Cookies / Pixels
What is a Cookie / Pixel?
A cookie is a simple text file that is downloaded and stored on your computer by your web browser, each time you visit a website. Each cookie is unique to your web browser, and only your web browser will be able to retrieve and/or read the contents of cookies on your computer. The web browser will store cookies and then send them back to the relevant website on subsequent visits so that it remembers you.
Cookies contain anonymous information such as a unique identifier, the website name and some digits and numbers. We use a mixture of ‘session’ cookies, cookies stored in your web browser for a limited time while you are accessing our website, and ‘persistent’ cookies, those which are stored for days (sometimes months) and which are activated each time you revisit our website.
Why use Cookies / Pixel?
Most websites you visit will use cookies in order to improve your user experience, namely by enabling that website to recognise you and remember things like personalised details or user preferences. And when we say ‘you’, we mean your computer.
An example of how and why we use cookies is when we show you event announcements on our homepage. We don’t want to bombard you with the same announcement lots of times, so we set a cookie in your browser so it remembers you have seen the ad once or twice already.
What cookies are used on this website?
- Experience cookies: These cookies are used to optimise a user’s experience of a website, by enhancing the performance and functionality of our website. They allow us to improve the content that we offer you by understanding how you like to use it (for example we can see the areas of our website that you like best). These tracking cookies are provided by Google Analytics. “Tracking” enables us to count the number of times you have seen something, which in turn means we can make sure that we don’t show you the same event announcements twice (as mentioned above).
- Marketing Cookies: These cookies are used to anonymously track and target each unique visitor to a website, either on the website alone or from a third party advertising campaign to the website. We use these cookies to understand your previous web browsing activity. This allows us (and our partners) to understand anonymous things about you, such as your demographics (i.e. age, gender, music preferences).
Our cookies / pixels or third party?
In most cases the cookies are set by the website you visit. However, cookies may also be set by third parties where third party applications are embedded in our website such as:
- YouTube – if you watch a video
- Facebook / Twitter and other social networks if you share a page on your social network
- Facebook Tracking / Conversion pixel
- Google Analytics
About Google Analytics

- The pages you visit
- How long you spend on each page
- How you got to our sites – search engine, social media, affiliate link etc.
- What you click on while you’re visiting our sites
We don’t collect or store your personal information (for example your name or address) so this information can’t be used to identify who you are.
