Cookie Policy

What are Cookies?

A cookie is a small file which asks permission to be placed on your computer's hard drive. Cookies allow web applications to respond to you as an individual. The web application can tailor its operations to your needs, likes and dislikes, by gathering and remembering information about your preferences.

Overall, cookies help TIMCO to provide you with a better website, by enabling us to monitor which pages you find useful and which you do not. A cookie in no way gives us access to your computer or any information about you, other than the data you choose to share with us.

What Cookies Are Generally Used For?

We use traffic log cookies to identify which pages are being browsed. This data about webpage traffic can then be analysed and, as a result, improve our website in order to tailor it to customer needs. This information is used for statistical analysis purposes and then the data is removed from the system.

• Session Cookies: Session Cookies are used by the server to store information about user page activities so users can easily pick up where they left off on the server's pages. They are usually removed when the browser is closed.

• Persistent Cookies: Persistent Cookies are used to store user preferences. These changes make the site easier to navigate and/or allow users to leave a part of their “personality” at the site. These cookies expire after a certain period or can be removed manually.

Cookies fall into four categories:

1. Strictly Necessary Cookies: Are required for you to use our website, for example to navigate and to use the features we have made available. These Cookies do not collect information about you and cannot be used to identify you or be used for marketing purposes.

2. Performance Cookies: Help us understand how you use our website. They do not contain or collect any personal information and are only used to help us improve the visitor experience on our website.

3. Functionality Cookies: Let you customise how a website operates for you. Functionality Cookies can remember and auto insert Usernames, set a website’s language preference, and store your used preferences on your account page.

4. Targeting/Advertising Cookies: Allow websites to deliver relevant advertisements to you. Targeting/Advertising Cookies are ‘first party’, placed on a website by its owner or ‘third party’, when a website owner has given permission to an alternative organisation for the Cookie to be placed on its site (often an advertising network).
