WHAT COOKIES WE USE AND WHY

 

Cookies are small text files, which often include a unique identifier that is sent by a web server to your computer, mobile phone or any other internet enabled device (“device”) when you visit a website. Cookies are widely used in order to make websites work efficiently and help provide us with business and marketing information to enable us to make informed decisions on the development of our websites.

 

We use three main types of cookies

 

'Performance' cookies

 

These help us see how you use our website e.g. which pages you visit. These cookies don't collect any information that could identify you – all the information collected is anonymous and is only used to help us improve the performance of our website, understand what interests our users and measure how effective our advertising is.

We use performance cookies to:

 

  • analyse the performance of our website

  • help us improve the website by measuring any errors that occur

  • see how effective our adverts are (this isn’t shared with 3rd parties).

 

Sometimes cookies are managed for us by third parties, but we don't allow the third party to use the cookies for any purpose other than those listed above.

 

By using our site, you accept the use of 'Performance' cookies.

 

‘Identification' cookies

 

These are used to help us customise website content based upon your selections.

We use identification cookies to:

 

  • remember choices you have made such as identifying yourself as an IFA or Adviser

  • show you when you're logged in to the website.

  • target you with adverts on other websites

 

You can control whether or not these cookies are used but preventing them may mean you are unable to access certain features or services. Preventing these cookies may stop us remembering that you didn't want a specific feature or service.

 

By using our site, you accept the use of 'Identification' cookies.

 

‘Targeting’ cookies

 

These are used to send you relevant information and see which content you use.

We use targeting cookies to:

 

  • send you customised news content via email

  • track which content you use.

  • target you with adverts on other websites

 

By using our site, you accept the use of 'Targeting' cookies.
