The policy may be amended from time to time. When it is amended, we will let you know by posting the revised policy on this page with a new “Last Updated” date. You may control the types of cookies which the Sites place on your device through Manage Preferences.

What are Cookies and similar technologies?

Cookies are text files containing small amounts of information downloaded to your computer or device when you visit a website. Cookies are then sent back to the originating site on each subsequent visit, or to another site that recognizes that cookie. Cookies are useful because they allow a site to recognize a user’s device.

Cookies do a lot of different jobs, like letting you navigate between pages efficiently, remembering your preferences, and they generally improve the user experience. They can also help to ensure that on websites featuring advertisements, the advertisements you see online are more relevant to you and your interests. Please note that the Sites do not contain advertisements or use advertising Cookies.

Some of the Cookies we use are for web analytics and intelligence about our Sites. They help us learn which areas of our Sites are useful and which areas need improvement. For this purpose, we may also use web beacons or other similar technologies in marketing email messages or our newsletters in order to determine whether messages have been opened and links clicked on. Unlike Cookies, web beacons do not place information on your device, but may work in conjunction with Cookies to record site activity.

You can choose whether to accept the use of Cookies or restrict the types of cookies which the Sites place on your device through Manage Preferences. However, if you disable Cookies and similar technologies, your experience on the Sites may be diminished and some features may not work as intended.

You can find more information about Cookies and similar technologies at: www.allaboutcookies.org and www.youronlinechoices.eu.

 

Who sets Cookies?

Cookies may be set by our Sites or by another site prior to or during your visit to our Sites. These are known as ‘first party’ and ‘third party’ Cookies.

First party Cookies belong to the website domain that appears in the browser address bar.

Third-party Cookies belong to website domains different from the one shown in the address bar. Certain of our service providers who provide the technology platforms which support elements of the Services (for example, video clips) may also set Cookies on your device during a visit to one of our Sites.

 

How long do Cookies last?

Cookies can be placed either for an individual "session" or on a "persistent" basis.

"Session Cookies” are temporary and will expire at the end of a browser session; that is, when you leave a website. Session Cookies allow a website to recognize you and carry information as you navigate between pages during a single browser session and allow you to use the website efficiently.

"Persistent Cookies" remain in the file of your browser even after you leave a website and after the browser is closed. These Cookies remain valid until their set expiry date (unless deleted by the user before the expiry date). These Cookies allow a website to collect and analyze (on an anonymous basis) traffic and use of the website, monitor the system and improve operating performance. For example, they enable a website to recognize you on your return, remember your preferences and provide tailored services to you.

Subject to applicable legal restrictions, we may use information collected from our Cookies to identify user behavior and to serve content and information on products and services based on your profile.

However, we will not be able to associate this information with your name, unless you have previously provided your contact information to us and are opening or clicking on a link in an email which you have received from us, or, if you visit the Private Banking or Investment Management portions of our website, you later provide your contact information to us (see information below regarding the Munchkin cookie). These Cookies cannot track your browsing activity on other websites.
