutcookies.org, which contains comprehensive information on how to do this on a wide variety of desktop browsers.

Please be aware that restricting the use of cookies may affect the features available to you.

Notice about Do Not Track (DNT) browser setting

DNT is a feature offered by some browsers which, when enabled, sends a signal to websites to request that your browsing is not tracked, such as by third party ad networks, social networks, and analytics companies. This website does not currently respond to DNT requests. However, you may opt-out of tracking on this website, including analytics (and tailored advertising if you are visiting from outside the UK), by changing your cookie settings.

A uniform standard has not yet been adopted to determine how DNT requests should be interpreted and what actions should be taken by websites and third parties. We will continue to review DNT and other new technologies and may adopt a DNT standard once available.

You can block cookies at any time by activating the setting on your browser that allows you to refuse the delivery of all or some cookies. However, if you use your browser settings to block all cookies (including essential cookies), you may not be able to access all or parts of Our Sites.

How long are our cookies stored on your device?

The duration of storage of cookies on your device may vary, depending on the category to which they belong: temporary or permanent.

Temporary cookies

We use temporary/session cookies on our website to allow you to browse without interruption. We may also use temporary cookies for internal reporting purposes. After your browsing session ends, this type of cookie does not store any information on your hard drive.

Permanent cookies

Some of our analytics cookies and certain third-party cookies are permanent/persistent cookies. They allow us and third parties to understand visitors’ browsing behavior over a longer period of time, to provide you with additional features related to your use of the website, the content that you have saved or stored through them, as well as for advertising and marketing purposes. Depending on their function, this type of cookie may persist for different lengths of time ranging from several hours, to a week, or even several years. This type of cookie will persist after you end a browsing session and can be used by our us or third parties to recognize your device when you begin a new browsing session

Pixels

We also use Pixels, which are tiny pieces of JavaScript code that we have incorporated into each of our web pages to provide a series of functions for transmitting application-specific events and user-defined data to third-party providers such as Facebook, LinkedIn, or Google. These Pixels record information about your browsing session, which it sends to third-party providers, along with a hashed version of the provider-specific ID and/or URL viewed. This helps us serve you better with personalized content based on your preferences and interactions.

We use cookies to improve your experience, share our services, and protect our work. By continuing to use this site, you agree to our Cookies Policy.
