Collecting and using your data

Giving us your data by filling in a form

If you fill in a form on our website or partner site you are giving your data to the 绿茶直播 to process.

Each form has its own privacy statement which outlines exactly the purpose of the data collection, how the 绿茶直播 will process it and how long the 绿茶直播 will retain the data. It is important that you take the time to read these privacy statements so that you fully understand the context in which you are providing your data to us, and are informed how to exercise your data subject rights.

Data collected by browsing our website

We use various analytics packages and other tools to assess and monitor how people use our website in order to ensure that we can develop it to be the best possible experience for our users. Anonymised web analytics are shared with some partner organisations.

In addition to our existing analytics tools, we use Adalyser tracking to measure the performance and effectiveness of our TV advertising campaigns.

This involves collecting data about user sessions, interactions, traffic sources, device categories, and conversion events. The data collected through Adalyser helps us link downstream user actions back to the initiating session for accurate advertising attribution.

In order for these tools to work, they set a number of cookies on the machines of people browsing our website. In addition if we display content for third party platforms (for example a YouTube video), these third parties will set their own cookies, some of which may contain analytics and targeting cookies.

We take your ability to control the cookies set on our website seriously, and have provided a tool which allows you to decide which cookies you would like set. In some cases, there are cookies that we need to set in order for our website to function properly and also to remember the choices that you have made about your preferences and cookie settings – such cookies cannot be disabled as they are strictly necessary.

Please note that if you visited our site prior to 23 May 2018 before the cookie tool was enabled on our site, cookies may have already been set. If this is the case and you wish to clear those cookies (we are unable to remove them retrospectively), please find instructions below on how they can be manually removed.

This privacy statement applies to all university websites that link to this page.

Please note that some sites related to the university may collect and use data differently. These sites will have a local privacy policy explaining these practices.

If the user leaves a university website and visits a website operated by a third party, the 绿茶直播 cannot be held responsible for the protection and privacy of any information that users provide when visiting such third-party websites. Accordingly, users should exercise caution and review the privacy statement applicable to the website in question.
