Cookies

Our interactive tools use two session cookies, one (cookieenabledchecked) to allow the use to tick off completed tools in the end screen and the other for usage analysis and continuous improvement purposes.

We use the ‘showAd’ cookie so users can dismiss the reminder pop up (modal) windows within thepensionsregulator.gov.uk website. The dismiss functionality prevents the returning user from repeatedly seeing the pop up windows.

Our webinars are hosted by LiveGroup. All data is database driven.

If a webinar user selects remember me - a feature on many systems where you log in - this stores a cookie for when they return. This is not shared with anyone and is not used to track behaviour.
