This Cookies Policy sets out the basis on which TDA Group, use cookies and similar technologies on or in relation to our websites.

‘Essential cookies’ are automatically placed on your computer or device when you access our website(s) or take certain actions on our website(s). ‘Non-essential cookies’ and other technologies are only placed on your computer or device if you have consented to us doing so.

Web browser cookies

a) What is a Cookie?

A cookie is a small amount of data, a simple text file, which often includes a unique identifier that is sent to your computer, tablet or mobile phone (all referred to here as a “device”), web browser from a website’s computer and is stored on your device’s hard drive. A cookie is created when a user visits a website using a programme called a browser (for example Internet Explorer, Firefox or Safari). Each website can send its own cookie to your web browser if your browser’s preferences allow it. Many websites do this whenever a user visits their website in order to track online traffic flows. Similar technologies are also often used within emails to understand whether the email has been read or if any links have been clicked. If you continue without changing your settings, we will assume that you are happy to receive all cookies on any TDA Group websites.

A cookie isn’t a program itself and doesn’t actively do anything on a user’s computer. A cookie cannot be used to identify a user personally but they do contribute to improving a user’s experience of a website.

A cookie simply allows the website to read the contents of the cookie text file. The text file itself simply contains a unique identifier code; the site name and some digits and numbers.

b) Why are Cookies used?

Most websites will use cookies in order to improve the user experience by enabling the website to ‘remember’ the user, either for the duration of the visit or for repeat visits.

Cookies do lots of different jobs, such as:

  • remembering what items a user may have added to a shopping basket or an itinerary as the user moves between pages on a website
  • saving a user’s preferences to allow them to customise a website
  • measuring what users do on a website to ascertain which parts of a website are popular, how long they spend on a website, how often users return, where they come from etc

Information supplied by cookies can help us to understand the profile of our visitors and help us to provide you with a better user experience. TDA Group uses this type of information to help improve the services it provides to its users.


c) What Cookies are used by us?
Cookies are set by TDA Group website(s) (first party cookies) but may also be set by other websites (e.g. You Tube) that run content on the website’s pages (third party cookies).

Cookies can be set to remember a visitor for the duration of their visit (session cookies) or to remember a visitor for repeat visits (persistent cookies).

Appendix A lists the typical Cookies that can be used by TDA Group websites.
