What is a “Cookie”?

A “cookie” is a text file containing small amounts of information which downloads to your personal computer or mobile device when you visit a website. Cookies are useful because they allow a website to recognize a user’s device. You can find more information about cookies at: www.allaboutcookies.org and www.youronlinechoices.com. Various types of cookies facilitate you navigate between different pages on a website efficiently, remembering preferences you gave while visiting a website, and improving overall user experience. Others are used to provide you with advertising tailored to your interests or to measure the number of site and page visits.

Session based versus persistent cookies

Some cookies are installed only for the duration of your visit to a website and/or Platform; these are called session-based cookies. They automatically expire when you close your browser. Another type of cookie would remain on your device for a period of time. These are known as persistent cookies. The cookies used on this site are based on the International Chamber of Commerce guide for cookie categories:

  1. Strictly necessary
  2. Performance
  3. Functionality
  4. Targeting

1. Strictly necessary cookies. These cookies enable services you have specifically asked for. For those types of cookies that are strictly necessary, no consent is required.

Accepting these cookies is a condition of using the platform, so if you disable these cookies we cannot guarantee or predict how our platform will perform during your visit.

2. Performance cookies collect information about how you use our Platform e.g., which pages you visit, and if you experience any errors. We use them only to improve our site or measure response rates. All information collected by these cookies is anonymous and does not in any way impact your privacy. We need to use them to maintain our site’s effectiveness and ease of use and to improve how our platform works, understand what interests our users or measure how effective certain features of our platform are.

For example, we use these to provide statistics on how our platform is used. We do not pass this information to anyone. We also use performance cookies to help us improve the platform by measuring any errors that occur or test different designs of our platform.

To this end, some of these cookies are managed for us by a third party.

We sometimes share some of the information with partners to provide a service on our platform. In addition, some of these cookies are managed for us by third parties. In any case, the information shared or collected by third parties is only to be used to provide the service, product, or function and not for any other purpose.

We will only collect functionality cookies based on your selection. If you accept the use of cookies, we will store this information in a cookie named “cookie settings”.

How we collect your consent

When you enter ARRIVAL for the first time, you will see a banner notice – like the one below – requesting your consent to use cookies while using the platform.

 

The Platform will only collect strictly necessary cookies, also including performance and functionality cookies. As these cookies are essential for the optimal functioning of the Platform, you therefore agree to their collection when using the Platform, its services, and by continuing to browse.

Browser settings

Cookies can also be removed from your device using browser settings but there will still be some deterioration in the service you receive (for example you may not be able to access a page you earlier personalised).

Your browser lets you choose whether to accept, not to accept or to be warned before accepting cookies. Settings can be found in the advanced preferences.

If you delete all your cookies and when you use a different device, computer profile or browser you will have to tell us your preferences again.

This policy applies to the domains of the ENTRANCE and RECIPROCITY projects.  However other ENTRANCE and RECIPROCITY partner websites may contain policies which are different from this one. If you visit other ENTRANCE's and RECIPROCITY's partner websites, please check the cookies policy of the site you visit.

We cannot be responsible for the policies and practices of other websites even if you:

  • accessed the third-party website using links from our website, or
  • linked to our website from a third-party website.

We recommend that you check the policy of each linked site you visit and contact the owner or operator of that website if you have any concerns or questions.
