Cookies
When you visit the Phlomis Finance website pages, a small text file called a 'cookie', is downloaded onto your computer. This is called a session cookie. This will only remain on your computer until you close your browser. This cookie is not used to identify you personally in any way. We will use this type of cookie to collect aggregated website statistics that allow us to understand how visitors use the site. All of the information collected will be anonymous and only used to help us improve the website and report to funders on usage.
A persistent cookie will be downloaded when you first visit the site. These remain in your browsers cookie store between sessions.

For example, providing us with your email address so we can contact you, if you have registered as a regular site user or if you have registered for an event so that we can get back to you. We may, from time to time, send you relevant information about Phlomis Finance and its work, although there will be an option for you to opt out of this at the registration stage.
