1. What are cookies?
Cookies are small text files stored on your computer, smartphone, tablet or other device when you visit a website.
Cookies and similar technologies, including pixels and tags, can be used to make a website function, remember preferences, understand how visitors use the website, measure advertising performance and provide relevant advertising.
Some cookies are strictly necessary for the operation of our website. Other cookies are only used if you have given us your consent.
2. How we use cookies
WoodStocks uses cookies and similar technologies for the following purposes:
Strictly necessary cookies
These cookies are required for the website and its essential functions to operate correctly. They may, for example, be used for:
- security and fraud prevention;
- user authentication and login sessions;
- maintaining website functionality;
- processing payments; and
- remembering your cookie consent choices.
Strictly necessary cookies do not require consent where their use is necessary to provide the service requested by you.
Analytics cookies
With your consent, we use analytics technologies to understand how visitors use WoodStocks.
This may include information about:
- pages visited;
- time spent on pages;
- navigation through the website;
- browser and device information;
- approximate geographic information;
- referring websites or campaigns; and
- interactions with features on the website.
We use Google Analytics for this purpose.
Google Analytics helps us understand website usage and improve the performance, functionality and user experience of WoodStocks.
Advertising and marketing cookies
With your consent, we use advertising and tracking technologies provided by Google and Meta.
These technologies help us:
- measure the effectiveness of advertising campaigns;
- understand whether advertisements result in visits, registrations or other conversions;
- create audiences for advertising;
- perform remarketing or retargeting;
- limit or optimise advertising delivery; and
- provide more relevant advertising.
3. Services we use
Google Analytics
We use Google Analytics, provided by Google, to collect information about how visitors interact with our website.
Google Analytics may use cookies and other identifiers to collect information about website activity, devices and interactions.
We use this information to analyse website performance and improve WoodStocks.
Analytics storage will only be enabled where required consent has been provided.
Google Ads
We use Google Ads technologies for advertising, conversion measurement and, where applicable and consented to, remarketing and personalised advertising.
Google Ads may use cookies and similar identifiers to determine whether a visitor arrived through one of our advertisements and whether certain actions were subsequently completed on WoodStocks.
Where required, advertising storage and personalised advertising are disabled unless you provide the relevant consent.
Meta Pixel
We use the Meta Pixel provided by Meta Platforms.
The Meta Pixel enables us to measure activity resulting from advertisements displayed on Meta services such as Facebook and Instagram.
Depending on your consent and our configuration, the Meta Pixel may collect information about your browser, device and interactions with WoodStocks and may associate this information with advertising activity.
We use this technology for conversion measurement, campaign optimisation, audience measurement and, where consented to, targeted or retargeted advertising.
The Meta Pixel is not activated for non-essential tracking before the required consent has been obtained.
Stripe
We use Stripe to process payments and provide payment-related functionality.
Stripe may use cookies and similar technologies that are necessary to process payments, prevent fraud, maintain security and provide its services.
Certain Stripe technologies may therefore be classified as strictly necessary where they are required to provide a payment service requested by the user.
Where Stripe uses technologies for purposes that are not strictly necessary and require consent, those technologies will only be activated in accordance with your consent preferences.
4. Your consent
When you first visit WoodStocks, you are presented with a cookie consent interface where applicable.
You can choose whether to allow non-essential cookies and similar technologies.
You may:
- accept all optional cookies;
- reject optional cookies; or
- select the categories of cookies you wish to allow.
Rejecting optional cookies will not prevent you from accessing the basic functionality of WoodStocks, although certain features or personalised experiences may be limited.
Your consent must be given freely and can be withdrawn at any time.
5. Changing or withdrawing your consent
You can change or withdraw your cookie consent at any time through the available on our website.
Withdrawing consent does not affect the lawfulness of processing carried out before the consent was withdrawn.
When consent is withdrawn, we will stop using the relevant optional cookies and tracking technologies for future activity, subject to technical and legal requirements.
You may also delete existing cookies through your browser settings.
