Cookie Policy
This Cookie Policy explains how RedSift Limited (“Red Sift”, “we”, “us” or “our”) uses cookies and other similar technologies on our websites that link to this Cookie Policy and our proprietary cloud-based software-as-a-service platform (together, the “Sites”), as well as in our emails.
Please refer to our Privacy Policy for more information on our privacy practices.
Managing your preferences.
Before we dive into the details – if you are just looking to manage your preferences on our Sites relating to cookies and similar technologies (including opting-out), you can do so at any time through our: Cookie Declaration
If you do not accept our cookies, you may experience some inconvenience in your use of our Sites. For example, we may not be able to recognise your device and you may need to log in every time you visit our Sites.
If you want to find out more about cookies and similar technologies on our Sites and emails, please keep reading.
What types of technologies does Red Sift use?
We may use any or all of the following “technologies” on our Sites and in our emails:
Cookies: a cookie is a very small text file that may be placed on your browser or in the storage on your device. There are two types: “session cookies” and “persistent cookies”:
- Session cookies are cookies that disappear from your device or browser when you close your browser.
- Persistent cookies stay on your device even after you close your browser.
Please note that both Red Sift and third-party service providers may set cookies on via our Sites – these ‘third party cookies’ are set by domains other than those we control and may recognise your device across different websites.
Pixel tags:
- A pixel tag is a single pixel, transparent GIF image with a unique identifier that can recognise certain types of data on your device (similar to how cookies do). They are used to operate and improve the Sites and our email practices, including to help deliver cookies, count visits and understand usage and email campaign effectiveness.
- For example, we may put pixel tags on emails to understand how you interact with that email – for example, whether you opened the email, whether you forwarded it, whether you clicked on a link in the email that directed you to our Sites etc – these pixels may collect the time, location and operating system of the device you use to read the email.
Other similar technologies:
We may also use other tracking technologies or techniques, such as mobile advertising IDs and tags, HTML5 local storage / local shared objects (which store relevant data locally on your device), for similar purposes as described in this Cookie Policy.
So, when we refer to cookies and “similar technologies” in this Cookie Policy, such reference includes reference to the pixel tags discussed above, HTML5 local storage / local shared objects and other equivalent tracking technologies and techniques.
For what reasons do we use cookies and similar technologies?
The purposes for which we use technologies may fall into one of the following categories:
- Necessary: these technologies are essential in order to enable our Sites to provide the function you have requested, such as by helping to ensure that the content of a page loads quickly and effectively.
- Preferences: these technologies allow us to provide enhanced personalisation and functionality, such as tailoring content to you, remembering your choices and preferences on the Sites (e.g. language, text size, etc.) or remembering search parameters.
- Statistics: these technologies collect information on how users interact with our Sites and enable us to improve how it operates and our business more widely. In particular, for more details about how Google uses data in the context of Google Analytics, please see here: www.google.com/policies/privacy/partners/
- Marketing: these technologies collect information about your browsing habits in order to provide advertising which is more relevant to you and your interests – for example, they remember the websites you have visited and share that information with other parties such as advertising technology service providers.
A full list of the technologies we use can be found in the section titled ‘Details of Cookies and Similar Technologies’, below. Also, to learn more about advertising cookies and your choices more widely, you can go to the Network Advertising Initiative, the Digital Advertising Alliance’s Consumer Choice, or if you are in Europe, Your Online Choices.
How can you manage your consent?
You can control or limit how cookies and similar technologies are used by taking the following steps:
- Managing your preferences on our Sites (including by opting-out) at any time by using our: Cookie Declaration
- Pixel tags in emails can typically be blocked by default by configuring your preferences in your email client to block external images or setting it to show “plain text only” emails.
