We use cookies and tags on our website, which amongst other things, help us to improve your experience of our website and to ensure that it performs as you expect it to. This is very common with websites, as they help us not only personalise your experience, but also allow the website to function. Cookies and tags are text files containing small amounts of information, which are downloaded to your computer or mobile device by websites that you visit. They can improve your experience of using a website, for example, by remembering your preference settings and tracking your use of a website so that it can be improved to meet your needs. Websites that operate within the EU must get consent to send cookies and tags to your computer or mobile device unless the cookies or tags are strictly necessary to provide services to you. You can set your cookie and tag preferences when you arrive at our website. Unless the cookie is a strictly necessary cookie, you can withdraw your consent to our cookies at any time even if you have previously consented. The table below explains what cookies and tags we use on our website, why we use them and whether they are strictly necessary or another type of cookie/tag e.g. “functionality” or “performance” cookies/tags. We also state in the table whether a cookie/tag is a “persistent” or “session” cookie. The difference is that:

• Persistent cookies/tags remain on your device between browsing sessions. They are activated each time you visit the website that created that particular cookie/tag. For example, where a “persistent cookie/tag” is used on a website to remember your log-in details, you will not need to enter those details each time you visit that website.
• Session cookies/tags allow website operators to link the actions of a user during a browser session. A browser session starts when you open the browser window and finishes when you close the browser window. Session cookies/tags are created temporarily. Once you close the browser, all session cookies/tags are deleted.

Some of the cookies/tags listed below are those set by our own website when you visit – tonikent.co.uk
