2. How Do We Use Cookies on Our Sites?
Our Sites may place and access certain first party Cookies on your computer or device. First party Cookies are those placed directly by Us and are used only by Us. We use Cookies to facilitate and improve your experience of Our Sites and to provide and improve Our products and/or services. We have carefully chosen these Cookies and have taken steps to ensure that your privacy and personal data is protected and respected at all times.
By using Our Sites, you may also receive certain third party Cookies on your computer or device. Third party Cookies are those placed by websites, services, and/or parties other than Us. Third party Cookies are used on Our Sites only to enable analytics services provided by Google Inc. Website analytics refers to a set of tools used to collect and analyse anonymous usage information about you and other people who visit Our Sites. You do not have to allow Us to use these Cookies, however whilst Our use of them does not pose any risk to your privacy or your safe use of Our Sites, it does enable Us to continually improve Our Sites, making it a better and more useful experience for you.
All Cookies used by and on Our Sites are used in accordance with current Cookie Law. We may use some or all of the following types of Cookie:
- Strictly Necessary Cookie(s):
A Cookie falls into this category if it is essential to the operation of Our Sites, supporting functions such as logging in to clients.engys.com. Please note that you cannot deny consent to the placing of Strictly Necessary Cookies, although you can still disable these Cookies in your internet browser.
- Analytics Cookie(s)
It is important for Us to understand how you use Our Sites, for example, how efficiently you are able to navigate around them, and what features you use. Analytics Cookies enable us to gather this information, helping Us to improve Our Sites and your experience of them.
- Functionality Cookie(s)
Functionality Cookies enable Us to provide additional functions to you on Our Sites such as personalisation and remembering your saved preferences. Some functionality Cookies may also be Strictly Necessary Cookies, but not all necessarily fall into that category.
- Targeting Cookie(s)
It is important for Us to know when and how often you visit Our Sites, and which parts of them you have used (including which pages you have visited and which links you have visited). As with Analytics Cookies, this information helps us to better understand you and, in turn, to make Our Sites and offerings more relevant to your interests.
- Persistent Cookie(s)
Any of the above types of Cookie may be a Persistent Cookie. Persistent Cookies are those which remain on your computer or device for a predetermined period and are activated each time you visit Our Sites.
- Session Cookie(s)
Any of the above types of Cookie may be a Session Cookie. Session Cookies are temporary and only remain on your computer or device from the point at which you visit any of Our Sites until you close your browser. Session Cookies are deleted when you close your browser.
Cookies on Our Sites are not permanent and will expire as indicated in the tables included below in Clause 3.
If you share Our content through social media, for example by liking Us on LinkedIn, following or tweeting about Us on Twitter, or giving Us a ‘+1′ via Google Plus or YouTube, those social networks will record that you have done so and may set a Cookie for this purpose. In some cases, where a page on Our Sites includes content from a social network, such as a Twitter feed, those services may set a Cookie even where you do not click any buttons. As is the case for all Cookies, We cannot access those set by social networks, just as those social networks cannot access cookies We set ourselves on Our Sites.
For more details of the personal data that We collect and use, the measures we have in place to protect personal data, your legal rights, and our legal obligations, please refer to Our Privacy Notice.
