How this website uses cookies and similar technologies
This web site is intended to provide general information from the professional services and solutions provided by the Carbon and Energy Professionals New Zealand.
We gather information from users of this web site automatically and when you decide to provide us with information, for example, when you complete a form on www.cep.org.nz. This information is treated with confidence and is only used by CEP within the terms of the Privacy Policy.
We may use “cookies” to keep, and sometimes track, information about you.
Cookies are small text files which are downloaded to your computer or mobile device when you visit a web site or application. Your web browser (such as Internet Explorer, Mozilla Firefox or Google Chrome) then sends these cookies back to the web site or application on each subsequent visit so that they can recognise you and remember things like personalised details or user preferences. Cookies do not damage your system. You can reset your browser to refuse any cookie or to alert to when a cookie is being sent.
To improve your experience and to make our service to you better, we use cookies for the purposes of system administration and analytics of our web site. This gives us information about the number of visitors to different parts of our web site.
CEP does not share this data with third parties. Our cookies do not store sensitive information such as your name or address, they just enable us to see behaviour on the web site to help us improve your experience. However, if you’d prefer to restrict, block or delete cookies from www.cep.org.nz, or any other web site, you can use your browser to do this. Each browser is different, so check the ‘Help’ menu of your particular browser (or your mobile phone’s handset manual) to learn how to change your cookie preferences.
How to control my cookies
There are various ways you can control and manage your cookies which are discussed in a bit more detail below. Please remember that any settings you change will not just affect www.cep.org.nz cookies. These changes will apply to all web sites that you visit (unless you choose to block cookies from particular web sites).
Managing cookies in my browser
Most modern browsers will allow you to:
- See what cookies you’ve got and delete them on an individual basis
- Block third party cookies
- Block cookies from particular web sites
- Block all cookies from being set
- Delete all cookies when you close your browser
You should be aware that any preferences will be lost if you delete cookies. This includes where you have opted out from cookies, as this requires an opt-out cookie to be set. Also, if you block cookies completely many web sites will not work properly and some functionality on these web sites will not work at all.
Managing analytics cookies
It is possible to opt out of having your anonymised browsing activity within web sites recorded by analytics cookies. www.cep.org.nz uses Google Analytics and you can opt out of their cookies by visiting the Google Analytics opt-out page. Please note that this will take you to Google Analytics’ web site and generate a ‘no thanks’ cookie, which will stop any further cookies being set by those third parties.
