The Association of Private and Independent Schools (CICAE) hereby informs users that it may use cookies when they browse the various screens and pages of the website.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

By using our website, you expressly accept and consent to the use of cookies, in accordance with our Privacy Policy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What are cookies?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

A cookie is a very small text file that a web server can place in a computer\u2019s browser to store certain information about the user. The cookie uniquely identifies the computer and can only be read by the website that sent it to the computer. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

A cookie is neither an executable file nor a programme and therefore cannot spread or contain a virus or other malicious software, nor can it be longer than 4,000 characters.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

 <\/strong>What are cookies used for?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The purpose of using cookies is to remember the user\u2019s preferences (language, country, login details, browser settings, information on how they use our website, etc.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

By remembering your preferences, we won\u2019t have to, for example, ask you for your country every time you visit our website. We\u2019ll know the operating system and browser of the device you\u2019re using, and this will enable us to offer you a better browsing experience. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Cookies can help our website recognise the user\u2019s browser as a previous visitor and thus save and remember any preferences that may have been set whilst the user was browsing the site, personalise home pages, identify which sections of the site have been visited, or keep a record of items selected in a \u2018shopping basket\u2019, amongst other things.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

THE ASSOCIATION OF PRIVATE AND INDEPENDENT SCHOOLS \u2013 CICAE may use cookies to recognise users who have visited our website and to offer them a better, more personalised service. They may also be used to obtain information about the date and time of the user\u2019s last visit, to measure certain traffic parameters within the site itself, and to estimate the number of visits made, so that the ASSOCIATION OF PRIVATE AND INDEPENDENT SCHOOLS \u2013 CICAE can target and tailor its services and promotions more effectively. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Websites typically use cookies to gather statistical information about their web pages. Please note that we collect data on your browsing activity and use of our website for statistical purposes only; this data is not personal. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Types of cookies<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Cookies can be categorised according to the organisation that manages them, how long they remain active, or their purpose. In some cases, we may find that a single cookie falls into more than one category. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
