SUMMARY

When you visit or interact with our sites, services, applications, tools or messaging, we or our authorised service providers may use cookies for storing information to help provide you with a better, faster, and safer experience, and for advertising purposes. This page is designed to help you understand more about these technologies and our use of them on our sites and in our services, applications, and tools. Below is a summary of a few key things you should know about our use of such technologies.

WHAT ARE COOKIES?

A cookie is a text-only string of information that a website stores to the cookie file of the browser on your computer's hard disk so that the website may recognize and remember certain information about you ,when you visit again. This can include which pages you have visited, choices you have made from menus, any specific information you have entered into forms and the time and date of your visit.

TYPES OF COOKIES

TPL uses two types of cookies, persistent and session.

• Session cookies: these are temporary cookies that expire at the end of a browser session; that is, when you leave the site. Session cookies allow the website to recognize you as you navigate between pages during a single browser session and allow you to use the website most efficiently. For example, session cookies enable a website to remember that a user has placed items in our online shopping cart.
• Persistent cookies: in contrast to session cookies, persistent cookies are stored on your equipment between browsing sessions until expiry or deletion. They therefore enable the website to 'recognize' you on your return, remember your preferences, and tailor services to you.

In addition to session cookies and persistent cookies, there may be other cookies which are set by the website which you have chosen to visit, such as this website, in order to provide us or third parties with information.

OUR USE OF COOKIES

We currently use, and may use in the future, the following types of cookies on this website.

We use session cookies to:

• help us maintain security and verify your details whilst you use the website as you navigate from page to page, which enables you to avoid having to re-enter your details each time you enter a new page

We use persistent cookies to:

• help us recognise you as a unique user when you return to our website so that you do not have to input your details multiple times as you move between our pages or services
• remember how you have customised your use of this site, such as your preferred currency and time zone
• collect and compile anonymous, aggregated information for statistical and evaluation purposes to help us understand how users use the website and help us improve the structure of our website
• send you periodic newsletters about your chosen services
• provide you with advertising more relevant to your interests and your online behaviour through the use of cookies when you visit our website(s)

In addition to cookies that send information to us, we will also use cookies that collect information, and send it to third parties. An example of this is Google Analytics. We use Google Analytics to help gather and compile information such as the number of visitors to the site, where visitors are coming to the site from and the sites that they visit. Visit Google's site for an overview of privacy at Google and information on how to opt out of the Google Analytics cookie. Wherever such cookies are set , the operators of these websites will use cookies in accordance with their own cookies policy, which may differ from ours.
