Last Updated: 2nd July 2025
This Cookies Policy explains how Alter Horizon (“we,” “us,” and “our”) uses cookies and similar technologies to recognise you when you visit our website at www.alterhorizon.net (“Website”). It explains what these technologies are and why we use them, as well as your rights to control their use.
What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small data files placed on your device when you visit a website. Cookies are widely used to make websites work, or to work more efficiently, as well as to provide reporting information and personalise your experience.
Cookies set by the website owner (in this case, Alter Horizon) are called “first-party cookies.” Cookies set by parties other than the website owner are called “third-party cookies.” Third-party cookies enable third-party features or functionality to be provided on or through the website (e.g., analytics, advertising, and social media).
Why Do We Use Cookies?
We use first-party and third-party cookies for several reasons. Some cookies are required for technical reasons in order for our Website to operate, and we refer to these as “essential” or “strictly necessary” cookies. Other cookies help us understand your interests and enhance your experience on our Website. For example, we use cookies to:
- Enable core site functionality (e.g., security, network management, accessibility)
- Analyse how our Website is being used (e.g., Google Analytics)
- Personalise content and remember your preferences
- Deliver targeted advertising
Types of Cookies We Use
- Strictly Necessary Cookies: These cookies are essential to provide you with services available through our Website and to use some of its features.
- Performance and Analytics Cookies: These cookies collect information used either in aggregate form to help us understand how our Website is being used or how effective our marketing campaigns are.
- Functionality Cookies: These cookies allow the Website to remember choices you make (such as your language or the region you are in) to provide a more personalised experience.
- Targeting/Advertising Cookies: These cookies are used to make advertising messages more relevant to you.
How Can You Control Cookies?
You have the right to decide whether to accept or reject cookies. You can set your browser controls to accept or refuse cookies. If you choose to reject cookies, you may still use our Website, though your access to some functionality and areas may be restricted.
You can also manage your cookie preferences through our Cookie Consent Manager, available when you first visit our Website or by clicking the “Cookie Settings” link at the bottom of our site.
