What are cookies?
This Cookie Policy explains what cookies are and how we use them, the types of cookies we use i.e, the information we collect using cookies and how that information is used, and how to manage the cookie settings.
Cookies are small text files that are used to store small pieces of information. They are stored on your device when the website is loaded on your browser. These cookies help us make the website function properly, make it more secure, provide better user experience, and understand how the website performs and to analyze what works and where it needs improvement.
How do we use cookies?
As most of the online services, our website uses first-party and third-party cookies for several purposes. First-party cookies are mostly necessary for the website to function the right way, and they do not collect any of your personally identifiable data.
The third-party cookies used on our website are mainly for understanding how the website performs, how you interact with our website, keeping our services secure, providing advertisements that are relevant to you, and all in all providing you with a better and improved user experience and help speed up your future interactions with our website.
Types of Cookies we use
We use different types of cookies on our Site. We only need you to consent to some of the cookies we use. ‘Necessary cookies’ are needed to provide the cashback service offered to you, so these are exempt from the requirement to obtain your consent. We ask for your consent for ‘Analytical cookies’ and the cookies placed by the affiliate networks (more information about affiliate network cookies is in the ‘Affiliate Network’ section of this policy).
You can withdraw your consent at any time by deleting all cookies on your devices and / or by changing the cookie settings of your browser or device. We need to make you aware that if you do this, some parts of our Site and other websites and mobile apps will not function correctly if you disable cookies. This may mean you will not be able to claim any cashback.
Affiliate Networks
When you click through to a retailer from our Site, your browser redirects via an affiliate network which places a cookie on your computer. The cookie stores tracking information so that when you visit a retailer via our Site, any purchases made will result in the retailer reading this information. The retailer will then send us information about your purchase, at which point we can then credit your account. No personal information such as your name or email address is involved in this process. We recommend that you enable cookies in your browsers to make full use of the Site and to ensure that any purchases on third party sites are recorded.
Whilst the affiliate network cookie isn’t placed by us, we just wanted to tell you about it before you use our Site to make a transaction. By continuing to use our Site you agree to third parties such as affiliate networks and retailers featured on our Site using cookies for the purpose of tracking and awarding your cashback.
