This Cookie Policy describes how VUNKED LTD of 2/2 8 Sandringham Terrace, Esplanade, Greenock, PA16 7XL, (“VUNKED”, “we” or “us”) uses cookies and similar technologies to collect and store information when you visit www.vunked.co.uk.
For more information about our privacy practices and to learn about your privacy rights, please see our privacy policy, which is incorporated into this Cookie Policy.
What are cookies?
A cookie is a small data set that is stored on your terminal device and contains data such as personal page settings and login information. This record is generated and sent to you by the web server to which you have connected via your web browser.
Below are the most common types of cookies explained for your understanding:
Session cookies: while you are active on a website, a session cookie is temporarily stored in your computer’s memory, which stores a session identifier, for example, to prevent you from having to log in again each time you change pages. Session cookies are deleted when you log out or lose their validity once their session has automatically expired.
Permanent or protocol cookies: A permanent or protocol cookie stores a file on your computer for the period of time specified in the expiration date. These cookies allow the website to remember your information and settings the next time you visit. This results in faster and more convenient access, as you do not have to set your language preferences for our portal again, for example. When the expiration date passes, the cookie is automatically deleted when you visit the website that generated it.
Third-party cookies: Third-party cookies come from providers other than the website operator. For example, they may be used to collect information for advertising, custom content, and web statistics.
Why are cookies useful?
Cookies serve many different purposes, for example, they enable you to navigate our website efficiently, they save your preferred settings and generally improve your visiting experience.
The cookies we use on our websites can be divided into the following categories:
Necessary cookies: these cookies are necessary for the proper functioning of the websites; through them you can navigate our websites and use our functional features. An example of this is remembering recent actions (e.g., text entered) when you return to a page within the same session.
This data does not allow us to draw any direct conclusions about you. If you do not accept these cookies, this may affect the performance of the website or parts thereof.
Performance cookies: these cookies help us to understand how visitors interact with our websites by providing data about which websites or search terms bring users to our websites, how long they typically stay on our websites or how many subpages they visit on average.
We use this data to improve the content of the websites and to compile statistics for internal market analysis purposes on individual use of the websites. This data does not allow any direct conclusions to be drawn about your person.
Functional cookies: these cookies allow our websites to remember the choices you make (for example, your username, language, or the region you live in) to provide you with a more personalized online experience. They may also allow users to watch videos and interact with social tools.
Targeting/advertising cookies: These cookies are used to provide content that is more relevant to you and your interests (direct marketing). They can be used to provide targeted advertising or to limit the frequency with which an advertisement is shown to you. They also help us measure the effectiveness of advertising campaigns on VUNKED and non-VUNKED websites. In addition, we may use these cookies to store which websites you have visited.
