Cookies and Other Technologies
We collect information from your visits to our Web sites and Apps to help us gather statistics about usage and effectiveness, personalise your experience, and tailor our interactions with you. We do so through the use of various technologies, including scripts, tags, Local Shared Objects (Flash cookies), Local Storage (HTML5) beacons, and “cookies”. A cookie is a piece of data that a Web site can send to your browser, which may then be stored on your computer as a tag that identifies your computer. Cookies are often used to measure Web site usage (such as number of visitors and duration of visit) and effectiveness (such as topics visitors are most interested in) and to allow for ease of navigation or use. As such, they are not associated with any personal information. They are also used at times to personalise a known visitor’s experience to a Web site by being associated with profile information or user preferences.
Over time this information provides valuable insight to help improve the user experience. Cookies are typically categorised as “session” cookies or “persistent” cookies. Session cookies help you navigate through the Web site efficiently, keeping track of your progression from page to page so that you are not asked for information you have already provided during the current visit. Session cookies are stored in temporary memory and erased when the web browser is closed. Persistent cookies store user preferences for current and successive visits. They are written on your device’s hard disk, and are still valid when you restart your browser. You can usually set your privacy preferences regarding cookies and similar technologies though your web browser. Look under “Tools” (or similar heading) in your browser for information about controlling cookies. You can set your browser in most instances to notify you before you receive a cookie, giving you the chance to decide whether to accept it or not. You can also usually set your browser to turn off cookies. If you block, turn off or otherwise reject our cookies, some Web pages may not display or function properly. Some Sure Care UK Ltd Web sites and Apps may also use Web beacon or other technologies to tailor those sites to provide a better customer experience.
These technologies may be in use on a number of pages across Sure Care UK Ltd’s Web sites. When a visitor accesses these pages, a non-identifiable notice of that visit is generated which may be processed by us or by our suppliers. These Web beacons usually work in conjunction with cookies. If you don’t want your cookie information to be associated with your visits to these pages or use of these products, you can set your browser to turn off cookies. If you turn off cookies, Web beacon and other technologies will still detect visits to these pages; however, they will not be associated with information otherwise stored in cookies. We use Local Shared Objects, such as Flash cookies, and Local Storage, such as HTML5, to store content information and preferences. Third parties with whom we partner to provide certain features on our web site or to display Sure Care UK advertising on others’ web sites based upon your web browsing activity also use Flash cookies or HTML5 to collect and store information. Various browsers may offer their own management tools for removing HTML5. To manage Flash cookies, please visit http://www.macromedia.com/support/documentation/en/flashplayer/help/settings_manager07.html We may also include Web beacons in marketing e-mail messages or our newsletters in order to determine whether messages have been opened and links contained within clicked on. Some of our business partners set Web beacons and cookies on our site. In addition third-party social media buttons may log certain information such as your IP address, browser type and language, access time, and referring Web site addresses, and, if you are logged in to those social media sites, they may also link such collected information with your profile information on that site. We do not control these third party tracking technologies.

Sure Care UK Ltd does not deliver third party online advertisements on our Web sites. We may advertise our products and services on other Web sites. Please familiarise yourself with those Web sites privacy policies to understand their practices relating to advertising, including what type of information they may collect about your Internet usage. We may engage third parties to manage some of our advertising on other sites. These third parties may use cookies and Web beacons to collect information (such as your IP address) about your activities on Sure Care UK Ltd’s and others’ Web sites to provide you targeted Sure Care UK Ltd advertisements based upon your interests. Links to Non-Sure Care UK Ltd Web Sites and Third Party Applications We may provide links or embed third-party applications that allow you to login, post content or join communities from our Web sites (for example Facebook or Twitter).
