2. Cookies

Thomas Miller P&I Ltd (“UK P&I”, “we” or “us”) operates www.ukpandi.com (the “Website”). UK P&I respects your privacy and is committed to protecting your personal data.

This Cookie Policy explains what cookies are, and how and why they may be stored on and accessed from your device when you view the Website. You should read this Cookie Policy alongside our Privacy Notice and the Website Terms of Use.

What are cookies?

Cookies are text files containing a small amount of data, usually a unique string of letters and numbers. They are commonly used throughout the Internet and are stored on, and accessed from, your device when you visit a website (including this Website). This allows the website to recognise your visit and differentiate you from other users of the website.

The term ‘cookies’ also includes technologies that operate in a similar way to traditional web cookies, such as pixels or tags. A pixel or tag is a snippet of code that enables cookies to be stored on your device. They allow the owner of the website to identify a user’s browser as they navigate different websites.

You can find out more information about cookies and similar technologies on the Information Commissioner’s Officer (ICO) website by clicking here.

How does this Website use cookies?

a. Cookies may be used by the Website to allow us to recognise you and your preferred settings e.g. to store your ID and password for future sessions. This saves you from re-entering information on return visits to the Website. You have the option not to use this feature, in which event no cookies will be retained on your computer.

b. If the site has a secure log-in for our registered users, it may use a temporary ’session cookie’ in order to perform the secure login to our Website. This cookie contains no personal information, just a long random number, and is deleted from your web browser when you exit the Website.

c. Temporary cookies are used in the transactional part of the Website (on the Thomas Miller Connect portal) to authenticate you as an authorised user after you have logged in.

We use session cookies to record an individual users preferences that the user has specified, so that each time the user returns their preferences remain. Commonly this would be language settings, shopping carts, anything where you have indicated a preference. Where forms are used on the site, we hold the information in a session cookie so that we can improve the user experience on the site. Should a user, for example, forget to fill in parts of a form when submitting a form, we can auto-fill the values for those fields that have been filled in, thereby reducing the amount of fields a user needs to amend. This information is stored only in your browser and is destroyed once your browser is closed.
