Triptide.london Cookie Policy
We work hard to listen to our customers and members and in return to deliver a smart and engaging website that reflects their needs. One of the ways in which we do this, is through the use of cookies.
Not sure what cookies are or what they do? This page will tell you everything you need to know about cookies, as well as teach you how you to manage them on your computer. Let's start with the most frequently asked question…
What is a cookie?
In short, a cookie is a small text file that is placed on your computer or mobile device to help ensure that you get the best possible experience when you visit a website.
Why does Triptide.london use cookies?
Cookies allow us to improve the website's content, functionality and speed, while their tracking ability also helps us to understand your likes and dislikes, which means we can respond quickly and adapt the site accordingly.
At Triptide.london, we use cookies because it's important to us that the time you spend on our website, is as useful and intuitive as possible.
In fact without cookie placement, a website cannot remember your preferences or registration details for your next visit. For example, by allowing us to place cookies in your web browser, you don't have to remember your username each time you sign in – a cookie helps us to remember that information for you.
Cookies also allow us to highlight what places visitors are also interested in. Once we know that, we can show you who's doing what and where. You never know when you might need some inspirational recommendations..
The important thing to remember about all of this is that whilst some cookies are used to track your use of our website, they cannot be used to identify you personally or tell us who you are.
Here's a snapshot of all of the cookies we use on Triptide.london.co.uk along with a snippet of information about what they do.
