Cookies
  • We do monitor website visitor traffic through Google Analytics. For detailed information about Cookies please visit the ICC Cookie Guide or  allaboutcookies.org.
     

  • In summary there are four types of Cookie. The first are ‘Essential Cookies’, these are used in transactional websites and their role is to remember your selections as you move through the purchase process. The second are ‘Performance Cookies’, which, as mentioned above, are used to monitor the site’s usage and improve how the site works. Category three Cookies, called ‘Functional Cookies’ remember choices you make, such as username, language, region etc. They are designed to give you a more personalised experience, e.g. local weather or traffic news. The information these Cookies collect may be anonymous but cannot track your browsing activity on other websites. The final category of Cookies are those that track and deliver relevant adverts to you based on your browsing activity and interaction with those brands. These category four Cookies are called 'Targeting (or Advertising) Cookies'.
     

  • Of the four categories of Cookies outlined by the ICC, Design by Pie’s website uses only categories one and two - Essential and Performance Cookies. These do not capture information that identifies a visitor but are used solely to provide us with information about the performance of the website, e.g. pageviews, page errors. The information is aggregated and therefore anonymous.
