Cookies Policy
What are cookies?
Our websites, email messages and advertisements may use “cookies” and other technologies.
A cookie is a small text file that is stored on your computer, smartphone or any other device optimised for the internet when visiting a website. This text file stores information that can be read by the website when visiting it again at a later date and the files may be in one of two forms:
- Session cookies: only stored on your computer during your web session and automatically deleted when you close your browser – they usually store an anonymous session ID allowing you to browse a website without having to log in to each page but they do not collect any information from your computer.
- Persistent cookies: stored as a file on your computer that remains there when you close your web browser. The cookie can be read by the website that created it when you visit that website again. For instance, we use persistent cookies such as Google Analytics and for personalisation (see below).
Some of these cookies are necessary because otherwise the website is unable to function properly. Cookies are also used to optimise the performance of the website.
Other cookies are convenient for the visitor: they remember your username in a secure way as well as your language preferences, for example. The school uses such cookies to help us provide you with a better user experience tailored to your personal preferences. By using cookies, we ensure that you do not receive or need to enter the same information every single time you visit the website.
Information collected by cookies and other technologies are most of the time non-personal information. However, to the extent that Internet Protocol (IP) addresses or similar identifiers are considered personal information by certain laws, we also treat these identifiers as personal data. Similarly, to the extent that non-personal information is combined with personal data, we treat the combined information as personal data for the purposes of this privacy notice.
