EQT Cookie Notice
This cookie notice ("Notice") is provided by EQT AB and the other entities listed in Schedule 1, and throughout this Notice, all references to "EQT", "we", "us" or "our" refers to any and all of those entities, and any other affiliated entities from time to time.
When we refer to “you” we mean you as a user or visitor of our website (https://eqtgroup.com) including our sub-domains (together, the "Website").
In this Notice you can read about how we use cookies and similar technology, the types of cookies we use, for how long they work and for what purposes they are used, how to change your cookie settings and opt-out, and who are we and how can you contact us. For more information about privacy and how we process personal data more generally, including in respect of our use of cookies which may involve the processing of your personal data, please see our Privacy Notice here.
What do I need to know about cookies?
There are different types of cookies and they are used for different purposes.
Below you can read about what a cookie is, the difference between first and third party cookies and session cookies vs. persistent cookies and what types of cookies we use on our website and why.
What is a cookie?
A cookie is a small piece of data that a website stores on your device when you visit it and which is then read when you later revisit the site. The use of the word "cookies" in this Notice and any consent you provide to our use of "cookies" also refers to other forms of automatic collection of data, for example, flash-cookies (Local Shared Objects), Web Storage (HTML5), Javascripts or similar technology placed by other software.
A cookie may contain information about the website itself, a unique identifier that allows the site to recognise your web browser when you return to the website, additional data that serves the purpose of the cookie and the lifespan of the cookie itself.
The word "cookies" or "cookie data" also covers information about IP and MAC addresses and other information about your device collected by said technologies.
We use cookies in order to make our Website operate as intended, work more efficiently, and to provide us with information. Cookies are used to enable certain features (e.g. logging in), to track site usage (e.g. analytics), to store your user settings (e.g. timezone, notification preferences), and to personalise your content (e.g. advertising, language).
Who are the cookies set by?
EQT and third parties providing services to EQT use cookies to assess the ways in which you make use of the Website. For example, we may engage third parties to assist with maintenance, operation, creation or functionality of our Website, e.g. analytics providers and content partners. We grant these third parties’ access to selected information to perform specific tasks on our behalf. In addition, cookies set by other third parties on certain websites can be used to track you on other websites that use the same third-party service (which may include the Website).
This means that the Website uses two types of cookies:
- First party cookies. These are cookies that are set by the Website and only EQT can access and read these cookies.
- Third party cookies. These are set by third parties on the Website. For example, some pages feature content from other sites like YouTube. YouTube may set their own cookies on your browser when you play the video from YouTube.
We recommend reading the provider's privacy policy which can be found through links in the tables below, where you can also see which cookies on our Website are first party cookies and third-party cookies.
Lifespan of cookies
The lifespan of cookies depends on whether the cookie is a persistent cookie or a session cookie, as follows:
- Session cookies. These cookies only last as long as your online session. This means that they will disappear from your computer or device when you close your browser. They are therefore also sometimes referred to as temporary cookies. Typically, session cookies are used to remember what a user put in their basket when they are browsing a website.
- Persistent cookies. These cookies are sometimes called permanent cookies. They will stay on your computer or device after you close your browser. These types of cookies will expire according to the time specified in the cookie. You can see the specific duration of each persistent cookie below.
Use of cookies
We use the following cookies on the Website:
How to accept and reject cookies
As part of our cookie solution, we always ask for your consent to cookies, except for necessary cookies, before placing cookies on your device. When you first enter our Website, you will be shown a pop-up cookie notification banner. The banner informs you that our Website uses cookies and similar technologies and gives you details and options around the use of cookies.
We also always give you the option to change your consent. If you at one point gave consent to non-necessary cookies on our Website, you can always change which cookies you will give consent to. Just look for the shield on our website. If you press the shield, your cookie settings will appear, allowing you to always change your settings. You can also click on the "change your consent" link below to change your settings.
It's also possible to instruct your browser to refuse cookies from our website. Most browsers are configured to accept cookies by default, but you can update these settings to either refuse cookies altogether, or to notify you when a website is trying to set or update a cookie. If you use multiple browsers and wish to block cookies or change or withdraw your consent, remember to do this in all browsers.
If you browse websites from multiple devices, you may also need to update your settings on each individual device.
Although some cookies can be blocked with little impact on your experience of the Website, blocking all cookies may mean you are unable to access certain features and content on the Website.
