Our Cookie Policy.
Our Privacy Policy explains our principles when it comes to the collection, processing and storage of your information. This policy specifically explains how we, our partners and users of our services use cookies — and the options you have to control them.
What is a cookie?
A cookie is a small file that can be placed on your computer or device when your browser loads a website. Cookies are used to perform essential functions — such as logging in to an account — and to store information throughout your visit.
They are mostly used to "remember" you and your chosen preferences, either for a single visit (through a "session cookie") or across multiple repeat visits (using a "persistent cookie"). They ensure a fast, consistent and efficient experience for visitors. Cookies may be set by the site you are visiting (known as "first-party cookies"), or by third parties, such as those who serve content or provide advertising or analytics services on the website ("third-party cookies").
Types of cookie.
- First-party cookies — cookies that are set by us when you use our website, or a website built by us, that require a specific function.
- Third-party cookies — cookies that are set by an organisation other than us when you use our website or a website built by us. Some websites built by us may also contain content from other websites, which may in turn set their own cookies.
How we use cookies.
We use cookies for a number of different purposes, all of which are designed to improve your overall experience on our websites. Some cookies are necessary for technical reasons, such as logging in or registering to a website; some enable a personalised experience for both visitors and members; and some support advertisements from third-party networks.
In most cases, the cookies we use are for registered members of a website — so the website remembers you for ease of access and an improved user experience. To learn more about the choices you have in controlling your cookies, please see How to manage your cookies below.
Where we place cookies.
We use cookies in a number of different locations across our websites. These include:
- Personalised user dashboards.
- On websites we host.
- On websites where we use plugins to perform a required function.
- In emails we may send.
- On eCommerce websites.
- Within large multi-step contact forms.
Cookies that are used on this website.
We use two types of cookie on novus.design:
- Strictly necessary — cookies that are essential to provide you with services you have requested; because of their importance they cannot be switched off through the 'Cookie Settings' link. If you set your browser to block these cookies, the functions related to them will cease to work — in the case of our cookie pop-up, we won't be able to save your preferences about cookies.
- Advertising & analytics — cookies that are used to collect information about your visit to our website, including the content you have viewed, the links you have followed, and information about your browser, device and IP address. Details of each are listed below.
