Cookie Policy
We (People's Partnership Ltd) use cookies on our websites to help give you the best experience we can. If you'd like to remove or refuse cookies, you can learn how to below – see ‘What to do about unwanted cookies or adverts’. However, this may mean our website won’t work in the way you'd expect.
Please note
What are cookies?
Cookies are small text files that are placed on your device (such as a computer or mobile phone) when you browse websites. Almost all websites use them. They help us to distinguish you from other visitors. They also help us to customise our web pages by remembering your preferences, such as font size.
When you return to our websites, we use the information in the cookie to recognise your last session. This improves the quality of your experience on our websites.
Why do we use cookies?
We use cookies to make our websites work as you’d expect. They also help us to:- continually improve our websites
- improve speed and security of our websites
- remember your search settings during and between visits
- let you share pages with social networks like Facebook and add comments to our site
- make our marketing more efficient so you should only see advertising or promotions that are relevant to you, eg via Google or Facebook.
- collect any personally identifiable or sensitive information
- send personally identifiable data to third parties.

Deleting cookies. Some web browsers allow you to delete cookies. If your browser allows this, you’ll be able to change your settings so that whenever you close your browser, it will delete any cookies that have been put on during that session of browsing.
Refusing cookies. Just remember that if you change your browser settings to refuse all cookies – in other words, websites won’t be able to put them on your device at all – you won’t be able to access your Online Account with us. If you’re worried about ‘spyware’, then rather than refusing all cookies, you may find you can use anti-spyware software to achieve the same goal by automatically deleting cookies it thinks are invasive.
Getting a warning about cookies. You can change your browser settings to warn you before cookies are used (and get the option of using them or not). You can do this by following the instructions in your browser. These are normally in the Help, Tools, or Edit menus.
Opting out of online adverts. To stop getting online interest-based advertisements from Facebook and other participating companies, visit the European Interactive Digital Advertising Alliance. You’ll need to opt out separately with each browser you use.
