Cookies Policy

This notice is intended to give you more information about how GO EXPLORE RADIO (the publisher of this website) uses cookies.

GO EXPLORE RADIO regularly reviews this Cookie Notice to ensure it reflects the technology we use on our websites.

What are Cookies?

Each cookie is unique to your web browser and contains anonymous information such as a unique identifier, site name, and some digits or numbers. Cookies allow a website to remember your preferences, such as what’s in your shopping basket.

To place cookies, tags, or other tracking technologies on your device, we need your permission. We do this by showing you a clear notice through our consent management platform. It explains why we use cookies and links to this policy. You’ll need to indicate your acceptance of our cookie usage. On a mobile device, this might be done by swiping a banner, pressing a button, or even using facial recognition.

You can opt out of cookie use at any time. For more information, see the “What to do if you want to control the use of Cookies” section.

How does Go Explore Radio use Cookies?

Cookies are widely used across websites to enhance user experience. At GO EXPLORE RADIO, we use cookies to improve our sites and provide a more personalised and interactive service.

GO EXPLORE RADIO also uses persistent cookies, which remain on your device even after you’ve gone offline.

When you visit our sites, we may check to see if you have a cookie ID, a unique identifier that lets us know who you are. We can then compare your cookie ID with those held by our advertisers to determine if they know you too. If so, advertisers can target you with specific ads they believe will be relevant based on your browsing habits.

GO EXPLORE RADIO uses various types of cookies throughout our websites, including:

Functionality

These are essential to the operation of our website. They include session cookies that allow you to perform key functions like keeping your login active or managing transactions. These cookies don’t track your browsing on other websites, and they expire when you close your browser. We don’t use functionality cookies to target you with ads on other sites.

Strictly Necessary

These cookies allow you to navigate our website and use its essential features, such as secure areas and shopping baskets. They don’t collect personal information or track your activity for marketing purposes.

Strictly necessary cookies are only active during your visit and won’t remember your preferences or username beyond that session.

Performance Cookies

These cookies collect anonymous information about how you use our website, such as which pages you visit. We use this data to improve site performance and understand user behaviour, but it does not identify you personally. These cookies won’t be used to target you with ads or store your preferences for future visits.

Targeting Cookies

Targeting cookies are linked to services provided by third parties. These cookies allow us to share information with advertising agencies so they can serve you personalised ads based on your activity on our site and others. We also allow certain advertising partners to set cookies that help them analyse campaign performance.

In addition, we may use cookies to deliver location-based ads or promotions based on the content you engage with across our websites and apps.

Third-Party Cookies

For more details, you can check the consent management platform or privacy settings link.

Third-Party Cookies for Advertising

Many of our websites display advertising, some of which is personalised to you using a process called “Online Behavioural Advertising.” This process uses cookies to collect general information about the pages you visit. It helps us keep many of our services free. The tracking system is anonymised, so it doesn’t know your identity or collect personal data like your name, email address, or postal code.

GO EXPLORE RADIO may share anonymised behavioural data with our advertising partners. This means that when you’re on other websites, you may be shown ads based on your activity on our websites or vice versa.

Behavioural retargeting is another form of Online Behavioural Advertising. It allows advertisers to show you ads based on the products you viewed but didn’t purchase on other websites. For example, if you visit a car dealership website, you may see ads for that dealership when you visit other websites, reminding you of their products or special offers.

If you choose to opt out of Online Behavioural Advertising, you’ll still see ads, but they won’t be personalised to your interests.

For more information on behavioural targeting and how to opt out, visit www.youronlinechoices.com or www.networkadvertising.org.

Our websites use JavaScript to detect ad blockers. We do not store any information on your device or process personal data in this process.

Third-party cookies for Tracking/User Analysis

GO EXPLORE RADIO uses third-party cookies, such as Google Analytics, to track how many unique users visit our websites and how often.

Other Third-Party Cookies

On some pages, third-party companies may set their cookies to track the success of their applications or to customise their services for you. We don’t have access to these cookies, nor do we have access to the data collected through cookies on our sites.

GO EXPLORE RADIO Marketing Cookies

These cookies are usually provided by approved partners or through our own systems and allow us to show you ads that may be more relevant to you. They track which ads you’ve seen and limit the number of times you see a specific ad. The data collected is anonymised, so the cookies do not know your identity.
