General information on cookies
When you access The Farewell Guide ( a site or mobile app operated by The Farewell Guide Limted) or use one of our services, our system or that of one of our partners may set or read cookies and / or other types of identifiers about the browser and / or device you are using.
A cookie is a small text file that is stored on the computer of anyone viewing a website in order to record some information related to the visit as well as to create a system to recognize the user even at later times. Device identifiers, on the other hand, are generated by collecting and processing some information such as the IP address and / or the user agent (browser version, type and version of the operating system) or other characteristics of the device, always in order to reconnect certain information to a specific user.
A website can set a cookie on the browser only if the preferences configured for the latter allow it. It is important to know that a browser can allow a particular website to access only and exclusively the cookies set by it and not those set by other websites: there is no risk to your privacy in this sense.
