About cookies

When we refer to “cookies” we mean any tool used to store or access information on a User’s computer or other device. Cookies are widely used to allow online and mobile sites to function efficiently. A cookie is often a small text file that (depending on your browser settings) is deposited on your computer, mobile phone, tablet or other device when you visit a site. The cookie may be sent back to that site when you visit again, and may then be used by the server to identify and track your use of the UKMediaJobs.co.uk website.

Cookies last for various durations. A “session cookie” is a short-lived cookie which, depending on your browser settings, is generally deleted when you close your browser. A “persistent” cookie is a long-term cookie that will be stored by your browser until its set expiry date (unless you delete it before the expiry date).

There are four widely recognised categories of cookie by function:

Strictly necessary cookies: These are necessary for the operation of a site (or part of a site), e.g. enabling a user to log into secure areas of a site.
Performance cookies: These are limited to performance and website improvement, e.g. measuring errors to support service improvement.
Functionality cookies: These are usually the result of an action by a visitor to a site. They may be used to stop a visitor being offered the same service twice, e.g. so as to prevent a visitor from being asked if they want to fill in a survey when they have already chosen not to do so.
Targeting cookies or advertising cookies: These record your browsing history (such as visits to sites, visits to particular pages and links followed) and use that information to make content and/or advertising displayed on a site more relevant to you.

This page describes what information they gather, how we use that information and why we sometimes need to store these cookies. It also explains how you can prevent these cookies from being stored; however, this may downgrade or 'break' certain elements of the site's functionality.

If you create an account with us then we will use cookies for the management of the signup process and general administration. These cookies will usually be deleted when you log out (these are known as “session cookies”). However, in some cases they may remain afterwards to remember your site preferences when logged out (these long-term cookies are known as “persistent” cookies). We use cookies when you are logged in so that we can remember this fact. This prevents you from having to log in every single time you visit a new page.
