Cookies can either be ‘session cookies’, where they are deleted after each visit, or ‘persistent cookies’, which will remain on your computer for a longer, defined period specified in the cookie. We use both session and persistent cookies and the detailed lists below note whether cookies are session cookies, or provide their duration, in the case of persistent cookies.

How we might use your information if you visit our website
We may collect information about your computer, including where available your IP address, operating system and browser type, for system administration. This is statistical data about browsing actions and patterns and does not identify any individual.
We log the IP address of the computer you are using in order to protect our servers against abuse and malicious activity. The logs are deleted every 60 days. Other information is used to measure the performance of the website, the volume of traffic that the site receives, how users move around the site and what sort of users the site attracts. This is statistical data that help us identify actions and patterns and does not identify any individual.
When you access our website, some cookies are saved to your computer, for example if you have chosen a particular language setting or created a user account.
Cookies enable us to:
- estimate our audience size and usage pattern.
- store information about your preferences, and so allow us to customise our site according to your individual interests; and
- recognise you when you return to our site.
We use cookies to enhance the experience of the website, to increase the performance, to identify how the website is being used and where we can make improvements and to monitor how our advertisements perform.
Analytics
Our website uses two analytics services, Hotjar and Google Analytics.
We use Hotjar, a service that analyses the online behaviour of visitors to our website.
It uses a combination of analysis tools and feedback tools that allow Hotjar and ShelterBox to measure and observe what you do on our site and hear what you have to say. This site uses a tracking code which contacts Hotjar’s servers and provides a script to the computer or device accessing our website. The script captures non-personal information including standard internet log information and details of your behavioural patterns on the site. This information is then sent to Hotjar’s servers for processing. When collecting data with Recordings, Hotjar also has various automated suppression features in place and data is suppressed in your browser, meaning personally identifiable information never reaches our servers keeping your session private.
We use this tool to provide you with a better experience, identify preferences, diagnose technical problems, analyse trends and generally to improve the website. You can opt out from Hotjar here.
We also use Google Analytics, a web analytics service provided by Google, Inc. (“Google”), which uses “cookies” to help us analyse how users use the site. The information generated by the cookie about your use of the website (including your IP address) will be transmitted to and stored by Google on servers in the United States. Google will use this information for the purpose of evaluating your use of our website, compiling reports on website activity and providing other services relating to website activity and internet usage.
Google may also transfer this information to third parties if required to do so by law, or where such third parties process the information on Google’s behalf. Google will not associate your IP address with any other data held by Google. By using this website, you consent to the processing of data about you by Google in the manner and for the purposes set out above. For more details, please read Google’s Analytics overview.
We use this tool to provide you with a better experience, identify preferences, diagnose technical problems, analyse trends and generally to improve the website. You can always opt-out of Google Analytics cookies by using Google’s opt-out tool.
Other information that might be collected:
- information that you provide by filling in forms on our site www.shelterbox.org. This includes information provided at the time you sign up for our newsletter. We may also ask you for information when you report a problem with our site;
