Introduction This Cookie Policy explains how attrack’d ("we", "us" or "our") uses cookies and similar tracking technologies on our website attrackd.co.uk (the "Site"). It explains what cookies are, why we use them, the types we use, how you can manage them, and where to find more information.

What are cookies? Cookies are small text files placed on your device (computer, tablet, smartphone) when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites work more efficiently and to provide information to the website owner. Similar technologies include web beacons, pixels and local storage; this policy refers to all of these as "cookies".

Personalisation and advertising: to deliver content and adverts that are more relevant to you and to measure the effectiveness of advertising campaigns.

Third-party cookies Some cookies on the Site are set by third parties (for example analytics providers, advertising networks, social media platforms). We do not control those third-party cookies and their use is governed by the third parties’ own cookie notices and privacy policies. Examples may include analytics providers and social media widgets.
