Unlike a cookie which is stored on your device, a pixel is a tiny snippet of code that collects multiple data points over different webpages and sites such as how you browse and what types of ads you click on. This tiny piece of code can be linked to users via a unique identifier. We use pixels as they help us to show you more relevant adverts based on your likes and behaviours. They also help us to measure how successful our marketing programme is, track conversions and build our audience base.
Our website includes Facebook, TikTok and Google Analytics pixels.
By consenting to marketing cookies, you are agreeing to the use of these pixels.
