Cookie Policy
By visiting this website with your browser settings adjusted to allow cookies, you are consenting to bodyimage.uk using cookies for the purposes outlined below so we can provide you with a quality online experience.
To make full use of bodyimage.uk and to benefit from certain website features, your computer, tablet or mobile phone will need to be set up to accept cookies. The bodyimage.uk website (like many other websites) will not work when cookies are blocked.
Without cookies, we wouldn’t be able to improve content or site usability. The cookies we use don’t store sensitive information such as your name, address or payment details and they can't harm your computer. The data we collect through these cookies is solely for the purpose of enhancing our website and your browsing experience – it is never used to identify you and we would never share or sell on this data.
What is a cookie?
A cookie is a small text file which is downloaded and stored on your computer or mobile device by websites that you visit. Your browser accesses the cookie file only when you visit the website that generated it. This helps to ease your navigation by remembering things like your preferences.
The information stored within any given cookie can only be accessed by the website that created it and cookies are limited to communicating only the information that you have disclosed to the site.
Types of cookie
SESSION (OR TRANSIENT) COOKIES
Session cookies are stored in your computer's memory for the length of your browsing session. They become inaccessible after the session has been inactive for a time and are automatically deleted from your computer when the browser is closed. They allow you to move from page to page without having to log-in repeatedly.
PERSISTENT (OR PERMANENT) COOKIES
Persistent cookies are stored in your computer memory and are not deleted when the browser is closed. They are used to keep your preferences for the website, so they will be remembered for next time you visit the website. They are also used to collect information about the numbers of visitors, the average time spent on a particular page and analyse browsing behaviour on the website. This information is used to find out how well the website works and where it can be improved.
FLASH COOKIES (OR LOCALLY SHARED OBJECTS)
Websites that contain Flash can also store small files on your computer that are used in the same way as cookies. Flash cookies can also back up the data that is stored in other cookies. When you delete cookies, your Flash cookies are not affected. So a website may still recognise you if it backed up the deleted cookie information on a Flash cookie.
SHARING WITH SOCIAL NETWORKS
If you use the buttons that allow you to share services and content with your friends via social networks like Twitter and Facebook, these companies may set a cookie on your computer memory. Find out more about these here:
