Cookie Policy

We use cookies across our website to improve its performance and enhance your user experience. This policy explains how we do that. Cookies are small text files which a website may put on your computer (or mobile device) when you first visit a site or page. A cookie helps the website, or another website, to recognize your device the next time you visit. Web beacons or other similar files can also do the same thing. We use the term “cookies” in this policy to refer to all files that collect information in this way. There are many functions cookies serve.

For example, cookies can help us to remember your customer details, which Courses you've looked at, analyze how well our website is performing, or even allow us to recommend Courses we believe will be of interest to you. Certain cookies may contain personal information – for example, if you login, a cookie will store your customer identifier. Most cookies won’t collect information that identifies you, and will instead collect more general information such as how users arrive at and use our website, or a user’s general location. The cookies on our website perform one of the following three functions:

1. Essential Cookies

Some cookies are essential for the operation of our website. For example, some cookies allow us to identify visitors or customers and ensure they can access details of previous orders, their address book, etc. We also might store your most recent order identifier in order that we can present you with order tracking information when you return to the website.

Another use of cookies is to store the preferred currency for presentation of Courses prices. Other cookies are used to ensure that affiliates that drive traffic to our website get paid for any subsequent orders that are placed. If a user or customer opts to disable these cookies, the user will not be able to access all of the past order information or may not be able to use our checkout.

2. Performance Cookies

Our website uses other cookies to analyze how visitors the website and to monitor website performance. This allows us to provide a high-quality experience by customizing our offering and quickly identifying and fixing any issues that arise.

For example, we might use performance cookies to keep track of which pages are most popular, which method of linking between pages is most effective, and to determine why some pages are receiving error messages. We might also use these cookies to highlight Courses that we think will be of interest to you based on your usage of the website. We also use cookies to help us test various creatives or features on the site to see which ones are most liked by customers.

3. Functionality Cookies

We use functionality cookies to allow us to remember your preferences or which Courses category you are visiting (e.g. shoes. chocolates, plants or wine). For example, cookies save you the trouble of typing in your details every time you access the site.

Third party use of cookies on our website

We may also use third party cookies to help us with market research, revenue tracking, improving site functionality and monitoring compliance with our terms and conditions and copyright policy.

Banner advertising on 3rd party websites

Other uses of cookies - tracking emails

The emails that we send customers may contain a single, campaign-unique “web beacon pixel” to tell us whether these emails are opened and verify any clickthrough to links in the email. We may use this information for purposes including determining which of our emails are more interesting to users or to query whether users who do not open our emails wish to continue receiving them. The pixel will be deleted when you delete the email. If you do not wish the pixel to be downloaded to your device, you should select to receive emails from us in plain text rather than HTML.
