How do we use cookies?

Two types of cookies are used on this website: session cookies and persistent cookies.

Moneyfarm also uses cookies to track advertising campaigns from banner advertisements and opt-in emails. Moneyfarm may use third-party providers to help us determine which of our advertisements are most likely to be of interest to you. These providers may use online behavioural information, such as how you navigate the internet, to provide relevant advertisements to you.

Moneyfarm may also allow some of these companies to use web pixels. Web pixels may be used to collect and store information about visits to our website, such as which pages you viewed and how long you spent on the website, as well as the specific advertisement that you clicked to visit our site. No personally identifiable information is stored on these cookies or web pixels. The information reported to Moneyfarm is aggregated and anonymous. Moneyfarm uses this information to understand, for example, the effectiveness of our advertising and marketing

Overall, cookies help Moneyfarm provide you with a better website, by enabling us to monitor which pages you find useful and which you do not.  A cookie in no way gives Moneyfarm access to or control over your computer.
