How we use cookies
A cookie is a very small piece of data which lets a website remember you and your actions, once youāve given it permission to do so.
First party cookies are created, stored and used only by the website youāre visiting directly. They allow site owners to collect customer analytics data, remember language settings, and carry out other useful functions that help provide a good user experience. GA4 uses these first party cookies to track data anonymously and remain compliant with regulations like GDPR. They are not shared with other parties or websites.
Third party cookies are generated and placed on the userās device by a website other than the one the user is visiting. Theyāre created when a user visits a website that includes elements from other sites ā for example, if thereās an embedded YouTube video on a website and itās watched by the user, the YouTube server will set a cookie on the userās device which could be used to suggest similar videos when they visit YouTube in the future.
We currently do not use any third party cookies for advertising, retargeting or tracking purposes. The third party cookies we do use are either for necessary or functional purposes.
Links to other websites
Our website may contain links to other websites of interest. However, once you have used these links to leave our site, you should note that we do not have any control over that other website. Therefore, we cannot be responsible for the protection and privacy of any information which you provide whilst visiting such sites and such sites are not governed by this privacy statement. You should exercise caution and look at the privacy statement applicable to the website in question.
Controlling your personal information
If you wish to access, correct, update, or request deletion of your personal information, you can do so at any time by emailing hello@wearedpp.com
If we have collected and processed your personal information with your consent, then you can withdraw your consent at any time. Withdrawing your consent will not affect the lawfulness of any processing we conducted prior to your withdrawal, nor will it affect the processing of your personal information conducted in reliance on lawful processing grounds other than consent.
If you have previously agreed to us using your personal information for direct marketing purposes, you may change your mind at any time either by opting out from the link included in the email sent to you, or by contacting us directly.
We will not sell, distribute or lease your personal information to third parties unless we have your permission or are required by law to do so.
