Our Cookies notice

Learn about Cookies

Cookies are text files containing small amounts of information that are set on your device when you visit a website. The information stored in cookies is sent back to the originating website server on each visit or to other vendors that provide services used in the delivery of the website. Cookies are useful because they allow a website to recognize the device you are using and provide you with a better website experience.

Cookies do many different jobs, like providing you with a secure website session, letting you navigate between pages efficiently, remembering your preferences, and generally improving your user experience. They can also help ensure that adverts you see online are more relevant to you and your interests. Cookies in themselves do not identify the individual user, just the computer or mobile device you are using via a randomly generated identifying tag.

Important: Cookies cannot be used to run code (run programs) or to deliver viruses to your computer.

Personally Delivered (“we”) use cookies and similar technologies on each website that we operate.  The technologies that we use include JavaScript tags, pixels, local storage, and web beacons, though for simplicity in this Notice we use the generic term “cookies” to mean all and any of them.

Where we store and process data

Information collected through cookies, like IP addresses and unique visitor identifiers, may be stored and processed in your local region or transferred to other regional data centers worldwide. Typically, the primary storage location is in the visitor’s local region or in the United States, often with a backup to a data center in another region. The storage location(s) are chosen to operate efficiently, to improve performance, and to create backups to protect the data in the event of the website not working.

Where our vendors or third parties offer local market options, these will take precedence over options involving data transfer to the United States or other regional centers. When we, or third parties, engage in such transfers, a variety of legal mechanisms are used, including contracts such as the standard contractual clauses published by the European Commission under Commission Implementing Decision 2021/914, to help protect your rights and enable these protections to travel with your data.

By consenting to the categories of cookies detailed in this policy, you are providing consent for your data to be stored, processed, and transferred outside your local region as described.
