Cookie Policy on DIGI.uk
www.digi.uk uses cookies. Continuing navigation on this site is considered acceptance of the cookies policy .
What are Cookies and Why Do We Use Them?
Cookies are small text files placed on your computer or mobile device when you visit our website. First-party cookies are set by the domains you are visiting at that time. Third-party cookies are set by different domains than the website pages you are visiting, such as cookies set by services used by the website. The information collected by cookies doesn't store your name, details entered into forms, or other personal information of that nature. However, it does contain a unique ID to distinguish one visitor from another, which makes this ID personal data.
Cookies are used for a variety of purposes. Firstly, they are often essential for the proper functioning of the website. For example, without cookies, it would be difficult for the website to remember that you are logged in or which products you have added to your shopping basket. These are known as essential cookies, and they are activated automatically without requiring your consent. We also include cookies placed to show you non-personalised advertising (those that simply remember that an advert has been displayed) and those that measure our website audience (excluding demographic or audience segmentation data), as measuring traffic is essential for our website to be sustainable, and privacy regulations aren’t intended to block advertising.
Analytics cookies gather information about how visitors use a website, such as which pages are most popular, which navigation methods are most effective, and whether users encounter error messages. These cookies allow us to provide users with a high-quality browsing experience and help us to improve the functionality of our website. They also contribute to audience demographic segmentation, which may be used for ad personalisation if that purpose is permitted.
Thirdly, when we integrate social media plugins into our site, these place social media cookies to enable content playback (e.g., YouTube, SoundCloud), allow you to log in using a third-party service (e.g., Facebook or Google), and allow you to like or share a page or product on your preferred social media platform.
A fourth important reason we use cookies is to enable online advertising personalisation. Advertising personalisation is the way the online industry currently operates, allowing websites to avoid charging visitors and instead funding themselves through advertising. Brands advertising are interested in reaching audiences relevant to their products and services, meaning specific visitor categories are selected to display those particular ads. Generally, these brands do not process personal data when making these selections, but the profile created about visitors is based on data collected through advertising profiling cookies. When we use the Google Ads Remarketing service (as described in the Profiling of Our Users via Google Ads Remarketing section above), Google acts as an independent data processor on our behalf. Similarly, when we use the Facebook Pixel service (as described in the Profiling of Our Users via Facebook Pixel section above), Facebook acts as an independent data processor on our behalf regarding the data processed. You can opt out of being profiled by Google for advertising purposes by visiting:
https://www.google.com/settings/ads or https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout/.
What cookies do we use?
The cookies placed when you access our website are as follows:
NECESSARY COOKIES/NECESSARY TECHNOLOGIES
These data are necessary for the functioning of the website, for example to remember your login details, to be able to use the shopping cart, for faster loading or to render content at the appropriate resolution and to count visits. Through these cookies we try to offer you a seamless and completely secure experience.

ANALYSIS COOKIES
These cookies collect data in a way that does not directly identify any visitor/user. They are very useful for getting an idea of the audience and the quality of traffic on the website and help us understand what and where we need to improve so that your experience is better in the future. They allow us to learn about the increase in the popularity of a particular browser type or page, thus knowing how to invest time in these areas to the detriment of other initiatives that are less relevant to you.
- Site traffic analysis: how many visitors, from which geographical area, on which terminal, with which browser, etc., visit us - A/B testing to optimize the site layout - Analysis of the period of time spent by each visitor on our web pages - Requesting feedback on certain parts of the site

PROFILING/MARKETING COOKIES
We are all different, fortunately. They help us infer and understand the interests and preferences of visitors, so that we can present and/or deliver differentiated and specific content to each one, both as advertising and native content of the website. Otherwise, without them activated, you will see generic information, which does not necessarily fall into your area of interests. We believe that a visitor is more satisfied if he receives something that he cares about and that is why we believe that an OK is welcome!
- Offering advertising on the site adapted to the conclusions we draw about you based on the history of your navigation on the site and, in some cases, based on the profile we create about you. We do this to keep the site profitable, so that we do not charge a fee to access the site from those who visit it. - Even if such cookies are not used, please note that you will still be shown advertisements on our site, but these will not be tailored to your interests. These advertisements may be tailored to the content of the page.
