COOKIE POLICY

 

What are cookies and similar technologies?

Cookies are small files placed on your device (computer, tablet or smartphone). When you access a website, a cookie is placed on your device and it will send information to the party that placed the cookie.

Other technologies that perform a similar function to cookies also exist. These include web beacons and clear gifs. These are often used in conjunction with cookies to help a website owner understand its users better. When Cillco sends you newsletters or other messages Cillco uses these technologies as follows so that Cillco can track email open and click rates: In order to determine a user's ability to receive HTML e-mail in addition to whether or not an e-mail has been opened, Cillco includes a "web beacon" in the majority of HTML e-mail messages Cillco sends. A web beacon (a small .gif image) is activated when an HTML e-mail is opened via a request for the image on our servers. This capability helps Cillco send e-mail in a format that users can read and enables us to track the aggregate number of e-mails opened. The web beacon does not collect any personal data.

 

First and third party cookies

Cookies set by the website owner (in this case, Cillco) are called "first party cookies". Cookies set by parties other than the website owner are called "third party cookies". Third party cookies enable third party features or functionality to be provided on or through the website (e.g. like advertising, interactive content and analytics). The parties that set these third party cookies can recognise your computer both when it visits the website in question and also when it visits certain other websites.


What cookies are used on Cillco websites?

Cillco wants you to be in a position to make an informed decision for or against the use of cookies which are not strictly necessary for the website’s technical features. If you elect to reject cookies used for advertising, you will be shown advertising that is less targeted to your interests. This will still allow you to use all of the functionality of the website.

Cillco differentiates between Necessary cookies, Performance cookies, Targeting cookies and Functional cookies.

Necessary cookies are necessary for the website to function and cannot be switched off in our systems. They are usually only set in response to actions made by you which amount to a request for services, such as setting your privacy preferences, logging in or filling in forms. You can set your browser to block or alert you about these cookies, but some parts of the site will then not work. These cookies do not store any personally identifiable information.

Performance cookies allow us to count visits and traffic sources so we can measure and improve the performance of our site. They help us to know which pages are the most and least popular and see how visitors move around the site. All information these cookies collect is aggregated and therefore anonymous. If you do not allow these cookies we will not know when you have visited our site, and will not be able to monitor its performance.

Targeting cookies may be set through our site by our advertising partners. They may be used by those companies to build a profile of your interests and show you relevant adverts on other sites. They do not store directly personal information, but are based on uniquely identifying your browser and internet device. If you do not allow these cookies, you will experience less targeted advertising.

Functional cookies enable the website to provide enhanced functionality and personalisation. They may be set by us or by third party providers whose services we have added to our pages. If you do not allow these cookies then some or all of these services may not function properly.
