Cookies and Analytics
We may use cookies, tracking pixels and similar technologies on our website and in our emails from time to time. Cookies are text files placed in your computer's browser to store your preferences. Tracking pixels are tiny, invisible images (typically the size of one pixel) embedded in web pages or emails. Cookies and tracking pixels, by themselves, do not tell us your email address or other personally identifiable information. However, they do recognise you when you return to our online website and allow third parties to cause our advertisements to appear on your social media and online media feeds as part of our retargeting campaigns. If and when you choose to provide our online website with personal information, this information may be linked to the data stored in the cookie or collected by tracking pixels. Unlike cookies, tracking pixels do not store any information on your device, but instead send information to our servers when the pixel is loaded. You can block cookies by activating the setting on your browser that allows you to refuse the setting of all or some cookies. You can block tracking pixels by using ad-blocking or privacy-focused browser extensions. Some email providers allow you to block images by default, which can prevent tracking pixels in emails from loading. However, if you use your browser settings to block all cookies (including essential cookies) and tracking pixels you may not be able to access all or parts of our website and you may not receive personalised content.
Google Analytics:
We may use Google Analytics Advertising Features. We and third-party vendors may use first-party cookies (such as the Google Analytics cookie) or other first-party identifiers, and third-party cookies (such as Google advertising cookies) or other third-party identifiers together. These cookies and identifiers may collect Technical and Usage Data about you. You can opt-out of Google Analytics Advertising Features including using a Google Analytics Opt-out Browser add-on found here. To opt-out of personalised ad delivery on the Google content network, please visit Google’s Ads Preferences Manager here or if you wish to opt-out permanently even when all cookies are deleted from your browser you can install their plugin here. To opt out of interest-based ads on mobile devices, please follow these instructions for your mobile device: On android open the Google Settings app on your device and select “ads” to control the settings. On iOS devices with iOS 6 and above use Apple’s advertising identifier. To learn more about limiting ad tracking using this identifier, visit the settings menu on your device. To find out how Google uses data when you use third party websites or applications, please see here.
Facebook/Meta Analytics:
We may use tools provided by Meta, such as the Meta Pixel, advanced matching, and Conversions API. These allow us to measure ad performance and deliver ads that may be relevant to you on Meta platforms based on your activity on our website/app. You can control whether we can join data from third party partners with your Meta account for ads by adjusting your preferences within Meta's settings. You can disconnect this data from your Meta account by changing your settings for Off-Facebook activity. For more information, please see Meta's Privacy Policy here.
