Cookies
A cookie is a small text file which is placed onto your device such as your computer, smartphone or other electronic device when you use our website. We use cookies on our website. These help us recognise you and your device and store some information about your preferences or past actions. For example, we may monitor how many times you visit the website, which pages you go to, traffic data, location data and the originating domain name of your internet service provider. This information helps us to build a profile of our users. Some of this data may be aggregated or statistical, which means that we will not be able to identify you individually.
On the Seren v2 marketing site, we may also use browser local storage to keep an anonymous session identifier for first-party website interest measurement. This helps us understand which pages, sections and calls to action are useful. It is not used for advertising, and it can be removed by clearing site data in your browser.
We use the following cookies:

Cookies in emails
As well as the cookies we use on our websites, we use cookies and similar technologies in some emails. These help us to understand whether you have opened an email and how you have interacted with it. If you have enabled images, cookies may be set on your computer or device. Cookies will also be set if you click on any link within the email.
The types of cookies we use are:
-
- Web beacons. These cookies are tiny, invisible images placed in emails to tell us whether you’ve opened them (and if so how often), how you interacted with them (for example the time you spent reading the email), which email software and web browser you used, which device you used and your IP address. We also use web beacons to help us display emails in the best format for your device.
- Link tracking. Our emails may contain a number of hyperlinks, each of which has a unique tag. When you click on one of these links the mailing company logs the click so that we can understand who has clicked through from an email to our website. We use this information to tailor future messages to you.
Consent to use cookies and changing settings
We will ask for your permission to place cookies or other similar technologies on your device, except where they are essential for us to provide you with a service that you have requested.
