This Cookie Policy provides for details of the cookie and other tracking technologies (
collectively “Cookies”) which we use on our Platform, and the information which is collected using the Cookies and how it is being used. The Cookies that we use allow our Platform to work properly, and it helps us to understand what information is most useful to you whilst accessing our Platform. By using Cookies, we are able to provide you with a better experience and improve our Platform by better understanding how you use it.
We also use advertising identifiers which are similar to cookies and are found on many mobile devices and tablets. Like cookies, advertising identifiers are used to make online advertising more relevant. Advertising cookies and advertising identifiers use information about your use of our Platform, your response to ads and electronic messages, and to deliver ads that are more relevant to you. These types of ads are called “internet based advertising”.
Any capitalised terms not defined in this Cookie Policy are defined in our Terms of Use, Terms of Business or Privacy Policy.
Cookies are small text files that are stored on your internet browsing device (e.g. computer, tablet or phone) when you visit or use our Platform or see one of our adverts elsewhere on the internet. Cookies enable us to ‘remember’ who you are when your computer or device first visits our Platform, to remember your preferences, and to keep you logged in for repeat visits, if you consent. Information from Cookies may include information relating to your use of our Platform, and information about your computer or device (such as IP address and browser type), and demographic data. Most browsers accept Cookies automatically, but you can set your browser to notify you when you receive a Cookie or to reject Cookies generally.
We may place and access certain first-party Cookies on your computer or device. First-party Cookies are those placed directly by us and are used only by us. We use Cookies to facilitate and improve your experience of our Platform. We have carefully chosen these Cookies and have taken steps to ensure that your privacy and personal data is protected and respected at all times.
Some of the types of Cookies on our Platform can be categorised as follows:
1. Strictly Necessary Cookies. As the name suggests, these are Cookies that are required for the operation of our Platform, and provide basic functionality (like accessing content or logging in). They include, for example, Cookies that enable you to log into our Platform, make purchases and avail our services. Without these cookies, you will not be able to access some parts of our Platform. These Cookies do not typically contain any information that personally identifies you.
2. Performance Cookies. They allow us to recognise and count the number of visitors and to see how visitors move around our Platform. This helps us to improve the way our Platform works, for example, by ensuring that Users are finding what they are looking for easily. These Cookies do not typically contain any information that personally identifies you.
3. Functionality Cookies. These are used to recognise you when you return to our Platform, and they remember data about your browser. These Cookies enable us to personalise our content for you, greet you by name and remember your preferences (for example, your choice of language or region). These Cookies may collect your personal data to the extent you have disclosed, and if you do not accept these Cookies, then it may restrict the content on our Platform, and affect the performance and functionality of our Platform to you.
4. Targeting or Advertising Cookies. Targeting Cookies are used to help in providing Users with adverts that are relevant to them by collecting information about their browsing habits and Platform usage. They can also be used to allow third parties to display relevant and personalised ads to Users through their networks, to measure the effectiveness of advertising campaigns and to limit the number of times you see the same advert. If you do not allow these Cookies, you will experience less targeted advertising.
5. Analytics Cookies. These allow us to understand how you use our Platform. For example, how efficiently you are able to navigate around it. They help us understand your experience of our Platform.
6. Third Party Cookies. Our Platform may also display content from a third party website or service, which may result in Cookies from third parties being stored on your hard drive or browser. Third-party Cookies are not placed by us; instead they are placed by third parties that provide services to us and/or to you. We do not control the storage and use of these Cookies by these third parties and you should refer to the privacy policies of the relevant third parties for more information. Third party Cookies are used on our Platform purely for analytics and marketing purposes (they work in the same way as Analytics Cookies described above).
7. Persistent Cookies. these Cookies are those that remain on your computer or device for a predetermined period and are activated each time you visit our Platform. Any of the above types of Cookies may be a Persistent Cookie.
8. Session Cookies: Session Cookies are temporary and only remain on your computer or device from the point at which you visit our Platform until you close your browser. Any of the above types of Cookies may be a Session Cookie.
