5. Cookies

When Visitor visits a WGSN website(s), WGSN uses “cookies” technology to try to make that experience simple, personalized and meaningful. Cookies are small pieces of information which are issued to Visitor’s computer or any similar device Visitor uses to access the internet (e.g. smart phone, tablet or other mobile device when Visitor visits a website), and which store and sometimes track information about Visitor’s use of the website. A number of cookies WGSN use last only for the duration of Visitor’s web session and expire when Visitor closes the browser. Other cookies are used to record information for Visitor’s future accesses to the website and will last for longer.

WGSN use cookies to:

• create a specific log-in session for Visitors of a WGSN website in order that page requests by Visitor are delivered in an effective, secure and consistent manner;

• recognise when Visitors to a WGSN website have visited before; this means WGSN can identify the number of unique Visitors received on the website and allows WGSN to make sure it has enough capacity for the number of Visitors that it gets;

• customise elements of the promotional layout and/or content of the pages of the website;

• store Visitor’s product selections to the shopping basket;

• collect statistical information about how Visitors use the website(s) so that WGSN can improve the website(s) and learn which parts are most popular to Visitors; and

• gather information through our advertising partners, about the pages on the WGSN website(s) that Visitors visit, and also other information about other websites that Visitors visit, so as to place Visitor in an “interest segment”. This information will then be used to serve interest-based advertisements, which it are believed to target Visitor’s interests. For more information about this type of interest based advertising, and about how to turn this feature off please visit www.youronlinechoices.co.uk or follow the link to the website of our advertising partners shown below. Without these cookies, advertisements Visitors encounter will be less relevant to Visitors and to Visitors’ interests.

Some of the cookies used by WGSN websites are set by WGSN itself, and some are set by third parties who are delivering services to WGSN. Most web browsers automatically accept cookies, but, if preferred, Visitor can change the browser to prevent that or to notify Visitor each time a cookie is set. Visitors can also learn more about cookies by visiting www.allaboutcookies.org, which includes additional useful information on cookies and how to block cookies using different types of browser. Please note however, that by blocking or deleting cookies used on a WGSN website(s) Visitor may not be able to take full advantage of the website(s).

6. Third Party Websites

Please be aware that WGSN does not control and is not responsible for any third party websites that are referred to or linked from its own websites and that use of Personal Data on these websites is not subject to this Privacy and Cookies Policy and shall be made entirely at Visitor’s own risk.

7. Registration

7.1. To access certain parts of the WGSN websites, WGSN may require Visitor to register and provide certain information.

7.2. In addition to the provisions of this Privacy and Cookies Policy, Visitor also agrees to:

(i) provide true, accurate, current and complete information about yourself as prompted by the relevant registration form (“Registration Data”); and

(ii) maintain and promptly update the Registration Data to keep it fully up to date.

8. Electronic Identity

Visitor shall assume full responsibility for the confidentiality and proper use of username and password, created when registering for WGSN website access.

9. Governing Law

This Privacy Policy is governed by, and will be construed in accordance with English Law.

The parties submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of England and Wales in relation to any legal actions or proceedings arising out of or in connection with this Policy, save that this submission will not preclude any party from applying to any other court having jurisdiction for urgent or interim relief in aid of proposed or pending proceedings in England.
