A cookie is a small text file that can be placed on your computer. It allows us to identify you to our server and remember you. It is sent to your computer’s browser and is stored on your hard drive, tablet or mobile device. Cookies only identify the computer used, not the user.
When you visit our site, we may collect data from these cookies and other means like web beacons. To learn more about cookies, please visit About Cookies.
How and why do we use cookies?
Gatwick uses cookies to understand our customers' use of the website and to improve your experience of our site. By using cookies, we will:
The cookies that we use are known as ‘first party cookies’. The cookies that other organisations use on our site are known as ‘third party cookies’. These also collect user data on our sites through cookies, tags and pixels. Tags and pixels, also known as web beacons, are similar to cookies but are collected through embedded images. They can also track your use after you have left the website.
You do not have to accept cookies. Under your data protection rights, you can change your preferences upon visiting the site once the cookie banner is served. Once your preferences have been set, this banner will be served again if we change the cookies used on the site.
We use five different types of cookies:
Strictly Necessary
These help the site function during your use and are also known as session cookies. They remember your login or what you have put in your shopping basket.
If these cookies are disabled, various functionalities on the site will not work. Because of this, these cookies are always set to ‘enabled’. You can learn more about session cookies and what they are used for on the About Cookies site.
Performance
These are used for gathering data on how visitors use a website, which pages they visit the most often, or if they get error messages on web pages.
These cookies monitor only the performance of the site as the user interacts with it. They don’t collect information that could identify users. The data is anonymous and only used to improve the functionality of a website. However, third parties may place performance cookies on our sites.
Functional
These allow websites to remember the user’s site preferences and the choices they make on the site. This allows the website to provide personalized features like local news stories and weather if you share your location. They are anonymous and don’t track browsing activity across other websites.
Advertising
These cookies display advertisements that may be of interest to you based on your browsing and purchase history. The data the cookies gather can be shared with other advertisers to measure the performance.
Advertising cookies also build user profiles from site visitors to gather statistics on the performance of the advertisements that can carry across many websites. For more details, please see Your Online Choices.
Social Media
These are third-party cookies that link to your social media accounts to build a picture of the websites you visit and your preferences.
These cookies are also classified as persistent or session cookies. They do not store any data that is unencrypted and could identify users.
A session cookie only lasts for the duration of your visit (your 'session') and is deleted when you close your browser. They enable us to identify that the same person is moving from page to page.
A persistent cookie will remain on your computer after you have visited our site. This means the site can remember your settings the next time you visit it.
From time to time, we may also embed external content from other third-party websites within our website. These include Facebook and Twitter. You can view their cookie policies on their websites.
Some parts of our sites are managed by our partners who may operate their own cookie policies.
How do I refuse or withdraw consent to the use of cookies?
You may refuse cookies by altering your choice in the cookies preference centre on the Gatwick site. We regularly run a consent refresh programme so users can keep their consent up to date. You can also change your preferences in the settings on your browser.
Please note that if you choose not to allow cookies, some areas of our website may not function properly or be accessible. For more details on how to refuse cookies, please refer to your browser's ‘help’ section or see All About Cookies.
If you delete your cookies, sites can’t use them to improve your browsing experience. Sites also can’t use your cookies to see browsing activity across other sites. Some site features may also break.
Other ad management cookies
We allow ads on the website from partners. Our partners will serve ads that they believe are most likely to be of interest to you, based on your visit to the website and other websites. To do this, our partners may need to place cookies on your computer. These cookies hold data about the computer, not about you.
Please note that turning off ad cookies won't mean that you are not served any ads. It just means that the ads you do see will not be tailored to your interests. By entering our website and using it you are consenting to the use of cookies.
If you have any questions about the cookies we use, please contact us via email.
