This Cookie Policy sets out the basis on which we Howe Baker International LLC use cookies and similar technologies on or in relation to our website, www.Howe Baker.com. This Cookies Policy came into effect on 21st May 2018.

We only employ cookies to deliver a smooth experience to our website visitors and to understand how visitors use our websites. We do this because we want you to have a great experience browsing our website, so we can provide you with relevant content and so that we can continually improve the service we provide you.

This means that we DON’T identify you personally as a user of our website, and we DON’T use cookies to target you with advertising.

You can decide whether to accept or reject cookies from us – it’s your choice.

What is a cookie?

Cookies are small text files that websites may place on your computer, mobile device or tablet. They’re used to remember what you have done on a website to improve your browsing experience, helping a user navigate a website, improving that user’s website experience, and storing that user’s preferences and login information.

Different types of cookies

There are four categories of cookies:

Session Cookies: these track your actions and expire once you close your browser.

Persistent Cookies: these track your actions and do not expire once your browser has closed and can track your actions over multiple sites.

First Party Cookies: cookies from the site you have visited.

Third Party Cookies: cookies from 3rd party sites come through sites you’ve visited but not from the owner of the site, such as adverts.

A first party cookie from this website is a cookie that is given to your device by our domain. A first party cookie differs from a session cookie in that the cookie itself stores a file on your computer or device rather than in your browser. By storing the cookie outside the browser, the cookie can retain data after the browser has closed and that can be used when you next visit our site.

How to accept or reject cookies

There are several different ways in which you can accept or reject some or all cookies. You are welcome to block the use of some or all the cookies we use on our website. (Please note some of the functionality of our website will be lost if you delete all cookies.)

You can set your browser either to reject all cookies, to only allow “trusted” sites to set them, or to accept only those cookies from those websites which you are using at that moment.

All the ‘popular’ browsers allow you to change your cookie settings. These settings are usually found in the ‘options’ or ‘preferences’ menu of your browser.
