1 INTRODUCTION
Cookies are small pieces of data that websites may use for various purposes. Cookies are often used to enable a user's experience whilst using a particular website for example, by personalising their experience, providing data as to which parts of the website a user has visited and other data that may inform enhanced user experience, website functionality, performance and/or advertising.
2 PURPOSE
This policy seeks to disclose what cookies Institute of Chartered Entrepreneurs (NPC) ("Institute of Chartered Entrepreneurs ", "we", "us, "our") use on our website. It further seeks to disclose how those cookies are used to collect the personal information/data of visitors to our website as well as how you, the user, may control the collection and use of your data. In particular, the purpose of this policy is threefold:
2.1 to provide full disclosure regarding our collection and use of data through cookies;
2.2 to create transparency between ourselves and visitors to our website; and
2.3 to inform users as to what rights they may have in respect of our use of cookies and how those rights may be exercised to protect their personal information.
