What are cookies?

Cookies are small text files that are stored on your computer or mobile device when you visit a website. Cookies are extremely common and most websites use them in order to improve the user experience. They allow the website to remember useful information such as whether you are currently logged in to save you having to log in every time you navigate to a new page. Information provided by cookies can also help the website owner analyse your use of their website, which is an important part of being able to provide you with a better user experience.

Like many websites, we use Google Analytics to collect information about how visitors use our website and to highlight any problems such as broken links.

Log Files

Like many websites, we collect and use the data contained in log files. The information in the log files include a visitor's IP (internet protocol) address, their ISP (internet service provider, such as BT Internet or Virgin), the browser they used to visit this website (such as Internet Explorer or Google Chrome), the time they visited our website and which pages they visited throughout our website.

Third Party Advertisements

We also use third party advertisements on Breedia to support our website. Some of these advertisers may use technology such as cookies and web beacons when they advertise on our site, which will also send these advertisers (such as Google through the Google AdSense programme) information including your IP address, your ISP , the browser you used to visit our website, and in some cases, whether you have a particular browser plug-in (such as Flash) installed. This is generally used for geo-targeting purposes (for example, showing London adverts to someone who lives in London) or displaying certain advertisements based on specific websites visited (such as showing dog-related advertisements to someone who frequents dog-related websites). Deleting cookies does not mean that you are permanently opted out of any advertising programme. Unless you have settings that disallow cookies, the next time you visit a website running the advertisements, a new cookie will normally be added.
