This page
explains what cookies are, how we use them on the websites of the Euromoney
Institutional Investor PLC group and your options for controlling them.
Please note:
Not all
the cookies listed here will necessarily be used on each website
We will
display our cookie prompt once when you visit each of our sites
If you
send us a request in relation to activity logging on our websites as explained
in the table below, this will apply to your use of all our sites so you only
need to make one request.
What are
cookies?
Cookies
are pieces of information which include a unique reference code that a website
transfers to your device to store and sometimes track information about you. A
number of cookies we use last only for the duration of your web session
(session cookies) and expire when you close your browser. Other cookies are
used, for example, to remember you when you return to the site and will last
for longer (persistent cookies). Cookies cannot be used to run programs or
deliver viruses to your computer. They are uniquely assigned to your device and
are sent back to the originating website on each subsequent visit (if they last
longer than a web session) or to another website that recognises that cookie.
Some of
the cookies used by our sites are set by us, and some are set by third parties
who are delivering services (such as interest based advertising and web
analytics) on our behalf.
What do
we use cookies for?
Some
cookies are essential to enable you to move around the website and use its
features, such as accessing secure areas of the website or areas with paid-for
content. Without these cookies, services you have asked for, like shopping
baskets, cannot be provided. Because such cookies are essential for using a
site, these cookies cannot be turned off without severely affecting your use of
the website.
Other cookies perform various functions, as the table below explains, together
with your options for controlling them.
Some
cookies may also be controlled by using your web browser settings. Most web
browsers automatically accept cookies but, if you prefer, you can change your
browser to prevent that or to notify you each time a cookie is set.
You can
also learn more about cookies in general by visiting www.allaboutcookies.org which
includes additional useful information on cookies and how to block cookies
using different types of browser.
For more
general information about online behavioural (interest based) advertising and
how it uses cookies, you may wish to visit www.youronlinechoices.com.
