Nazare Cookie Policy

This Cookie Policy explains how cookies and similar technologies are used when you visit the Nazare website or use the Nazare platform.

Nazare is operated by Deploy Software Ltd, a company registered in England and Wales under company number 17186249, with its registered office at 167–169 Great Portland Street, 5th Floor, London, England, W1W 5PF.

This Cookie Policy should be read together with our Privacy Notice.

1. What are cookies?

Cookies are small files or pieces of information that may be stored on your device when you visit a website or use an online service.

Cookies can help websites and platforms:

• recognise your device;
• keep you signed in;
• remember settings or preferences;
• provide security and authentication;
• understand how a website or platform is being used; and
• support analytics or other online functionality.

Similar technologies may also be used, including local storage, pixels, scripts, tags or other technologies that store or access information on your device.

UK rules governing these technologies are primarily contained in the Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulations, alongside UK data protection law where personal information is involved. ICO

2. How Nazare uses cookies and similar technologies

Nazare may use cookies and similar technologies across:

• the public Nazare website;
• the Nazare candidate platform;
• account login and authentication;
• platform security;
• user preferences;
• analytics; and
• other functionality required to provide and improve Nazare.

The technologies actually used may change as the website and platform develop.

You can view and manage the current technologies in use through Cookie Settings.

3. Categories of cookies and similar technologies

Nazare may use the following categories.

Strictly necessary

These technologies are necessary for the operation, security or functionality of the website or platform.

They may be used for purposes such as:

• keeping you securely signed in;
• maintaining an account session;
• protecting against fraud or misuse;
• remembering privacy or cookie choices;
• operating essential website or platform features; and
• maintaining security.

Where a technology is strictly necessary to provide a service you have requested, consent is not required under the applicable UK rules. ICO

You cannot disable strictly necessary technologies through our cookie consent controls where they are required for the service to function.

Preferences and functionality

These technologies may be used to remember choices or adapt the appearance or functionality of Nazare.

This may include preferences such as:

• language;
• display settings;
• interface preferences; or
• other functionality choices.

Some uses may fall within an applicable legal exception. Where required, we will provide an appropriate means of consenting or objecting. Current ICO guidance recognises a specific exception for certain technologies used solely to adapt appearance or functionality to a user’s preference, subject to applicable conditions. ICO

Analytics

Analytics technologies help us understand how people use Nazare and how we can improve the website and platform.

For example, they may help us understand:

• how many people visit Nazare;
• which pages or features are used;
• how users move through the service;
• device or browser types;
• general website performance; and
• where technical or usability improvements may be needed.

UK law now includes a limited exception for certain technologies used solely to collect aggregate statistical information for improving an online service, provided the applicable conditions are met and users are given a simple and free way to object. Analytics that go beyond those limits may require consent. ICO

Nazare will obtain consent where required.

Advertising and marketing

If Nazare uses advertising, remarketing, conversion tracking or similar technologies, these may be used to:

• measure advertising performance;
• understand whether an advertisement resulted in a visit or action;
• create or use advertising audiences; or
• support advertising on third-party services.

Advertising and cross-service tracking do not fall within the statistical analytics exception and generally require consent before the relevant technology is used. ICO

Where Nazare uses these technologies, they will only be activated where the required consent has been obtained.

4. Consent and your choices

Where consent is required, Nazare will ask you to make a choice through our cookie consent controls.

Depending on the technologies currently in use, you may be able to:

Accept All
Allow all optional technologies.

Reject All
Reject optional technologies that require consent.

Manage Preferences
Choose which optional categories you want to allow.

Your decision to reject optional cookies will not prevent you from using essential Nazare functionality.

Where consent is required, it must be given through a clear positive action. Non-essential technologies that require consent should not be activated before valid consent has been obtained. ICO

5. Changing your preferences

You can change your choices at any time using the Cookie Settings link available on Nazare.

Where you withdraw consent, we will stop using the relevant technologies for future activity as required.

Withdrawal of consent should be as easy as giving consent. ICO

You can also control cookies through your browser settings. Most browsers allow you to:

• delete cookies;
• block cookies;
• block third-party cookies;
• clear cookies when you close your browser; or
• use private browsing features.

Browser settings may affect the way Nazare functions.

6. Current cookies and technologies

Because the exact cookies and similar technologies used by Nazare may change as the website and platform are updated, the most current list is provided through Cookie Settings.

Where applicable, Cookie Settings should show information including:

• the name of the cookie or technology;
• the provider;
• its purpose;
• its category;
• whether it is first-party or third-party; and
• how long it remains active.

The ICO expects organisations to know which cookies and similar technologies they use, what they do, whether they are first- or third-party and how long they last. ICO

7. Third-party technologies

Some technologies used on Nazare may be provided by third parties.

These may include providers of:

• analytics;
• authentication;
• hosting;
• security;
• embedded media;
• advertising; or
• other website or platform services.

Third parties may process information in accordance with their own privacy policies and terms.

Where applicable, the current third-party technologies used on Nazare are identified through Cookie Settings.

8. Cookies and logged-in accounts

When you use the Nazare platform while signed in, some technologies may be necessary to:

• authenticate your account;
• maintain your session;
• protect your account;
• provide requested platform functionality; and
• remember appropriate settings.

These technologies may be essential to provide the service you have requested.

Optional analytics, marketing or similar technologies remain subject to the applicable consent or objection requirements.

9. How long cookies last

Cookies may be:

Session cookies

These generally remain active only during your current browsing session and expire when the session ends.

Persistent cookies

These remain on your device for a specified period or until they are deleted.

The duration of a particular cookie depends on its purpose and provider.

Current retention or expiry information for the technologies in use should be available through Cookie Settings.

10. Personal information

Some cookies and similar technologies may involve the processing of personal information.

Where they do, our use of that information is also governed by the Nazare Privacy Notice and applicable UK data protection law.

The Privacy Notice explains:

• what personal information we collect;
• how we use it;
• the lawful bases we rely on;
• who we share it with;
• how long we retain it; and
• your data protection rights.

11. Changes to this Cookie Policy

We may update this Cookie Policy when:

• the Nazare website or platform changes;
• we introduce or remove technologies;
• providers change;
• our purposes change; or
• applicable law or regulatory guidance changes.

The latest version will be published on Nazare.

If we introduce a new technology or use an existing technology for a materially different purpose that requires consent, we will obtain fresh consent where required. ICO
