Information about Our Use of Cookies

Our website uses cookies to distinguish you from other users of our website. This helps us to provide you with a good experience when you browse our website and also allows us to improve our website.  Privacy laws in the European Economic Area (EEA), including the General Data Protection Regulation, or GDPR, require websites to obtain consent using or storing some cookies (or similar technologies) on your computers or mobile devices.  By indicating your consent to the use of cookies, you agree that we can place cookies and other similar technology on your device, including a mobile device.

What is a Cookie?

A cookie is a small file of letters and numbers that we store on your browser or the hard drive of your computer, and is downloaded to your computer or mobile device when you visit our website.

Key Concepts

  • First and third-party cookies: whether a cookie is ‘first’ or ‘third’ party refers to the domain placing the cookie. First-party cookies are those set by a website that is being visited by the user at the time (e.g. cookies placed by www.accendotechnologies.com).

  • Third-party cookies: are cookies that are set by a domain other than that of the website being visited by the user. If a user visits a website and another entity sets a cookie through that website this would be a third-party cookie.

  • Persistent cookies: these cookies remain on a user’s device for the period of time specified in the cookie. They are activated each time that the user visits the website that created that particular cookie.

  • Session cookies: these cookies allow website operators to link the actions of a user during a browser session. A browser session starts when a user opens the browser window and finishes when they close the browser window. Session cookies are created temporarily. Once you close the browser, all session cookies are deleted.
