What are cookies and why do we use them?

Most websites use cookies to remember information about you and your preferences, either for the duration of your visit or for repeat visits. A cookie is a simple text file that is stored on your computer or mobile device by a website, and that website can then retrieve the contents of that cookie.

What types of cookies do we use?

The following is an explanation of cookie types that may be used.


Necessary

These cookies are necessary for the basic operation of our website. They help to make it usable by enabling functions like page navigation. The website cannot function properly without these cookies.


Performance

These cookies allow us to track the performance and usage of the Durham website with anonymised "statistics". We use cookies to track how you navigate around the website and use the statistics that these create to improve the website's performance and user experience.


Our website uses the Hotjar website session recording service. We may collect information on your use of our website, such as pages visited, links clicked, non-sensitive text entered, and mouse movements, as well as information more commonly collected such as the referring URL, browser, operating system and Internet Service Provider. The purpose of collecting usage information is to better understand how visitors use the website in order to improve our website's usability.

Holly chatbot: On certain web pages we have deployed an AI-based chatbot widget to assist with enquiries about studying at Durham.

Advertising

We sometimes use Google AdWords Remarketing pixels to assist with our marketing and delivery of online advertising across the Internet, in particular on the Google Display Network. By better understanding what our audiences are interested in, we can more efficiently promote the University. The technology to do this is made possible by cookies and as such we may place a "remarketing cookie" during your visit.


AdWords remarketing will display ads to you based on what parts of the Durham website you have viewed by placing a cookie on your web browser. This cookie does not in any way identify you or give access to your computer or mobile device. The cookie is used to indicate to other websites that "This person visited a particular page, so show them ads relating to that page." This way we can show you ads that are personalised to you.
