Managing your preferences

Before we dive into the details – if you are just looking to manage your preferences on our Site relating to cookies and similar technologies (including opting-out), you can do so at any time through our Cookie Preference Centre.

If you do not accept our cookies, you may experience some inconvenience in your use of our Site. For example, we may not be able to recognise your device and you may need to log in every time you visit our Site.

What types of technologies does Quay Players use?

We may use any or all of the following “technologies” on our Site and in our emails:

Cookies: a cookie is a very small text file that may be placed on your browser or in the storage on your device. There are two types: “session cookies” and “persistent cookies”:

  • Session cookies are cookies that disappear from your device or browser when you close your browser.
  • Persistent cookies stay on your device even after you close your browser.

Please note that both The Quay Players and third-party service providers may set cookies via our Site. These “third party cookies” are set by domains other than those we control and may recognise your device across different websites.

Pixel tags:

  • A pixel tag is a single pixel, transparent GIF image with a unique identifier that can recognise certain types of data on your device (similar to how cookies do). They are used to operate and improve the Site and our email practices, including to help deliver cookies, count visits and understand usage and email campaign effectiveness.
  • For example, we may put pixel tags on emails to understand how you interact with that email – for example, whether you opened the email, whether you forwarded it, or whether you clicked on a link in the email that directed you to our Site. These pixels may collect the time, location and operating system of the device you use to read the email.

Why do we use cookies and similar technologies?

The purposes for which we use technologies may fall into one of the following categories:

  • Necessary technologies: These technologies are required to enable the basic features of the Site, such as providing secure log-in or adjusting your consent preferences.
  • Functional technologies: These technologies help perform certain functionalities like sharing the content of the Site on social media platforms, collecting feedback, and other third-party features.
  • Analytics technologies: These technologies are used to understand how visitors interact with the Site. These cookies help provide information on metrics such as the number of visitors, bounce rate, traffic source, etc. For more details about how Google uses data in the context of Google Analytics, please see here.

How can you manage your consent?

You can control or limit how cookies and similar technologies are used by taking the following steps:

  • Managing your preferences on our Site (including by opting-out) at any time by using our Cookie Preference Centre.
  • Pixel tags in emails can typically be blocked by default by configuring your preferences in your email client to block external images or setting it to show “plain text only” emails.
