How We Use Cookies on our Website

We use cookies and similar tools across our website to improve their performance and enhance your user experience.  This policy explains how we do that.

What are cookies?

Cookies are small text files which a website may put on your computer or mobile device when you first visit a site or page.  The cookie will help the website to recognise your device the next time you visit.  Web beacons or other similar files can also do the same thing.  We use the term “cookies” in this policy to refer to all files that collect information this way.

There are many functions cookies serve.  For example, they can help us to remember your username and preferences, analyse how well our website is performing, or even allow us to recommend content we believe will be most relevant to you.

Certain cookies contain personal information – for example, if you click to “remember me” when logging in, a cookie will store your username.  Most cookies won’t collect information that identifies you, and will instead collect more general information such as how users arrive and use our website, or a user’s general location.

What sort of cookies do Jubb use?

Session Cookies

These allow websites to link the actions of a user during a browser session.  They may be used for a variety of purposes such as remembering what a user has put in their shopping basket as they browse around a site.  They could also be used for security when a user is accessing internet banking or to facilitate use of webmail.  These session cookies expire after a browser session so would not be stored long-term.  For this reason session cookies may sometimes be considered less privacy intrusive than persistent cookies.

Does anyone else use cookies on this Website?

We also use or allow third parties to serve cookies that fall into the categories above.  For example, like many companies, we use Google Analytics to help us monitor our website traffic.  We may also use third party cookies to help us with market research, revenue tracking, improving site functionality and monitoring compliance with our terms and conditions and copyright policy.

Can a website user block cookies?
