Cookies explained

A cookie is a piece of information that is stored on your computer’s hard drive by your web browser. On revisiting our site our server will recognize the cookie, giving us information about your visit.

When we use cookies

We allocate cookies during the registration process for our services. These cookies will hold information collected during your registration and will allow us to recognize you as a customer and provide you with the services you require. If your browser is set to reject cookies, you may not be able to use Kintoweb member services.

For visitors to our web site, we use cookies to collect information. Our servers use two different types of cookies. The first type is known as a ‘session-based’ cookie and is allocated to your computer only for the duration of your visit to our web site. It helps you to move around the web site faster and, if you’re a registered customer, it allows us to give you information relevant to your selected Kintoweb service. This cookie automatically expires when you close down your browser.

The second type of cookie is known as a ‘persistent’ cookie. These cookies will remain on your computer for a period of time set for each cookie. This cookie allows us to:

  • Limit how often you see a particular advertisement or announcement on our web site
  • Identify your preferences when customising content for you
  • Provide you with relevant self-help information
  • Record how many times you visit a page or advertisement
  • Confirm you are a registered user and save your login details when accessing certain services on our website
  • Collect statistics on the use of our services
  • We may also use cookies and web beacons to ensure that our mailing tools are working properly
  • Other companies which advertise or offer their products or services on our web sites will also allocate cookies to your computer.
  • The types of cookies they use and how they use the information generated by them will be governed by those companies’ Privacy Policies. We have no control over these.
