Mayhawk’s use of Cookies
What are cookies? Cookies are small files of information that our web server generates and sends to your web browser for several important purposes. For example, cookies enable you to use our e-commerce ‘shopping bag’ and to personalise your experience on our sites. They give us aggregated ‘trending data’ and insights into user behaviour so we can improve our website, services, communications and products.
In summary we primarily use cookies to allow the user of our Site access to modern e-commerce features, to track the usage of people on the Site, (and only within the Site) to improve functionality, and log interactions with our e-Newsletter communications to understand our customers’ preferences and experiences. The analysis of this aggregated data helps us improve as a company and offer a more streamlined and enhanced user experience.
The information these cookies collect will not personally identify you, and they are not used to track your browsing activity on non-Mayhawk websites.
We use the following categories of cookies on our websites and other online services and emails:
Category 1 — Strictly Necessary Cookies
These cookies are essential to enable you to browse around our websites and use their features. Without these cookies, e-commerce services like shopping bags and e-billing cannot be provided.
Category 2 — Performance Cookies
These cookies collect information about how people use our websites — for instance, which pages people go to most. This data may be used to help optimise our websites and make them easier for people to navigate. These cookies don’t collect information that identifies you. All information these cookies collect is aggregated and therefore anonymous.
Category 3 — Functionality Cookies
These cookies allow our websites to remember choices you make while browsing. For instance, we may store your geographic location in a cookie to ensure that we show you our website localised for your area. They may also be used to keep track of what featured products or videos have been viewed to avoid repetition. The information these cookies collect will not personally identify you, and they cannot track your browsing activity on non-Mayhawk websites. They are there to help meet your preferences and serve greater functionality to your needs on our websites.
