# Cookies Policy
This policy outlines what cookies and similar tracking technologies our websites use, how we use them and information on how to opt out of these cookies if you wish to do so. (Scroll to the bottom to out out)
What are cookies?
Cookies and similar tracking technologies, such as tags, scripts and beacons, are small pieces of code (referred to as cookies hereafter) that are stored on a device (computer, mobile phone, tablet etc) and enable a website to "personalise" itself to users by remembering information about the user's visit to the website. We also use cookies within emails we may send.
Cookies are used to collect information, where available, about your device, your IP address, operating system and browser type and how you have interacted with our websites.
While cookies are used to identify users and devices, they only ever collect non-personal information such as IP addresses, device IDs. If the data cookies collect are ever merged with any other information with which you have provided us, such as email addresses, these are anonymised in such a way that identification to actual people is impossible.
Why do we use them?
Our websites use cookies to gain insight into the nature of our audience so we can tailor our content accordingly.
What types of cookies do we use?
- Per-session cookies - We only use these while you are visiting our website and they are deleted when you leave. They remember you as you move between pages.
- Persistent cookies - These cookies stay on your computer until they expire or are deleted. We set automatic deletion dates so that we don't keep your information for longer than we need to.
- First and third-party cookies – Whether a cookie is ‘first’ or ‘third’ party refers to the website or domain placing the cookie. First party cookies in basic terms are cookies set by a website visited by the user - the website displayed in the URL window. Third party cookies are cookies that are set by a domain other than the one being visited by the user. If a user visits a website and a separate company sets a cookie through that website this would be a third-party cookie.
Below is a full list of all the different third-party cookies that we use:
| Cookie | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Google Analytics | Site Visitor Analytics | We use Google Analytics for aggregated, anonymized website traffic analysis. In order to track your session usage, Google drops a cookie (_ga) with a randomly-generated ClientID in your browser. This ID is anonymized and contains no identifiable information like email, phone number, name, etc. We also send Google your IP Address. We use GA to track aggregated website behavior, such as what pages you looked at, for how long, and so on. This information is important to us for improving the user experience and determining site effectiveness. If you would like to access what browsing information we have - or ask us to delete any GA data - please delete your _ga cookies (here's a tutorial to disable cookies) and reach out to us via this link. We are commited to respect your privacy. |
| Free Bundle Magazine | LocalStorage | Free Bundle Magazine uses your browser LocalStorage to store the name and link of the articles you chose to save to read for later in your Bookmarks section. These are stored within your browser and do not get deleted when you close your browser or end your session. We only store the article ID you bookmarked. |
Opting out of cookies
Please note that this website may not work correctly if you change certain preferences, such as disabling all cookies. If you still want to disable them, please follow the instructions in this page.
