Cookie policy
Last updated: November 2024
We’re serious about handling your data responsibly. Here’s everything you need to know about how we use cookies.
Which cookies do we use?
You’ll find these cookies at Greenpeace’s website:
Strictly necessary cookies. Our website won’t work properly without these. They’re the kinds of cookies that mean you can log in, sign a petition or make a donation to keep our planet safe.
Analytical/performance cookies. These help us to keep improving. They show things like how many people visit each page and how visitors move around. We then use that information to make sure everything is well-structured and easy to find. These cookies work by collecting combined statistics, rather than showing what each visitor does. In other words, there is no identifiable information within these cookies.
Functionality cookies. These help us do things like personalise content, greet you by name, remember where you are and generally show you how much you matter. Greenpeace isn’t Greenpeace without you.
Advertising, tracking and targeting cookies. Cookies like these help us understand more about your visit to our site. By showing us what you do – like visiting pages, clicking links and watching videos – they help us show you relevant content and ads. These cookies might mean you can be identified at other websites, and we may also share information from these cookies with third parties.
Third party cookies. Our website might contain elements from other websites – like videos and social media posts – that use cookies. These cookies might mean you can be tracked at different websites and over time. We don’t have control over how third parties use cookies or share your information. It’s a good idea to review the other sites’ cookie policies before letting us know you’re happy with these cookies.
Check out the cookie table below to find out more about all the first-party and third-party cookies at our site.
Where is data stored?
The cookies we use might lead to personal data being processed, stored or transferred in countries other than the UK, where privacy laws are different. By telling us you’re OK with cookies being used, you’re consenting to this happening. You can read each third-party cookie provider’s policies to find out how they use your data.
Updating our policy
We’ll update this cookie policy if we make changes to the way we use cookies. If they’re big changes, we might also ask you to give us your cookie consent again.
