Smart Statistics Cookie Notice

1. General Information

When you visit a website, it may store or retrieve information on your browser, primarily through cookies. These small data files help the site function as expected and enhance your experience by remembering your preferences, device settings, or login details. While this information typically does not directly identify you, it contributes to a more personalised browsing experience.

You have control over your cookie settings and can choose to block certain types. However, restricting cookies may affect how the site functions and limit the services available to you.

Cookies can be categorised as first-party or third-party. First-party cookies are set by our website to remember details like language preferences or login credentials. Third-party cookies, set by external domains, support features such as advertising and analytics.

This Cookie Notice applies to our website as outlined in our Privacy Notice and aims to provide transparency about how cookies are used.

2. Types of cookies

We use session-based and persistent cookies, along with similar technologies such as web beacons, to enhance user experience and gather insights into how our website is used. Cookies are created either by us (first-party cookies) or by third-party providers we have authorised (third-party cookies).

Below are the types of cookies we use:

  • Necessary Cookies: These cookies are essential for the website to function and cannot be disabled in our systems. They are typically set in response to actions you take, such as adjusting privacy settings, logging in, or completing forms. While you can configure your browser to block or notify you about these cookies, some parts of the website may not work properly as a result. These cookies do not store personally identifiable information.
  • Performance Cookies: These cookies help us track visitor numbers and traffic sources, allowing us to measure and enhance our website’s performance. They show us which pages are most and least popular and how visitors navigate the site. All data collected by these cookies is aggregated and anonymous. If you disable these cookies, we will not be able to monitor site performance or track your visit.
  • Functional Cookies: These cookies enable advanced features and personalisation on the website. They may be set by us or by third-party providers whose services we integrate into our pages. Disabling these cookies may result in some or all of these services not functioning correctly.
  • Marketing Cookies: These cookies may be set by our advertising partners and used to create a profile of your interests, enabling relevant advertisements on other websites. They do not store directly identifiable personal data but rely on uniquely identifying your browser and internet device. If you choose to disable these cookies, you will receive less targeted advertising.

4. Third-party cookies

Third-party cookies are cookies that may collect data across different web domains owned or operated by separate entities. They are primarily used to customise advertising based on your preferences or interests, which are either known or inferred from the data collected.
