This policy explains how William Hare Group Reg. Engl. & Wales No. 2616280, and its subsidiaries (also referred to throughout this policy as ‘William Hare’, ‘Hare’, ‘we’, ‘us’, or ‘our’) use cookies on our websites. When you visit our websites, we or a third party service provider may collect technical and navigational information through the use of cookies on our websites (or applications).
Where we rely on affirmed consent, if you continue without disabling our cookies we will assume that you are happy with our use of them as outlined in this Policy and detailed in cookie banners. Our use of cookies complies with Data Protection Law and Regulation and the information detailed herein will ensure you are aware of your privacy rights when using our websites.
Cookies are files containing small amounts of information which are downloaded to your device when you visit a website. Your web browser (like Internet Explorer, Edge, Mozilla Firefox, Google Chrome or Safari) then sends these cookies back to our website [or application] on each subsequent visit.
We and our third-party service providers may use the information we get about you, through the use of cookies, for the following purposes:
We may also combine this web usage data with other information we have collected about you, and we may store this information so we can have a better and more specific understanding of the way people are using our website, and their preferences and interests.
Cookies may be either 'persistent' cookies or 'session' cookies, depending on how long they are used. To stop us setting these cookies you will need to set up your browser to reject all cookies.
Persistent cookies: These cookies stay on your device after you have closed your browser, and allow a website to remember your actions and preferences. They are activated every time you visit the website where the cookie was generated. Sometimes persistent cookies are used by websites to provide targeted advertising based on your browsing history. They are stored by the browser and remain valid until their set expiry date (unless you delete the cookie before its expiry date).
Session cookies: These only last as long as you are on the website, and they are deleted when you close your browser. They help us keep track of things like how a particular device is navigating from page to page. This supports the website’s security or basic functionality.
Many of the cookies we use are session cookies. They help us to ensure that your session is secure, and allow you to stay signed in while you move between pages.
Whether a cookie is a first or third party cookie depends on which website the cookie comes from. First party cookies are set by (or on behalf of) the website you are visiting. All other cookies are third party cookies. We use cookies as set out below.
Most of our cookies don't store personal data or sensitive information, such as your name, address or payment details, they simply hold the 'key' that, once you are signed in, is associated with this information; therefore the information collected is anonymous. We only collect personal identifiable information through cookies with your consent, for example, you will always have to provide your consent by an affirmed action before personal data is processed by a cookie for any reason not included in this Policy.

This is because if you go on to a web page that contains embedded content, for example from YouTube, you may be sent cookies from these websites. We don't control the setting of these cookies, so we suggest you check the third-party websites for more information about their cookies and how to manage them.
