Cookies Policy

We respect the privacy of web users and visitors (“you”) visiting our online services, website and associated site pages (our “website”). Like many other websites, we use cookies and similar technologies (“cookies”). The purpose of this cookies policy is to provide you with comprehensive information about the cookies we use and our purposes for using them.

For more information on how we process your personal data please see our Privacy Policy 

Our cookies policy does not cover third party websites. You should review the cookies notice for any other third party website you use. Please note that this Policy does not apply to, and we are not responsible for, the privacy practices of third-party websites which may be linked to or accessible through this website.

What is a cookie?

Cookies are tiny text files that are used to improve your experience when you navigate our website. A cookie can be downloaded on your browser, device (laptop, smartphone or tablet) or the hard drive of your computer. We widely use cookies to make our website work better by improving efficiency, to collate general website usage and aggregated statistical information. They are useful because they allow our website to recognise your device, remember your preferences and tailor content to your interests through tracking your browsing across our website.

A number of websites provide detailed information on cookies, including http://www.aboutcookies.org/ and AllAboutCookies.org. You can also watch a video on cookies at https://policies.google.com/technologies/cookies

Types of cookies

There are 4 categories of cookies:

  • Strictly necessary cookies. These cookies help make a website usable by enabling basic functions like page navigation and access to secure areas of the website. The website cannot function properly without these cookies.
  • Preference cookies. These cookies enable a website to remember information that changes the way the website behaves or looks, like your preferred language or the region that you are in.
  • Statistical cookies. These cookies Statistic cookies help website owners to understand how visitors interact with websites by collecting and reporting information anonymously.
  • Targeting/Marketing cookies. These cookies are used to track visitors across websites. The intention is to display ads that are relevant and engaging for the individual user and thereby more valuable for publishers and third-party advertisers.

First and Third-Party Cookies

  • First party cookies are cookies set by our website when you visit for the time (e.g., cookies placed by www.tlt.com).
  • Third party cookie are cookies that are set by a domain other than that of www.tlt.com being visited by you. If you visit our website and another entity sets a cookie through that site, this would be classified as a third-party cookie.

Cookies come in two types: session and persistent.

  • Session cookies are used only while navigating a website. When the ‘session’ ends, these cookies are automatically deleted. They also help the "back" button or third-party anonymizer plugins work. These plugins are designed for specific browsers to work and help maintain user privacy.
  • Persistent cookies remain on a computer indefinitely, although many include an expiration date and are automatically removed when that date is reached. Persistent cookies are used for two primary purposes:
  • Authentication. These cookies track whether a user is logged in and under what name. They also streamline login information, so users don't have to remember site passwords.
  • Tracking. These cookies track multiple visits to the same site over time. Some online merchants, for example, use cookies to track visits from particular users, including the pages and products viewed. The information they gain allows them to suggest other items that might interest visitors. Gradually, a profile is built based on a user's browsing history on that site.

Our use of cookies

In addition to enabling our website to function correctly, we use cookies to personalise content and ads, to provide social media features and to analyse our website traffic. We also share information about your use of our website with our social media, advertising and analytics partners who may combine it with other information that you have provided to them or that they have collected from your use of their services.

Where you receive a marketing email, event invitation or other direct mailing from us, we may collect information about you in the following ways:

  • View as web page: If you click on the "view it as a web page" link, a session cookie is recorded by us so that the web page is personalised in the same way as the email.
  • Links to web pages: If you click on any web link, we will record a session cookie and will automatically log such activity on our database.
  • Event RSVP buttons: In our event invitations and confirmations we provide buttons to allow you to accept, decline, cancel and register (if you are not the original recipient of the email) for that event. Clicking on these buttons will generate session cookies and your choice will be recorded in our database to help us manage the event.
  • Unsubscribe: If you click unsubscribe, we will automatically log this information on our database. If you unsubscribe from any email invitation or alert, we will continue to store your personal data on a "marketing suppression list" so as to record your preference.

You can find a full list of cookies we use on our website and why we use them in the table below.
