This notice sets out how Protiviti uses cookies to recognise you when you visit our website. It explains what cookies are, why we use them, as well as your rights to control the use of them.

What are cookies?

Cookies are small text files created and stored on the browser or hard drive of your computer. Cookies contain information that is transferred to your computer's hard drive and is sent back to our website when you next visit.

For more information about the kinds of data that we generally collect, please read our Privacy Policy.

There are two types of cookies – session cookies and persistent cookies. Cookies that do not contain an end date are called session cookies. When you close your browser, the session cookie is permanently lost and the website that created the cookie will not recognise you when you go back to that website. Cookies that contain an end date are called persistent cookies. Persistent cookies stay in your browser’s memory until you delete them manually or your browser deletes them automatically based on the expiration date contained in the cookie’s file. In addition to cookies, we may also use other tracking technologies to track visitors to our website. These technologies are like cookies, such as web beacons (sometimes called "tracking pixels" or “clear gifs”). Web beacons are tiny graphics files that enable us to identify when someone has visited our website before. We use this information to track the online behaviour of our website users. For the purpose of this policy, the term cookie refers to both cookies and similar technologies.
