Cashrewards Cookie Policy
We have updated our Cookie Policy to make it easier to read, and to clarify how Cashrewards and third parties use cookies and similar technologies in connection with the Cashrewards service. A copy of the previous Cookie Policy can be found here. Moving forward the below Cookie Policy will apply to your use of the Cashrewards service.
This Cookie Policy describes how Cashrewards uses cookies and similar technologies in connection with the Cashrewards service (“Service”). It also includes information about how you can manage the use of such technologies.
By using the Cashrewards website, app or notifier (together, the “Cashrewards Platform”), you agree that we can use these cookies and similar technologies as described in this Cookie Policy.
1. WHAT ARE COOKIES AND SIMILAR TECHNOLOGIES?
Cookies
Cookies are small text files that are stored by your browser and downloaded on your computer or other device when you visit a website. They are designed to hold a small amount of data specific to you and the website and uniquely identify your device. Cookies ensure a consistent and efficient experience for visitors to the Cashrewards Platform and perform essential functions such as allowing members to remain logged in.
Cookies may be set by a site that you are visiting ('first party cookies') or by third parties ('third party cookies') such as advertisers, ad networks or analytics providers (for example Google Analytics).
Similar technologies
Cashrewards also utilises other tracking technologies, including pixels and server to server tracking. Pixels are small images that provide us with statistics for similar purposes as cookies. Pixels may be used for advertising or for tracking of transactions. When you click on a link, server to server tracking creates a unique identifier that is stored server-side, this identifier is later matched if you make a conversion (such as a purchase).
2. HOW DO WE USE COOKIES AND SIMILAR TECHNOLOGIES?
We use cookies and similar technologies for a number of different purposes. For example, cookies and similar technologies may be necessary to allow the Service to work, such as allowing members to log in or to track transactions for cashback. They may also enable us to collect data about how members use the Service so that we can improve it, or to deliver a personalised experience (for example by remembering your preferences and allowing us to display offers and ads that are more relevant to your likely interests).
Cookies and similar technologies may be set when a page is loaded while other cookies and similar technologies require a specific action like clicking a button such as “Shop Now”. Cookies and similar technologies provide you with an enriched experience on the Cashrewards Platform and some functions may not perform as smoothly without them.
The Cashrewards website uses both ‘persistent cookies’ and ‘session cookies’. Persistent cookies remain on your device for the period specified in the cookie, and includes cookies used to recognise you each time you visit our website. Session cookies are created when you visit our website (for example to link your actions during a single browsing session) and are automatically deleted when you close your browser.
Information we may collect through cookies and other tracking technologies includes but is not limited to: clicks, click date and time, page views, session ID and device ID. All information derived from these cookies and similar technologies may be combined with other information acquired from third parties, and we may share this information, in aggregate and anonymised form, with third parties such as advertisers. For more information relating to this see our Privacy Policy.
3. HOW DO THIRD PARTIES USE COOKIES AND SIMILAR TECHNOLOGIES?
Analytics and targeted advertising
In some circumstances, we may work with third parties to provide certain services on the Cashrewards Platform. For example, we use analytics services supported by third party companies who generate analytics cookies on our behalf. We may not have access to these cookies, although we may use statistical information arising from the cookies provided by these third parties to customise content and for the other purposes described above. These companies may also transfer this information to other parties including where they are required to do so by law, or where such other parties process the information on their behalf. Third-party advertisers may also use this information to measure the effectiveness of their advertisements and to track aggregate usage statistics.
We also work with media and advertising service providers to display our ads on third party platforms. Our service providers may use cookies and similar technologies to track your activity or engagement with our ads on those platforms, such as identifying which ads are clicked by you and how many times you viewed or clicked the ad. This allows us and our service providers to measure the effectiveness of our ads and to understand your likely interests, for the purposes of targeted advertising
We may not control the third party cookies and similar technologies referred to above, and their use may be governed by the privacy policies of the third parties employing these technologies. To learn about and/or disable these technologies, please refer to relevant third party websites such as Google Ads, YouTube, Google Analytics, Google Floodlight, Microsoft Ads, Meta, TikTok, Pinterest and ROKT.
Affiliate networks and merchants
When you click “Shop Now” on the Cashrewards website or app, or “Activate Now” on the Cashrewards notifier, your browser may redirect via an affiliate network or go directly to the merchant and that third party may drop a cookie or pixel on your device or may track your click server side. The cookie or pixel stores tracking information so that when you visit a merchant site via the Cashrewards Platform, any subsequent purchase can be matched to this click for the purposes of tracking cashback. The merchant or affiliate network will then send us information about your purchase and we can show the purchase transaction in your Cashrewards member account. We recommend that you enable cookies in your browser so purchases on third party sites can be tracked and attributed to your member account to earn cashback.
Whilst the affiliate network or merchant cookie or pixel isn’t dropped by us, we want to tell you about it before you use the Cashrewards Platform to make a transaction. By continuing to use the Cashrewards Platform you agree to third parties, such as affiliate networks and merchants as featured on the Cashrewards Platform from time to time, using cookies and other tracking technologies for the purpose of tracking and approving your cashback.
4. HOW CAN YOU OPT OUT?
You can change your browser or device settings to notify you when a cookie is being set or updated, or to disable, block or delete cookies altogether. You can change your cookie preferences for Cashrewards and/or any third party websites by changing your browser or device settings. If you reject the use of cookies or delete cookies, you will still be able to visit the Cashrewards Platform but some of the functions may not work correctly. This may mean you need to log in again or that your transaction does not track and you will not be eligible for cashback.
5. UPDATES TO THIS POLICY
We may change this Cookie Policy at any time. The ‘Last Updated’ date at the top of this policy shows when this Policy was last updated. Any changes to this Cookie Policy will become effective when we publish the revised Cookie Policy on our website or app. If we make any substantial changes to this Cookie Policy, we will display a notice on our website and app.
