INFORMATION ABOUT OUR USE OF COOKIES AND TRACKING TECHNOLOGIES
Our website (www.festivalofkingisland.com.au) uses cookies and other similar technologies (as described below) to distinguish you from other users of our website. This helps us provide you with a good experience when you browse our website, allows us to improve our services, and deliver tailored content and advertising.

A cookie is a small file of letters and numbers that we store on your browser or the hard drive of your computer (if you agree). Cookies contain information that is transferred to your computer’s hard drive. You can find more information about the types of cookies we use and the purposes for which we use them in the table below:

Strictly Necessary
These cookies are essential to enable you to browse our website and use its features. The information collected by these cookies relates to the operation of the website—for example, website scripting language and security tokens to maintain secure areas of the website.

Performance Analytics
These cookies collect anonymous information about how you use our website—for example, which pages you visit most often, whether you receive error messages, and how you arrived at the website. Information collected by these cookies is only used to improve your experience and never to identify you. These cookies may be placed by third-party providers of web traffic analysis services, such as Google Analytics.

Functionality
These cookies remember choices you make—for example, your country, language preferences, and any changes you’ve made to text size or other parts of the site you can customise. They improve your experience and help make your visits more enjoyable. The information these cookies collect may be anonymised and cannot be used to track your activity on other websites.

Targeting or Advertising
These cookies allow you to share what you’ve been doing on our website with social media platforms like Facebook or Twitter. These cookies are not within our control. Please refer to the privacy policies of these organisations to understand how their cookies work. Please note that third parties (including, for example, advertising networks and providers of external services like web traffic analysis) may also use cookies, over which we have no control. These cookies are likely to be analytical/performance or targeting cookies.

How We May Use Cookies:
We may use cookies to:

• Collect anonymised data on user behaviour across our website.
• Understand what website you came from and what site you go to next, along with general demographic data (e.g. your location).
• Categorise users (on an anonymised basis) by demographics and/or behaviours, and target advertising to these segments on third-party websites.
• Allow advertising partners to target their content to our audience groups, either through advertising space purchased by Festival of King Island, or by third parties who have access to anonymised data segments we have made available.

Advertising Cookies and Google AdSense
Some parts of our website may use Google AdSense to display advertisements. When you view or click on an advert, a cookie may be set to help serve you more relevant ads on this and other websites. You can opt out of Google AdSense cookies by visiting:

WEB BEACONS
We, or our third-party partners, may use web beacons (also known as clear gifs, pixels, or web bugs) to track how users engage with our content. For example, they help count how many users have visited certain pages or interacted with emails. These tiny graphics work similarly to cookies, but are embedded invisibly on web pages or in emails.

Unlike cookies, web beacons are not stored on your device. They may, however, be linked to other information we collect about you to better understand your engagement.
