3. Cookies
Use of cookies
A cookie is an element of data that a website can send to your computer (or other electronic device), which may then store it on your system. Cookies allow us to understand who has seen which pages and advertisements on our website, to determine how frequently particular pages are visited and to determine the most popular areas of our website. Non-personal information such as browser type, operating system, and domain names, may be collected during visitors' use of the Website and this information may be used by us to measure the number of visitors to the Website. Unless you have indicated your objection when disclosing your details to us, our system will issue cookies to your computer when you log on to the Website.
Consent to cookies
There is a notice on our website home page which describes how we use cookies. If you use this Website after this notification has been displayed to you, we will assume that you consent to our use of cookies for the purposes described in this Policy.
What types of cookies do we use?
We may use cookies and similar tools across our website to improve its performance and enhance your user experience.
First party cookies: We set these cookies and they can only be read by us.
Persistent cookies: We may use persistent cookies which will be saved on your computer for a fixed period (usually 1 year or longer). They won’t be deleted when the browser is closed. We may use persistent cookies to recognise your device for more than one browsing session.
Session cookies: We may use session cookies which are only stored temporarily during a browsing session and will be deleted from your device when the browser is closed.
Third party cookies: We may use several third-party suppliers who also set cookies on our website in order to deliver the services that they are providing. These cookies are known as third party cookies.
Depending on the type of cookies we use, cookies also allow us to make our website more user-friendly. For example, persistent cookies allow us to save your password so that you do not have to re-enter it every time you visit our website. Our website may also use cookies to monitor website traffic and/or to make sure you don't see the same content repeatedly and/or to deliver content specific to your interests.
The cookies that we use can be roughly divided into four categories based on the function that they carry out on the Website.
Essential Cookies
Essential cookies enable a website to function at its best. For our website this means making your shopping experience as straightforward as possible. The Website requires essential cookies to be present to:
- remember what is in a shopper's basket.
- allow the contents of a shopper's basket to be transferred to the checkout and purchased; and
- determine whether a customer is signed into a secure area of the Website such as the checkout area.
Essential cookies are not harmful to your computer, and they do not store personal data such as your credit card details.
Functionality Cookies
Functionality cookies are designed to save personal data, such as names and addresses, which on return to the Website will not need to be filled out again. Functionality cookies also remember important information such as your response if asked to fill out a survey which will be remembered to prevent unnecessary repetition. To summarise, functionality cookies do the following:
- tell us if you have already logged in to your account.
- tell us if this is your first visit to the Website; and
- enable live chat services to function correctly.
Third Party Cookies
Third party cookies determine which adverts are most likely to be preferable to a customer based on their interest. These cookies will also assess how effective an advertising campaign is towards customers and limit how often adverts are shown accordingly. The bulk of third-party cookies are placed onto a shopper's computer by the selected advertising organisations that we have granted permission to do so. These cookies work to remember when customers visit our website and will then inform our advertising organisations so that they can provide adverts of probable interest. To summarise, third party cookies do the following:
- gather information about a customer's typical browsing habits; and
- display adverts of most relevance to you.
The information stored in third party cookies to display adverts is completely anonymous and therefore contains none of your personal details.
