Hive Learning Cookie Policy

1.Introduction

This cookie policy explains how Hive Learning Limited, Hive Learning Inc. and our affiliates entities use cookies and similar technologies to recognise you when you visit our website (www.hivelearning.com). It explains what these technologies are and why we use them, as well as your rights to control our use of them.

Our website uses cookies. We will ask you to consent to our use of cookies in accordance with the terms of this cookie policy when you first visit our website. By confirming your consent and using our website you are agreeing to this cookie policy, and you consent to our use of cookies in accordance with the terms of this cookie policy.

2.About cookies

A cookie is a file containing an identifier (a string of letters and numbers) that is sent by a web server to a web browser and is stored by the browser. The identifier is then sent back to the server each time the browser requests a page from the server.

Cookies can be used by web servers to identify and track users as they navigate different pages on a website and identify users returning to a website.

Cookies may be either “persistent” cookies or “session” cookies. A persistent cookie consists of a text file sent by a web server to a web browser, which will be stored by the browser and will remain valid until its set expiry date (unless deleted by the user before the expiry date). A session cookie, on the other hand, will expire at the end of the user session, when the web browser is closed.

Cookies set by the website owner (in this case, Hive Learning) are called “first party cookies”. Cookies set by parties other than the website owner are called “third party cookies”. Third party cookies enable third party features or functionality to be provided on or through the website (e.g. such as advertising and analytics). The parties that set these third party cookies can recognise your computer both when it visits the website in question and also when it visits certain other websites.

3.Types of cookies

The specific first and third party cookies we use can be seen later in this cookie policy. We use the following types of cookies:

Essential website cookies: These cookies are strictly necessary to provide you with the services available through our website.

Performance and functionality cookies: These cookies are used to enhance the performance and functionality of our website but are non-essential to their use. However, without these cookies, certain functionality may become unavailable.

Analytics and customisation cookies: These cookies collect information that is used either in aggregate to help us understand how our websites are being used or how effective our marketing campaigns are, or to help us customise our website for you.

Advertising/marketing cookies: These cookies are used to make advertising messages more relevant to you. They perform functions like preventing the same ad from continuously reappearing.

Social networking cookies: These cookies are used to enable you to share pages and content that you find interesting on our website through third party social networking and other websites. These cookies may also be used for advertising purposes too.
