COOKIES POLICY

What are cookies?

​

Cookies are small text files created on your device when you visit websites. The

information stored in a cookie is used to provide a better user experience. This is

achieved directly by remembering a visitor’s preferences and also indirectly through

providing the website owners with information about the visitor’s likes and dislikes

which are then fed back into the site design.

​

How We Use Cookies?

​

We have a very simple cookie policy. We only use cookies where it is adding value

to the end user. Cookies can be placed by us (First Party) and also by some of our

partners (Third Party). We use two types of cookies:

ï‚· Session Cookies

ï‚· Persistent Cookies

​

Session Cookies

​

These are First Party cookies created, managed and destroyed by the website

technology. These cookies are created when a visitor first lands on the site and

destroyed when the visitor leaves the site. Simple! The information stored in these

cookies is very basic, it helps with handling website errors, redirecting visitors to the

right section of the site and tracking where the visitors are coming from. No

personally identifiable information will be stored or collected.

​

Persistent Cookies

​

These are cookies created by third party providers who supply services vital for site

operations. These cookies generally have a life time and are automatically destroyed

on reaching their expiry time.

​

Analytics

​

Analytics are a class of software which monitor visitor behaviour once on the site e.g.

a visitor coming to a site will be given a unique identification number. Along with this

identification number the cookie will store where the user came from and when. This

information will be stored on the computer where the visitor accessed the site.

Moving to another computer, this information will not be available. Through Analytics

we can determine how to improve our site so that visitors can find what they are

looking for quicker. We use Google Analytics to achieve this.

 

Marketing

​

There are many different types of marketing cookies. Most of them only store

information regarding the visit rather than the visitor. For example, once on the site a

third party cookie will hold information about the visit along with whether the visitor

purchased the product or not. All information is managed only by sophisticated

systems which generalise all the information and are not able to identify any visitor

by personal information, only through their interaction on our site. Some of the

information from marketing cookies might be used for retargeting visitors who have

not purchased a certain product. Again, no personal information is stored here and

the retargeting merely works on the principle of visiting the site and not buying.

​

I still don’t trust cookies. How can I avoid them?

​

We totally understand your concerns. We are working very hard towards providing

our visitors an option to stop any cookies being created when on our site. However,

given our reliance on this particular technology this will take some time. You can

disable cookies from within your browser and this will not allow any website to create

cookies.
