COOKIES POLICY

 

To make this site work properly, we sometimes place small data files called cookies on your device. Most big websites do this too.

1. What are cookies?

A cookie is a small text file that a website saves on your computer or mobile device when you visit the site. It enables the website to remember your actions and preferences (such as login, language, font size and other display preferences) over a period of time, so you don’t have to keep re-entering them whenever you come back to the site or browse from one page to another.

2. How do we use cookies?

Enabling these cookies is not strictly necessary for the website to work but it will provide you with a better browsing experience. You can delete or block these cookies, but if you do that some features of this site may not work as intended.

The cookie-related information is not used to identify you personally and the pattern data is fully under our control. These cookies are not used for any purpose other than those described here.

3.  What cookies do we use?

3.1. We use Google Analytic Cookies for the purpose of statistics
These cookies enable us to store information anonymously such as the time you visit our Site, whether you have visited before and the website that you visited prior to visiting our Site. We also use the Google Analytics Cookie to record what you answer in the Alcohol Test. The information is stored anonymously.

For more information about Google Analytics please see: http://www.google.com/intl/en/analytics/privacyoverview.html

How long a Google Analytics cookie remains on your computer or device depends on what it is and what it is used for. Some Google Analytics cookies expire at the end of your browser session, whilst others can remain for up to two years. You can delete Google Analytics cookies and other cookies at any time by clearing your cache.

3.2. We use Facebook Pixel for the purpose of marketing

This cookie is used to track the level of conversion from Facebook ads and to target users with Facebook ads based on the actions they take on our Site.

This pixel records information about a user's browser session, which it sends to Facebook, along with an anonymised version of the Facebook ID and the URL viewed. This allows us to target our Facebook advertising to audiences of people who have visited the Site.

This cookies tracks conversions that happen within 1 day, 7 days, and 28 days after a person clicks an ad, and 1 day, 7 days, and 28 days after an ad is viewed. You can delete the Facebook Pixel cookies and other cookies at any time by clearing your cache.


3.3. We use Twitter Pixel for the purpose of marketing

This is used for tracking the number of users who link to the Site from Twitter ads.

The standard duration of the Twitter pixel is 14 days. You can delete the Twitter pixel by clearing your cache file.


3.4. We use Hotjar cookies for purpose of statistics and user experience.

Hotjar does not track or record visitors who have cookies disabled. The Hotjar script doesn't properly load its different components if it detects that cookies are disabled. Learn more

Cookies set by the Hotjar script:

  • _hjClosedSurveyInvites: Hotjar cookie. This cookie is set once a visitor interacts with a Survey invitation modal popup. It is used to ensure that the same invite does not re-appear if it has already been shown. Duration: 365 Days

  • _hjDonePolls: Hotjar cookie. This cookie is set once a visitor completes a poll using the Feedback Poll widget. It is used to ensure that the same poll does not re-appear if it has already been filled in. Duration: 365 days

  • _hjMinimizedPolls: Hotjar cookie. This cookie is set once a visitor minimises a Feedback Poll widget. It is used to ensure that the widget stays minimises when the visitor navigates through your site. Duration: 365 days

  • _hjDoneTestersWidgets: Hotjar cookie. This cookie is set once a visitor submits their information in the Recruit User Testers widget. It is used to ensure that the same form does not re-appear if it has already been filled in. Duration: 365 days

  • _hjIncludedInSample: Hotjar cookie. This session cookie is set to let Hotjar know whether that visitor is included in the sample which is used to generate funnels. Duration: 365 days

  • _hjShownFeedbackMessage: This cookie is set when a visitor minimises or completes Incoming Feedback. This is done so that the Incoming Feedback will load as minimised immediately if they navigate to another page where it is set to show. Duration: 365 days

  • _hjid: Hotjar cookie. This cookie is set when the customer first lands on a page with the Hotjar script. It is used to persist the Hotjar User ID, unique to that site on the browser. This ensures that behaviour in subsequent visits to the same site will be attributed to the same user ID. Duration: 365 days

  • _hjRecordingLastActivity: This should be found in session Storage (as opposed to cookies). This gets updated when a visitor recording starts and when data is sent through the WebSocket (the visitor performs an action that Hotjar records). Duration: Session

  • hjTLDTest: When the Hotjar script executes we try to determine the most generic cookie path we should use, instead of the page hostname. This is done so that cookies can be shared across subdomains (where applicable). To determine this, we try to store the _hjTLDTest cookie for different URL substring alternatives until it fails. After this check, the cookie is removed. Duration: Session

  • _hjUserAttributesHash: User Attributes sent through the Hotjar Identify API are cached for the duration of the session in order to know when an attribute has changed and needs to be updated. Duration: Session

  • _hjCachedUserAttributes: This cookie stores User Attributes which are sent through the Hotjar Identify API, whenever the user is not in the sample. These attributes will only be saved if the user interacts with a Hotjar Feedback tool. Duration: Session

  • _hjLocalStorageTest: This cookie is used to check if the Hotjar Tracking Script can use local storage. If it can, a value of 1 is set in this cookie. The data stored in_hjLocalStorageTest has no expiration time, but it is deleted immediately after creating it so the expected storage time is under 100ms. Duration: N/A


3.5. We use Vimeo cookies for purpose of statistics

Some videos embedded in our pages use a cookie to anonymously gather statistics on how you got there and what videos you visited.

4. How to control cookies

You can delete all cookies that are already on your computer and you can set most browsers to prevent them from being placed. If you do this, however, you may have to manually adjust some preferences every time you visit a site and some services and functionalities may not work.
