More about cookies on BT websites

A "cookie" is a text file containing a small amount of information which a server downloads to your personal computer (PC) or mobile when you visit a website. The next time you visit that website or any other website, your PC checks to see if it has a cookie that the website recognises. If it has such a cookie, it communicates with the website and enables the website to read the information held in that cookie.

More about cookies on BT websites

Cookies and similar technologies (“cookies”) allow small pieces of information to be read from and/or placed onto your device when you visit a website or application. This allows for websites and applications to recognise you or your device on each subsequent visit so that they can remember things like preferences, log in information and saved shopping carts.

Cookies are very useful and do lots of different jobs. For example, they enable you to move between our web pages efficiently, remember your preferences when you visit us again and generally improve your experience when browsing with us. They can also help to ensure that adverts you see online are more relevant to you and your interests, which in turn help us to tailor our communications.

Cookies last for different lengths of time depending on the job they do. There are session cookies and persistent cookies:

-          Session cookies only last for your online session and disappear from your device when you close your browser.

-          Persistent cookies stay on your device after the browser has been closed and last for the period of time specified in the cookie.

You can find information about how BT processes your personal data in our privacy policy which can be found at bt.com/privacy-policy/

Your Choices

We will only place cookies for the preference level you set. Your preference level will be set depending on the options chosen (usually when you first visit our website), however these can be changed at any time by clicking "Manage Cookie Settings" at the top of this page.

Please note that we may share the information we obtain from cookies with other members of the BT Group. All members of the BT Group provide the same high level of security and protection and will only use information obtained from cookies in accordance with the preferences you set.

Targeting

The core purpose of targeting cookies (otherwise known as advertising cookies) is to provide BT with valuable insights into what our customers want, including but not limited to, insight into the communications and services our customers and potential customers may be interested in.

Disabling targeting cookies, generally does not stop you receiving advertising. It simply means that the advertising you receive is less likely to be aligned with your interests.

In order to gain the insights, in some instances we may analyse your personal information to create a profile of your interests and preferences so that we can contact you with information relevant to you. This helps to avoid you receiving advertising that is not relevant to you or your interests.

In some instances, we may also use this information to inform us of how well our communications are received by our customers and website users. In order to do this, we may make use of additional information about you when it is available from internal and external sources to help us do this effectively.

These cookies are also linked to services provided to BT and our customers by our trusted partners (see the Third Parties section below for more information).  We/our trusted partners may also share data derived from these cookies with other members of the BT Group for the purpose and provision of the services they provide. 

We use Targeting cookies to:

·       Link to social networks like Facebook, who may subsequently use information about your visit to target advertising to you on other websites.

·       Provide advertising agencies with information on your visit, so that they can present you with adverts that you may be interested in when you return to our website or visit other third party websites.

·       Deliver content and marketing communications tailored to your interests based on information from your visit.

·       Help us to segment and understand our audience by providing additional information so that we can send the most relevant communications possible;

·       Help us identify customers similar to our audience or to serve relevant adverts to you on third party websites and apps;

·       Help us to understand how well our marketing initiatives are performing and whether to continue, change or cease those initiatives; and

·       To provide tailored communications to you and personalise your use of our website when logged in, and in limited circumstances, when logged out (subject to your preferences)

Online behavioural advertising

We, and our trusted partners (see “Third parties” section below) use information collected from targeting cookies to collect information about your device and identify your interests by understanding how you interact with our websites, communications and services. We do this so we can tailor advertising we show you on our own and third party sites and apps.

The information we and our trusted partners collect and share through targeting cookies does not directly identify you. It does not include your name or address.

We use your IP address, together with the interests we have assumed based on how you’ve navigated to and interacted with our websites.

We will also share interest-based advertising information with the third parties that set targeting cookies via our website.

You can opt-out of the use of targeting cookies on our website for online behavioural advertising purposes by blocking and/or deleting these cookies as described below.

Here is a list of the cookies we have categorised as 'Targeting'.

Web beacons (also known as internet tags, pixel tags and clear GIFs) are typically transparent graphic images placed on a site or email. Web beacons are used in combination with cookies to measure the actions of visitors on websites. We may use beacons to obtain information such as the IP address of the computer that downloaded the page on which the beacon appears, the URL of the page on which the beacon appears, the time the page containing the beacon was viewed, and the type of browser used to view the page.

ETag

A feature of the cache in browsers, an ETag is an opaque identifier assigned by a web server to a specific version of a resource found at a URL. If the resource content at that URL ever changes, a new and different ETag is assigned. Used in this manner ETags are a form of device identifier. ETag tracking generates unique tracking values even where the consumer blocks HTTP, Flash, and/or HTML5 cookies.

There are ways you can control and manage cookies on your device. Please remember that any settings you change at browser or device level will not just affect the cookies we use. These changes will apply to all websites you visit (unless you choose to block cookies from sites).

Our Cookie Banner

You can directly edit your preferences in relation to the cookies BT set by using the BT “Manage Cookie Settings” function to set your preferences. Here you can select your preferences in relation to all non-essential cookies placed by our website.

This method will not impact any cookies previously set, prior to your change in preferences. If you wish to manage existing cookies, you can use your browser settings as outlined below.

Managing cookies in your browser

Most browsers will allow you to choose the level of privacy settings you want. You can (a) block all cookies, (b) accept all cookies, or (c) pick a setting somewhere in between. This range lets you control your cookie settings, so you can:

·       See what cookies you've got and delete them on an individual basis

·       Block third party cookies

·       Block cookies from particular sites

·       Block all cookies from being set

·       Delete all cookies when you close your browser

Deleting cookies means that any preference settings you have made on a website will be lost. Blocking all cookies means functionality on our websites will be lost, as described above. We don’t recommend turning all cookies off when using our websites.

If you want to reduce your cookie settings at any time – for example, if you accept all cookies, but later decide you don’t want a certain type of cookie – you’ll need to use your browser settings to remove any cookies dropped on your previous visit.
