Cookies

Cookies are text files placed on your computer to collect standard internet log information and visitor behaviour information. This information is used to track visitor use of the website and to compile statistical reports on website activity.

For more information visit www.aboutcookies.org or www.allaboutcookies.org. You can set your browser not to accept cookies and the above websites tell you how to remove cookies from your browser. However in a few cases some of our website features may not function as a result.

Aire Logic Limited websites use cookies to provide users with an enhanced browsing experience and also to allow us to improve our websites. You can accept or decline cookies on your first visit to this site.

‍Which cookies are used on Aire innovate Limited websites?

‍We use the types of cookies explained below on our sites, following the International Chamber of Commerce descriptions for them. By using any of our sites, you agree that we can place these types of cookies on your device:

Strictly necessary cookies

These are cookies that are required to enable users to login securely and navigate around the site. And (where appropriate) to enable us to tailor the content to fit the needs of the visitors. They include, for example, cookies that enable you to log into and use the secure area of our site.

Without these cookies, you will not be able to access the login area, and on the public area of the site, we cannot ensure that the correct web pages load or that the site performs as well as we intend it to.

Performance cookies

These cookies allow the website to remember choices you make (such as your user name, language or the region you are in) and provide enhanced, more personal features. These cookies can also be used to remember changes you have made to text size, fonts and other parts of web pages that you can customise.

They may also be used to provide services you have asked for such as watching a video or commenting on a blog. The information these cookies collect may be anonymised and they cannot track your browsing activity on other websites.

Functionality cookies

These are used to recognise you when you return to our website, so that, for example, your last view of any slideshow is saved or the homepage defaults to the correct version depending on your preferences (for example, your choice of screen view).

Targeting/advertising cookies

This type of cookie records your visit to our websites, the pages you have visited and the links you have followed or used to enter the site. Depending on the pages that you have visited, the cookie may trigger advertising for Aire Innovate Limited on third-party websites either related or unrelated to the business of Aire Innovate Limited.

For example, an Aire Innovate Limited advert may be displayed on a media, news, sports or general interest website that you may visit.

The targeting cookies may also be used for re-targeting or offer based promotional uses by Aire Innovate Limited from time to time. Please see the table below for a comprehensive list of the cookies used on each of the Aire Innovate Limited websites.

How long will the cookies remain?

The length of time for which any cookie remains on your device will depend on its type.

‍Session Cookies

‍These are temporary cookies, which only exist in the period you access the site and assist us in remembering your choice from a previous page, therefore avoiding having to re-enter information.

Persistent Cookies‍

These are cookies which remain on your device for up to a year after you have visited the site. These cookies help us to identify if you are a first time or frequent visitor. Whether a cookie is first or third party depends on where it comes from.

‍First party cookies‍

These are set by websites you go to‍‍

‍Third party cookies
These are set outside organisations. For instance, you may be on a website that has ‘like’ and ‘share’ buttons for social network sites. If you click one, the social network site will put a ‘third party’ cookie on your device. That cookie may then collect data about you and send it to them too. You will need to set your privacy choices on their site, to tell them how they can use your data.

We use our own cookies and others from companies we work with such as social media, search engines and other advertising networks.

How do I disable or refuse cookies?

Most browsers are set to accept cookies, but you can alter this should you prefer. Your navigation of some of our sites may be less efficient if your browser is set to disable cookies.

Nevertheless, if you wish to restrict or block the cookies which are set by us, or indeed any other website, the ‘help’ function within your browser should assist.

For information on how to control cookies on the browser of your mobile device, you will need to refer to your handset manual. Alternatively, you may wish to visit www.aboutcookies.org which contains comprehensive information on cookies.
