Cookies Policy

Together For The Ocean uses cookies and similar technologies to enhance Your browsing experience and to collect information about how the Website is used. This Cookies Policy explains the categories of cookies, pixels, tags, scripts and related technologies We use, the purposes for which We use them and the choices available to You.

What are cookies?

Cookies are small text files placed on Your Device when You visit a website. They help Us provide the Website, remember Your preferences, understand how You interact with it and improve Your experience. Similar technologies, including pixels, web beacons, tags and scripts, can perform related functions.

How consent works

Necessary or essential cookies may be used where they are required to provide the Website, maintain security or remember Your cookie choices. Where required by law, We ask for Your consent before using optional performance, analytics, advertising or targeting technologies.

Our cookie banner allows You to accept, reject or save settings for the available categories. You can change Your choices at any time through the cookie-preference control on the Website. Refusing optional cookies should not prevent You from using essential parts of the Website, although some features may not work as intended.

Cookie consent is separate from consent to receive future email marketing and from consent to use contact details or campaign interactions for LinkedIn retargeting or matched audiences. Those choices are presented and recorded separately where applicable.

The cookies and similar technologies we use

These technologies support the basic operation and security of the Website and remember whether You have made or changed a cookie choice. They may be set by Us or by a provider acting on Our behalf.

Performance and analytics technologies

We may use Google Analytics and other analytics tools to understand how visitors use the Website, measure page visits and interactions, identify technical issues and improve the Website. These technologies may collect information such as pages viewed, time spent, device and browser information, approximate location and campaign source. Optional analytics technologies are controlled through the cookie-preference mechanism where required.

Advertisement and targeting technologies

Where enabled and permitted by law, We may use LinkedIn Insight Tag, retargeting pixels, conversion pixels and similar advertising technologies to measure campaign performance, record conversions, understand campaign interactions and show relevant Together for the Ocean advertising to people who have visited the Website or interacted with a campaign.
These technologies may allow LinkedIn or another advertising platform to recognise a Device or browser and associate Website activity with a campaign. The use of contact details to create matched, similar or lookalike audiences is described in Our Privacy Policy and is subject to separate retargeting choices where required. Cookie consent does not automatically authorise email marketing or contact-list audience matching.

Email engagement tracking

Our emails may contain tracking pixels or tracked links supplied by Mailchimp or another email service provider. These technologies may tell Us whether an email was delivered, opened or clicked and help Us understand engagement and improve communications. You can unsubscribe from marketing emails at any time using the link in the email. Email engagement tracking and email-marketing preferences are managed separately from Website cookie settings.

Third-party providers and international processing

Some cookies and similar technologies are set or provided by third parties, including Google, LinkedIn and Mailchimp. Those providers may process information in countries outside Your jurisdiction, including the United States and other locations. Their processing is subject to their own privacy information and, where applicable, contractual safeguards. Mailchimp’s international processing terms are described in its Data Processing Addendum.

You can withdraw email-marketing consent, unsubscribe from Mailchimp emails, withdraw retargeting consent, ask for removal from LinkedIn audiences or request deletion of Personal Data by contacting Us. We may retain limited information where necessary to remember and respect Your choices and opt-outs.
