This is the cookie policy for www.haventus.com (our website).
Our website uses ‘cookies’ and other technologies to distinguish you from other users of our website. Our website is operated by Haventus. This policy should be read together with Haventus’s privacy policy which sets out details of the Haventus group of companies which operate our website and process personal data in connection with our website, details of how and why we collect, store, use, share and process personal information generally, as well as your rights in relation to your personal information and details of how to contact us and supervisory authorities if you have a complaint in relation to our use of cookies or processing of your personal data.
Our website may link to other websites owned and operated by certain third parties. These other third party websites may also use cookies or similar technologies in accordance with their own separate policies. For privacy information relating to these other third party websites, please consult their policies as appropriate.
What are cookies?
Cookies are small text files transferred and stored by your web browser to your device (for example, your computer or mobile device) when you visit or use a website. Cookies allow websites to recognise your device and store some information about your preferences or past actions.
Cookies can be considered as ‘first party’ or ‘third party’ cookies depending on the domain that places them. First party cookies are cookies set by a website visited by the user (for example, cookies placed by Haventus for www.haventus.com). Third party cookies are set by a domain other than that of the website visited by the user, so if a user visits a website and a third-party organisation sets a cookie through that website, this would be a third-party cookie. This website uses first party and third party cookies. Cookies can also be considered as ‘persistent’ or ‘session’ cookies depending on their duration. Persistent cookies remain on a user’s device for the time specified in those cookies. They are activated every time that user visits the website that created the cookies, until the cookies expire or are disabled by the user. Session cookies allow the actions of a user to be linked during a single browsing session. A session starts when a user opens a browser window and ends when the browser window is closed, following which all session cookies are deleted. This website uses session and persistent cookies.
Why do we use cookies?
We use cookies and other similar technologies to collect information about your browsing activity and about the device you have used to access our website (including the make, model and operating system, IP address, browser type and mobile device identifiers) so we can provide features and functionality on our website, including:
- To make our website as easy and intuitive as possible for you to use.
- To monitor and analyse website usage and performance so we can measure the effectiveness of our website and improve it (including security).
- To remember choices you make when visiting our website and recognise you when you return so you don’t have to remind us.
- To remember certain information about your browsing activity on our website, such as the web pages you have viewed and your preferences. This information can then be used to personalise and improve the way you interact with our website (for example, displaying content we think might be relevant to you based on your previous activity).
Why do we use cookies on this website?
The cookies used on our website can be broken down into two categories:
- strictly necessary; and
- performance and analytics.
Strictly necessary
These 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 that amount to a request for services, such as setting your privacy preferences, or (if and to the extent applicable) logging in or filling in forms. You can set your browser to block or alert you about these cookies, but then some parts of the site will not work.
Performance and analytics
These cookies allow us to count visits and traffic sources so we can measure and improve site performance. They help us to know which pages are the most and least popular and see how visitors move around the site. If you do not allow these cookies we will not know when you have visited our site and may not be able to monitor its performance.
Managing cookies
We will ask for your consent to place cookies or other similar technologies on your device, except where they are essential for us to provide you with a service that you have requested (i.e. strictly necessary cookies).
When you visit our website, you will be presented with a cookie banner. It gives you the choice to accept or reject the use of non-essential cookies on our website. It will also present you with a link to our cookie manager. Through the cookie manager, you can choose to opt-in or opt-out of the types of cookies active on our website. You can also find out a bit more about what we use cookies for. Our cookie manager will only remember your preferences for our site for the specific browser that you’re using at that time.
If you wish to change your cookie settings generally, or to delete cookies stored on your device, you may be able to do so via your browser settings. For further information about cookies and how to disable them please go to the guidance on cookies published by the UK Information Commissioner’s Office, or www.aboutcookies.org.
