What are cookies?
We use cookies to track how you interact with our content and improve your online experience (s). Some cookies remember your language or preferences so you don’t have to enter them every time you visit one of our sites. Cookies also help us track your location to show you the nearest RaceAgainstWaste station or office. Cookies also enable us to serve you specific content like videos on our website (s). We may use data from our websites to target you with targeted ads on third-party websites to “re-market” our products and services.
Which cookies do we use?
Third-Party Cookies
Our website uses first-party and third-party cookies.
They are used to identify language and location preferences and to provide basic site functionality.
Third-party cookies are set and managed by parties other than RaceAgainstWaste. For example, cookies may be required to submit job applications or to display advertising outside the RaceAgainstWaste website.
Cookie Session

Sticky Cookies

We use these cookies to track user behaviour and improve our website’s functionality for you and other users (s).

How are cookies used for marketing?
Ad technology like web beacons, pixels, and anonymous ad network tags help us serve you more relevant ads. Also, they help us collect aggregated audit data for advertisers. Pixels help us understand how to better deliver ads to you and track which ads you’ve seen. This means that ad networks can view, edit, or set their own cookies just like you could if you requested a web page from their site.
In order to show you relevant, interest-based advertising, we do not use cookies to create a profile of your browsing behaviour on third-party sites. We do not sell or rent your personal information to advertisers. Adjust your cookie settings to disable off-site and third-party-informed advertising. Opting out will not remove advertising from the pages you visit, but will cause the ads to be less relevant to your interests. Those cookies will not match the ads you see to your interests.
Uses of third-party cookies
Some functions on our websites rely on third-party suppliers, like when you visit a page with YouTube videos embedded or linked. Third party cookies may be used in these videos or links. Please review the privacy policies of these third-party vendors on their websites for more information.
