1. COOKIES – WHAT ARE THEY AND HOW DO WE USE THEM?

Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. Leumi UK uses cookies to recognise you and your preferences, enhance the performance of our website and collect analytical information for the benefit of our customers. The term 'cookies' also includes similar technologies for collecting and storing information, such as Local Shared Objects (commonly referred to as "flash cookies"), tracking pixels and web beacons (including transparent or clear gifs).

'Session cookies' allow us to track your actions during a single browser session, for example to remember the items returned from a search. They do not remain on your device beyond your session.

'Persistent cookies' remain on your device between sessions and allow us to authenticate you and to remember your preferences for future visits.

We also use first and third-party cookies on our website and in our emails. First party cookies are cookies placed by us to collect information about you, and third-party cookies are cookies placed by third party website operators. This means that the information about you collected by those third-party cookies will be shared with the relevant third party. Please refer to the relevant third party website operator’s privacy notice for more information about how they may use such information.
