This is the Cookies and Similar Technologies Policy (or “cookie policy”) of toob ltd  (referred herein as “toob”, “we”, “our”, “us”), which forms part of the toob Privacy Policy (toob.co.uk/privacy-policy). It explains how  we use cookies and similar technologies to help provide you with a good experience when you interact with our website, emails and online services. It also provides information about how we use these technologies to  improve our site and services and our marketing activities.

what are Cookies and similar technologies?

Cookies are small files made up of letters and numbers that are stored on your browser or the hard drive of your device if you agree. These can send information back to the website when you visit a page or take an  action, for example to enable the website to recognise your device and remember your preferences or to analyse how users interact with a website.

As well as Cookies, we use similar technologies on our website and online services. Similar technologies include:

• Local storage: also known as web storage, this is where data sets are stored locally on your device or browser, for example to help maintain your usage history and preferences when you use our website. These are usually stored until the user removes them (by clearing data/cache on your browser).
• Pixels and Web beacons: these are small pieces of code, usually image graphics, that live on content like a website or email. Unlike cookies, pixels/web beacons are not stored on your device, instead they create a connection to access information like your IP address to try to ‘match’ visits or track whether you have viewed a webpage or opened an email.
• Device fingerprinting: this is where various bits of information, which could include your device model, operating system, IP address and browser type, are used to try to recognise unique users and then track their activities.

In this policy we use ‘Cookies’ to refer to both Cookies and the similar technologies we have explained above.

what information is used?

The information used by these technologies is often designed to enable individual visitors to be recognised. However, we won’t usually be able to attribute the information to a named individual unless you log in (for  example, you log into your toob account or you arrive on the toob website by clicking a link on social media while you are logged into your social media account).
