About cookies

  • A cookie is a file containing an identifier (a string of letters and numbers) that is sent by a web server to a web browser and is stored by the browser. The identifier is then sent back to the server each time the browser requests a page from the server.
  • Cookies may be either "persistent" cookies or "session" cookies: a persistent cookie will be stored by a web browser and will remain valid until its set expiry date, unless deleted by the user before the expiry date; a session cookie, on the other hand, will expire at the end of the user session, when the web browser is closed.
  • Cookies do not typically contain any information that personally identifies a user, but personal information that we store about you may be linked to the information stored in and obtained from cookies.
  • Cookies can be used by web servers to identify and track users as they navigate different pages on a website and identify users returning to a website.

Our cookies

  • We use both session and persistent cookies on our website.
  • The names of the cookies that we use on our website, and the purposes for which they are used, are set out below:
    • We use 'PHPSESSID' to recognise a device when a user visits our website. This enables to maintain the application state such as whether you are signed in or not.
    • We use 'REMEMBERME' to remember a user who has chosen to persist their session.
    • We use 'eoCookieConsent' to recognise your cookie preferences.
    • We use 'eoCoupon' to remember if you've used a promotion or discount.
    • We use 'eoReferredByUserReferralLinkId' to recognise when a user is referred to our website by another user.
    • We use 'eoReferredByAffiliateLinkId' to recognise when a user is referred to our website by an affiliate.
    • We use 'eoExportComplete' to recognise when a long-running export of your data has finished downloading.
    • We use cookies prefixed '_vwo' to show relevant copy to you on our marketing pages only. The only information that VWO collects about a cookie is a visitor ID that does not contain any personal data. This ID helps distinguish one visitor from another, but no individual or consumer can be tracked or identified by these.
