Information on cookies

We group our cookies into the below categories.

​​

​​

Operating our Sites

 

Some cookies are essential for the operation of our Sites. This includes cookies for the following purposes:

Performance – we use these cookies to monitor Site performance. This allows us to provide a high-quality experience by quickly identifying and fixing any issues that arise. For example, we might use performance cookies to track error messages and to determine improvements to our Sites.

Functionality – we use functionality cookies to allow us to remember your preferences. For example, we use functionality cookies to provide you with enhanced services, such as allowing you to watch a video online or comment on a blog.

 

Analytics – we use cookies to help us understand our audience and the success of advertising campaigns. For example, we count article views to present ‘Most Read’ content. We also use analytics cookies to keep track of how many advertising impressions have been served for a campaign and to manage the frequency at which you see the same adverts.

 

Fraud prevention – we use cookies to monitor and prevent suspicious activity and fraudulent traffic.

​​

Advertising

 

We use cookies to serve you with advertisements that we believe are relevant to you and your interests. You may see these advertisements on our Sites and on other sites that you visit. For example, if you read a number of articles on country XYZ, you may see an advertisement for a  company in XYZ as we have inferred that you are interested in this topic. You may also see advertisements for our products and services on other websites if you have previously visited our Sites.  

 

For our Sites that offer behaviourally or demographically targeted advertising, you will have the opportunity to turn this off in your account. Please note, if you turn this off you will still see the same number of advertisements, but they may be less relevant to you. You may continue to see “contextual” advertisements that are not targeted based on your personal information – for example, a motoring advertisement presented in a motoring article.

​​

​​

Third party cookies on our Sites

​​

We also use third party cookies on our Sites that fall into the categories above (“third party cookies”) for the following reasons:

  • to help us monitor traffic on our Sites (like many companies, we use Google Analytics to do this);

  • to identify fraudulent or non-human traffic;

  • to assist with market research;

  • to improve Site functionality;

  • to monitor compliance with our terms and conditions and copyright policy.

These third party cookies are used within programmatic for measurement and attribution, and management of frequency. They may also be used for personalization of advertisements based on data you have shared with third parties, to the extent that you have consented to this.

​​

​​

Use of pixels in emails

​​

Our emails often contain a single, campaign-unique “web beacon pixel” to tell us whether, and how many times, our emails are opened and verify any clicks through to links or advertisements within the email. We use this information for purposes including:

 

-Determining which of our emails are more interesting to users;

-Determining users’ activity and engagement with our products and services;

-Informing our advertisers (in aggregate) how many users have clicked on their advertisements.

 

The pixel will be deleted when you delete the email.

If you would like to: access, correct, amend or delete any personal information we have about you, you are invited to contact us at admin@sphcholdings.com. ​
