Illovo Sugar Africa - Cookie Policy

We use cookies to distinguish you from other users of our Website, to provide you with a better user experience and to improve our Website. This cookie policy provides you with information about the types of cookies we use and the purposes for using them.

What are cookies?

A cookie is a data file, which often includes a unique identifier, that is sent to your browser from a web server and is then stored on the hard drive of the device you are using to browse the website. Each website you visit can send its own cookie to your browser if your browser’s preferences allow it, but to protect your privacy your browser only permits a website to access cookies it has already sent to you, not cookies sent to you by other sites.

Cookies help us to improve our Website  and to deliver a better and more personalised service, for example by storing information about your preferences and allowing us to recognise you when you return to our Website.

You have the opportunity to set your devices to accept all cookies, to notify them when a cookie is issued, or not to receive cookies at any time. Each browser is different, so check the ‘Help’ menu of your browser to learn how to change your cookie preferences. Please be aware that blocking cookies may affect the functionality of the website.

These cookies can also be used to remember changes you have made to text size, fonts and other parts of web pages that you can customise. They may also be used to provide services you have asked for such as watching a video. The information these cookies collect may be anonymised and they cannot track your browsing activity on other websites.
