Cookie Policy

Last updated: 26 September 2024

We use cookies and similar technologies (“cookies”) on our website (adlerandallan.co.uk).

This cookie policy explains the cookies we use and the purposes for which we use them. We may change the cookies we use from time to time and, if so, we will update this policy accordingly. You can revisit this page at any time if you wish to keep yourself informed.

This cookie policy should be read in conjunction with our website privacy policy, which provides information about how we process your personal data when you visit our website.

What are cookies?

A cookie is a small, often encrypted text file of letters and numbers that we store on your browser and/or device that uniquely identify your device. They can contain other information as well, such as anonymised Internet Protocol (IP) addresses, browser type and language, internet service provider (ISP), operating systems, and referring and exit websites. Cookies are useful because they are sent back to our website each time you visit, enabling our site to ‘remember’ you or your device. A cookie cannot read data off your hard drive or read cookie files created by another website.

When we refer to cookies throughout this Cookie Policy, we also intend to cover all similar technologies that we may use, including web beacons and log files. A web beacon is a clear picture file used to keep track of a user’s navigation through a website or series of websites. Web beacons can be used in conjunction with cookies to understand how a user navigates and processes content on a website. Log files keep a record of certain events that are logged by a device, for example, events in an operating system.

Why do we use cookies?

We use cookies for various reasons, including to:

  • remember your cookie preferences
  • analyse traffic to our website
  • remember your login details to our Client Portal
  • distinguish users
  • implement data security
  • track website users’ browsing behaviour
  • gather customer journey information across our site
  • store details of website usage to improve our targeting and enhance your journey and experience through our site
  • evaluate our site’s advertising and promotional effectiveness
  • allow our advertising partners to store preferences and/or tailor their advertising

Who sets the cookies?

Cookies can be first-party or third-party cookies.

  • First-party cookies: Cookies that the operator of the website you are visiting places on your device.
  • Third-party cookies: Cookies placed on your computer through the website but by third parties, such as data management or advertising platforms.

How long do cookies last?

In terms of duration, the type of cookies we use can be separated into two broad categories.

  • Session cookies: Session cookies are temporary files which last only as long as your browsing session and are erased once you close your browser.
  • Persistent cookies: Persistent cookies are files that stay in your browser’s subfolders after you close your browser. These are stored on your device for longer periods of time, subject to your browser settings.

We may update this Cookie Policy to reflect changes in our practices or for other operational, legal, or regulatory reasons. When we make changes, we will update the ‘last updated’ date at the top of this policy.
