What is a cookie?

A cookie is a small piece of data that a website stores on your device when you visit. It typically contains information about the website, a unique identifier to recognize your web browser on subsequent visits, additional data serving the cookie’s purpose, and its lifespan.

Cookies are used to enable certain features (e.g., logging in), track site usage (e.g., analytics), store your user settings (e.g., timezone, notification preferences), and personalize your content (e.g., advertising, language).

For general guidance on cookies, including how to control and manage them, visit the UK Information Commissioner’s Office, www.aboutcookies.org, or www.allaboutcookies.org.

Do we use cookies?

Yes, we do use cookies for various purposes, including:

• Remembering that you are signed into your account
• Identifying web browsers associated with your current user session
• Processing payments with our payment provider
• Ensuring information is accurate and up to date
• Gaining a better understanding of how visitors use our website

Who sets cookies when I use Halls Hosting?

Cookies can be classified into two categories:

First-party

These cookies are set by us to ensure key functionalities work properly. They are considered strictly necessary for the correct use of our website and services, so we do not offer an opt-out mechanism for them.

Third-party

These cookies are set by our trusted third-party partners. They are either necessary to help us improve our service, assist in delivering the service you expect (such as payment processing), or associate your session with one of our analytics partners to help us understand how you use our services. For example, Google Analytics tracks your use of our website to provide us with analysis reports, which help us improve our site. Cookies set by other sites and companies (i.e., third parties) can also be used to track you on other websites that use the same third-party service.

 

How does Halls Hosting use cookies?

We use cookies only when we believe they positively impact the overall user experience. You have the right to opt out of any non-essential cookie use, as detailed later in this policy. Please note that third parties may change the names of their cookies or add/remove cookies over time. While we will review the lists periodically, the most accurate and up-to-date third-party cookie information can always be found in each third party’s respective cookie policy.

How can I change my cookie settings, including opting out?

You can also configure your browser to refuse cookies from our website. Most browsers accept cookies by default, but you can update these settings to either block cookies entirely or notify you when a website attempts to set or update a cookie. If you use multiple devices to browse, you may need to update your settings on each device individually.

 

While some cookies can be blocked with minimal impact on your website experience, blocking all cookies may prevent access to certain features and content on the site.
