VISITORS TO OUR WEBSITE

When someone visits https://cgomedia.com/, we use a third-party service, Google Analytics, to collect standard internet log information and details of visitor behaviour patterns. We do this to find out things such as the number of visitors to the various parts of the site. This information is only processed in a way which does not identify anyone.

MAILING LIST SIGN UP + PRODUCT DOWNLOADS

As part of the registration process for our mailing list sign ups or resource downloads, we collect personal information. We use that information for a couple of reasons: to tell you about stuff you’ve asked us to tell you about; to contact you if we need to obtain or provide additional information; to check our records are right and to check now and then that you’re happy and satisfied. We don’t rent or trade email lists with other organisations and businesses.

We use third-party providers, MailChimp and HubSpot, to collect and store this information. We gather statistics around email opening and clicks using industry standard technologies to help us monitor and improve our emails.

COOKIES POLICY

We use a system of classifying the different types of cookies which we use on the website, or which may be used by third parties through our websites. The classification was developed by the International Chamber of Commerce UK and explains more about which cookies we use, why we use them, and the functionality you will lose if you decide you don’t want to have them on your device.

WHAT IS A COOKIE?

Cookies are text files containing small amounts of information which are downloaded to your personal computer, mobile or another device when you visit a website. Cookies are then sent back to the originating website on each subsequent visit, or to another website that recognises that cookie. Cookies are useful because they allow a website to recognise a user’s device.

HOW LONG ARE COOKIES STORED FOR?

Persistent cookies – these cookies remain on a user’s device for the period specified in the cookie. They are activated each time that the user visits the website that created that particular cookie.

Session cookies – these cookies allow website operators to link the actions of a user during a browser session. A browser session starts when a user opens the browser window and finishes when they close the browser window. Session cookies are created temporarily. Once you close the browser, all session cookies are deleted.

Cookies do lots of different jobs, like letting you navigate between pages efficiently, remembering your preferences, and generally improve the user experience.

You can find more information about cookies at www.allaboutcookies.org and www.youronlinechoices.eu.
