YOUMANAGE HR LIMITED – COOKIE POLICY

Information about our use of cookies 

We operate two websites: www.youmanage.co.uk and www.youmanagehr.com.

Our websites use cookies to distinguish you from other users of our websites.  This helps us to provide you with a good experience when you browse our websites and also allows us to improve our websites.

A cookie is a small file of letters and numbers that we store on your browser or the hard drive of your computer.  Cookies contain information that is transferred to your computer’s hard drive.

Although the specific cookies which we use on our two websites differ, we use the following types of cookies:

  • Strictly necessary cookies. These are cookies that are required for the operation of our websites.  They include, for example, cookies that enable you to log into secure areas of our websites.
  • Analytical/performance cookies. These cookies allow us to recognise and count the number of visitors and to see how visitors move around our websites when they are using them.  This helps us to improve the way our websites work, for example, by ensuring that users are finding what they are looking for easily.
  • Functionality cookies. These cookies are used to recognise you when you return to our websites.  This enables us to personalise our content for you, greet you by name and remember your preferences.
  • Targeting cookies. These cookies record your visit to our websites, the pages you have visited and the links you have followed.  We will use this information to make our websites and the advertising displayed on it more relevant to your interests.  We may also share this information with third parties for this purpose.

These cookies can in turn be categories either as first party cookies or third-party cookies.  First party cookies are cookies that are set by our websites and can only be read by our websites.  They are commonly used for the functionality of our websites.  Third party cookies are set by third parties which can be tracking or marketing companies (e.g. advertising networks).  These cookies get re-read during a visit on other websites if they do business with these companies as well. Retargeting is good example of an application.

By using our websites, you acknowledge that we will place these types of cookies on your device.  You can find more information about the individual cookies we use and the purposes for which we use them below.
