- COOKIES POLICY – INFORMATION INSIGHT ENGINEERS COLLECTS FROM YOU
- a) What is a cookie?
A cookie is a small amount of data, which often includes a unique identifier that is sent to your computer, tablet or mobile phone (referred to here as a “device”) browser from a website’s computer and is stored on your device’s hard drive. Each website can send its own cookie to your browser if your browser’s preferences allow it, but (to protect your privacy) your browser only permits a website to access the cookies it has already sent to you, not the cookies sent to you by other websites. Many websites do this whenever a user visits their website in order to track online traffic flows.
During the course of any visit to our website, the pages you see, along with a cookie, are downloaded to your device. Many websites do this because cookies enable website publishers to do useful things like find out whether the device (and probably its user) has visited the website before. This is done on a repeat visit by checking to see, and finding, the cookie left there on the last visit.
- b) How does Insight engineers use cookies?
Information supplied by cookies can help us to analyse the profile of our visitors and help us to provide you with a better user experience. We use this type of information to help improve the services we provide to you. All third parties are strictly required not to use any information for their own business or other purposes.
- c) Third party cookies in embedded content on our pages
Please note that during your visits to our websites you may notice some cookies that are not related to us. When you visit a page with content embedded from, for example, Spotify, you may be presented with cookies from these websites. We do not control the dissemination of these cookies. You should check the third party websites for more information about these.
- d) Insight engineers cookies and how to reject them
Full information about how Insight engineers uses cookies can be found in our Cookie Policy.
If you wish to control what cookies are set on your device through the website then you can find out how to do this in our Cookie Policy. You should note that if you change your settings and block certain cookies, certain personalised features will not be able to be provided to you and therefore you may not be able to take full advantage of all of our website’s features.
- DO NOT TRACK (DNT) BROWSER SETTING
DNT is a feature offered by some browsers which, when enabled, sends a signal to websites to request that your browsing is not tracked, such as by third party ad networks, social networks and analytics companies. This website does not currently respond to DNT requests, however you may opt-out of tracking on this website, including analytics by changing your cookie settings.
