It also explains the choices you can make about whether we can put some types of cookies on your computer, tablet or mobile phone.
In this policy, where we say ‘cookies’ it can also mean other software that collects data while you use our websites and mobile apps.
Our pages and some of the emails that Dayinsure may send to you may use cookies, web beacons, pixel tags or action tags or similar technologies.
We may share this data with outside organisations. Some of them may place their own cookies on your device when you visit our website. You can find out more about how we share data, and who we share it with in our Privacy Policy
We do not sell data to external organisations.
Cookies are small files that are sent to your computer, mobile phone or tablet when you visit a website. They stay on your device and are sent back to the website they came from when you visit it again. Cookies collect data and send it to us while you use the site. These are written into mobile apps and web pages that you visit on your device.
What we use cookies for:
All cookies are either ‘session’ cookies or ‘persistent’ cookies.
Session cookies last for the length of your visit to a website. They delete themselves when you close your browser. Session cookies can help with security. For instance, they can keep you signed in as you move around a website.
Persistent cookies stay on your device when you close your browser.
They are used for many jobs. For instance, they can remember your username for websites where you sign in. They can also store your choices for when you go back to a website.
Organisations find them useful to see how people use their websites. They can also be used to tailor the ads and marketing you see on social media, apps and other websites.
Whether a cookie is first, or third party depends on where it comes from.
First party cookies are set by websites you go to.
Third party cookies are set by outside organisations. For instance, you may be on a website that has ‘Like’ and ‘Share’ buttons for social network sites. If you click one, the social network site will put a ‘third party’ cookie on your device. That cookie may then collect data about you and send it to them too. You will need to set your privacy choices on their site, to tell them how they can use your data.
We use our own cookies and others from companies we work with such as social media, search engines, other advertising networks, and our business partners.
We may use four categories of cookie on our websites, based upon the International Chamber of Commerce UK Cookie Guide. These fall under the following categories.

Our use of Functionality Cookies might include:

Targeting/Marketing cookies record your visit to our website, including the web pages you have visited and the links you have followed. These cookies collect information about your browsing habits.

This information may be used to trigger direct communications with you, for example, to send you automated emails tailored to your interests, unless you have opted out of receiving marketing materials from us.

If more than one person uses your device, the choices set up by other people will apply to you as well unless you change them. For example, if you share a computer with your family, you may see ads based on sites they have visited as well as sites you have visited.
Some of our cookies collect data for more than one use. We will only use these cookies for their essential purposes unless you have given your consent to any other uses they have.
Turning off one or more types of cookies will not delete any that have been downloaded in the past. We may still use data we collected up to that point but will stop collecting new data.
