Cookies
Cookies are typically little bits of text downloaded to your computer when you interact with a website. Your computer uses this information to remember what you looked at and anywhere where you have set preferences for what you do and don’t want to see.
The word ‘cookies’ is used to cover all technologies that behave in a similar way, such as ‘pixels’ or pixel tags’.
By using the We Are Extraordinary website, you are consenting to the use of cookies.
There are different types of cookies and you have choices in managing them:
- Required cookies: ensure that you receive a service requested (without them you may not get what you are expecting).
- Advertising cookies: to track what you have shown an interest in (this works to both show you more and less of the same type of thing, depending on what you have done e.g. the ideal is to make sure you do not see repeat advertising for something you have already purchased).
- Analysis cookies: these are used to track and monitor how you are interacting with the website, to ensure that popular information and pages are the easiest to find and that unused, unseen or otherwise less popular information is updated or changed (where legally possible, i.e. this page stays no matter what!).
We Are Extraordinary uses a cookie consent tool, which is a plugin that provides a ‘pop-up box’ of permission to use cookies when you first visit this website. The pop up box can be dismissed for a period of time (it’s set to one month currently), but if you have enabled a pop-up blocker in your browser, this may not work as intended (the intention is to get your permission to use cookies).
In addition to this tool, most browsers give you a tool to manage cookie preferences: to see how many and which ones are being used, to notify you when a new one is added and to disable some or all cookies altogether. Please note that changing your browser settings might mean the We Are Extraordinary website doesn’t work as you expect.
