This policy explains how we use cookies and similar technologies such as tags and pixels (together, ‘Cookies’). It also helps you to manage what Cookies are set on your device.
What is a Cookie?
A Cookie is a small text file that is set on your device when you access our websites or use our apps (‘Websites’). It collects information about your use of our Websites and helps the Websites to recognise and remember you in future.
Why do we use Cookies?
The key reasons we use Cookies are to:
- provide you with services you have requested
- show you relevant content, including personalised advertisements;
- ensure that our Websites function properly;
- understand how you use our Websites; and
- remember your log-in details
What type of Cookies do we use?
The following types of Cookies are set when you access our Websites:
1. Necessary
These cookies are essential for the Websites to operate. Without these cookies, services you have asked for, like shopping baskets, cannot be provided.
2. Functional
These cookies recognise you when you return to the Websites. They remember information (such as your username and region), enabling us to remember your preferences and display relevant content.
3. Analytical
These cookies collect information about how visitors use and engage with the Websites (such as the most visited pages), helping us to make improvements to the Websites.
4. Advertising
These cookies collect information about your browsing habits (such as products you have purchased or content you have engaged with) as well as information about
your browser, device and IP address. We use this information to display more relevant content and advertisements to you, as well as to limit the number of times you see an advertisement and measure the effectiveness of a campaign. Occasionally we share this information with partners, including other advertising organisations. Advertising Cookies help us to connect with you on our Websites and on other websites, including Facebook.
Some of these Cookies are controlled and set by us (‘First Party Cookies’) and some are set by third parties (‘Third Party Cookies’). Third Party Cookies are mainly used to serve relevant advertisements to you on the Websites.
