TYPES OF COOKIE

A cookie (or similar technology) allows us to distinguish you from other users of our site, recognises your preferences, provides personalised content and enables our site to function more efficiently. This helps us to give you the best possible experience when you browse, and also allows us to make our site better for you. 

Our website www.kickonwithstarlingbank.com (“our site”) and each of its web pages use two types of cookies: first and third party cookies. First party cookies are cookies set by us, compared to third party cookies which are set by someone other than us and which collect information about you which may be sent to the third party.

We also use session and persistent cookies.Session cookies are cookies that expire at the end of your browsing session whereas persistent cookies are stored on your device in-between sessions. 

The categories of cookies hosted on our site are known as:

  • essential/necessary cookies for running the website. These cookies help you to access our site and each of its web pages and subdomains, by enabling basic functions like cookie consent. These are essential to the web pages and sub domains’ functionality and cannot be disabled by you.
  • non-essential cookies including analytical/performance, functionality and targeting cookies. These cookies collect anonymous statistics to enable us to improve our site and each of its pages and subdomains; provide you with full functionality of our site; and third party cookies to collect and build a profile of your interest and show you relevant advertisements on other websites. These types of cookies do not store personal information in itself but are based on a unique identification in your browser and devices which could identify you if combined with other relevant data (see below for more information about third party cookies). These cookies will not be set without your permission.
