You can find more information about the individual cookies we use and the purposes for which we use them below:

Google Analytics Cookies: Google Analytics is a website monitoring tool that allows users to see volumes of website visitors, their source, and to analyse how the content of their website is viewed and navigated. This in turn allows optimisation of the content and pages and the marketing programs that drive traffic to the website. Google Analytics does not store any personal information about website visitors, but does use persistent cookies to identify repeat visitors. You may universally opt-out of all Google Analytics tracking used by all websites by visiting the following url https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout

Spotler Cookies: Spotler is a tool that identifies the business or organisation that website visitors belong to, based on a reverse IP Lookup. Spotler also use cookies to process this identification, and personal information about individual users. Cookies used by Spotler store information about your current web browsing session (pages viewed, time on site etc) and the dates and times of previous website visits.

This information is used by Spotler to profile website visitors, in order to better understand the way in which our website content is viewed by different segments. It is also used, for example, to identify the types of organisations that might be interested in our services.

Email Marketing Post-Click Tracking Cookies: These cookies are used to report on the pages that have been viewed by visitors to the site who have followed links from our email marketing campaigns. This analysis helps us to understand additional content that is viewed by the contacts in our database and therefore allows us to improve and tailor future campaigns to those contact’s specific areas of interest.

Beacons/Pixels:

On our website and in our emails we use web beacons (also known as pixel tags or clear GIFs). When we send emails to customers, we may track behaviour such as who opened the emails, who clicked the links and which pages of our website they have visited.

This allows us to measure the performance of our email campaigns and to improve our services and website. To do this, we include single pixel, also called web beacons, in emails we send. Web beacons allow us to collect information about when you open the email, your IP address, your browser or email client type, and other similar details.
