COOKIES POLICY

Cookies and other technologies  (Ways into Work Cookie Policy March 2021)

Our site uses cookies and other similar technologies to collect and store certain information. These typically involve pieces of information or code that a website transfers to or accesses from your computer hard drive or mobile device to store and sometimes track information about you. Cookies and similar technologies enable you to be remembered when using that computer or device to interact with websites and online services and can be used to remember the details you submit through a form such as those found on the contact page or referral form. 

Our site uses cookies and similar technologies to distinguish you from other users of our site. This helps us to provide you with a good experience when you browse our site and also allows us to improve our site. 

Most web browsers automatically accept cookies and similar technologies, but if you prefer, you can change your browser to prevent this and your help screen or manual will tell you how to do this. We also give you information about how to disable cookies [insert link to section]. However, you may not be able to take full advantage of our website if you do so.

A number of cookies and similar technologies we use last only for the duration of your web session and expire when you close your browser. Others are used to remember you when you return to the site and will last for longer. 

We use these cookies and other technologies on the basis that they are necessary for the performance of a contract with you, or because using them is in our legitimate interests (where we have considered that these are not overridden by your rights), and, in some cases, where required by law, where you have consented to their use.

We use cookies and other similar technologies, either alone or in combination with each other to create a unique device ID.

We use the following types of cookies:

• Strictly necessary cookies. These are cookies that are required for the operation of our website and under our terms with you. 
• Analytical/performance cookies. They allow us to recognise and count the number of visitors and to see how visitors move around our website when they are using it. This helps us improve the way our website works, for example, by ensuring that users are finding what they are looking for easily. 
• Functionality cookies. These are used to recognise you when you return to our website. This enables us, subject to your choices and preferences, to remember information about you, so that you don't have to give it to us again.
