This cookie statement relates to your use of the lotuscars.com (the “Website”) and/or the Lotus Cars application (the “Lotus Cars App”).
This cookie statement aims to explain how we use “cookies” and similar technologies (such as “web beacons”, “pixels” or “tags”) and gives you information on how we and our partners process, store and/or access data such as IP address, unique ID and browsing data based on your consent to provide enhanced functionality and personalisation, ad and content measurement, audience insights and product development, use precise geolocation data, and actively scan device characteristics for identification.
Sometimes we and/or our partners do not rely on your consent but rely on legitimate interest to process your data.
This cookie statement is designed to assist you in making informed decisions when using our Website and the Lotus Cars app. Please take a moment to read and understand this Cookie statement alongside our Privacy Notice and our Terms and Conditions.
Cookies are very small text files or pieces of code, which often include an unique identifier. When you visit a website, the website will request to store this text file on your device in order to remember information about you, such as your language preference or login information. Other information gathered through cookies may include the date and time of visits and how you are using the particular website or mobile application.
We also use similar technologies to cookies known as “web beacons”, “pixels” or “tags”. These technologies do a similar job to cookies, allowing website operators to count page views and understand how visitors interact with and respond to certain content on a webpage, email or apps.
We may also track your activity on our Lotus Car App through SDKs. SDKs are blocks of code provided by our partners that may be installed in our mobile applications. SDKs help us understand how you interact with our mobile applications and collect certain information about the device and network you use to access our applications, such as the advertising identifier associated with your device and information about how you interact with our applications.
For the purposes of the remaining sections of this Cookie Statement, we refer to all cookies and similar technologies using the above features as “cookies”. We use “first party cookies” and “third party cookies” in connection with our Website. First party cookies are cookies placed by us to collect information about you. Third party cookies are cookies placed by third party website operators. Information about you collected by those third-party cookies will be shared with the relevant third party. Please refer to the relevant third-party website operator’s privacy notice for more details about the information they collect and how they use it.
Please note that our Website or our Lotus Cars App may link to third party websites which are not operated by us. Where you follow links from our Website or our Lotus Cars App to the website of a third party, that website may place different cookies on your device. You should check the relevant privacy notice and/or cookie notice for more information about how that third party uses cookies.
You should be aware that applications you use to access our Website, such as your website browser, may also place cookies on your device when visiting our Website, or other websites. An example of this would be where you sign in to Google Chrome using a Google Account. We do not have control over these third party cookies, so you will need to manage these cookies in the settings of the relevant applications.
For more details on cookies and similar technologies, please visit All About Cookies.
All cookies have expiration dates that determine how long they stay in your browser:
Session Cookies – these are temporary cookies that are placed on your device during your browsing session and then expire (and are automatically erased) whenever you close your browser.
Persistent Cookies – these are designed to last for a pre-defined period of time, which varies depending on the nature of the cookie. Persistent cookies stay in your browser until they reach their individual expiry date, or until you manually delete them (see table below ).
There are various ways that you can manage your cookie preferences, but please be aware that in order to use some parts of our Website you will need to allow certain essential or functional cookies. If you block or subsequently delete those cookies, some aspects of our Website may not work properly, and you may not be able to access all or part of our Website.
Your options for managing your cookie preferences are set out below:
Through the Cookie Preference Centre found here:
When you access our Website or Lotus Cars App, we will ask you to provide consent for our use of non-essential cookies. We may repeat this request on subsequent visits to our Website, for example if you delete cookies from your browser or we need to request new consents from you.
When we seek your consent, you will either be able to provide consent for all non-essential cookies that we would like to use, or you can tailor your cookie preferences (provide consent for some but not all non-essential cookies) using our Cookie Preference Centre. You can also change your preferences and/or withdraw consent at any time by visiting our Cookie Preference Centre.
Just as a reminder, where cookies are essential to the operation of our Website, we can use these without your consent and they cannot be managed using our Cookie Preference Centre.
