Motability Lifestyle (motabilitylifestyle.com) is a Motability Foundation and Motability Enterprises Limited website, published and operated by Wonderly, a division of Haymarket Media Group Limited.

The aim of this Cookie Notice is to provide you with information about cookies and other tracking technologies used on this website.

Some cookies used on our site may involve the processing of personal data, such as IP addresses or browsing behaviour. For details about how we safeguard personal data, your rights under the UK GDPR, and our legal bases for processing, please refer to our Privacy Policy

What are cookies?

Cookies

A "cookie" is a small text file that a website stores on a user's device (like a computer or smartphone) to remember information about them. These files allow us to recognise repeat visitors and personalise your experience. Cookies can store things like login information, preferences, or items in a shopping cart.

Flash Cookies

Flash cookies, also known as Local Shared Objects (LSOs), are data files stored on a user's computer by websites using Adobe Flash Player. They store information about user preferences, settings, and browsing behaviour related to Flash-based content. Unlike regular browser cookies, Flash cookies are stored outside the browser's cookie folder.

Web Beacons

A web beacon is a small, typically invisible graphic or piece of code placed on a webpage or in an email to track user activity. We use them in our HTML-based emails to learn which emails have been opened by recipients enabling us to gauge the effectiveness of our marketing campaigns.

What are cookies used for?

Types of cookies

Cookies can be classified by how long they last and by the domain they are set by. This section explains the different types of cookies we use on this website and what each one does.

• Session Cookies are temporary files stored in your computer's memory while you are visiting a website. They are deleted automatically when you close your browser.

• Persistent Cookies are stored on your computer for a set period. They are used to determine if your computer has previously interacted with this website.

There are also two ways cookies can be set on our websites:

• First-Party Cookies are set by the website domain you are currently visiting (or a subdomain of it).

• Third-Party Cookies are set by a domain other than the one you are visiting, such as by one of our advertising technology partners or by external web services.

Cookie Classification

We categorise cookies set on this website into the following categories:

Strictly Necessary Cookies

These cookies are essential for the fundamental operation of our website, enabling you to navigate the site and utilise its core features, such as accessing secure areas and submitting forms. They are typically set only in response to actions you take that amount to a request for a service (e.g., setting your privacy preferences, logging in, or filling out forms). Without these cookies, services you have specifically requested cannot be provided. They do not gather any information about you that could be used for marketing or for tracking your browsing activity on other websites.

Performance Cookies

These cookies collect information about how visitors use our website, allowing us to analyse traffic sources and measure performance. They help us understand which pages are the most popular and how visitors move around the site. We use this information to improve the functionality of our website and enhance your browsing experience. If you do not allow these cookies, we will be unable to monitor our site's performance and make necessary improvements.

Functionality Cookies

Functionality cookies allow our website to remember choices you have made, such as your username, language, or the region you are in, to provide an enhanced and more personalised browsing experience. They may be set by us or by third-party providers whose services have been integrated into our pages. These cookies can be used to remember login details, changes to text size and font, or to provide services you have requested, such as playing a video or providing search services. If you do not allow these cookies, some or all of these enhanced services may not function properly. The information they collect is not used to track your browsing activity on other websites.

Targeting and Advertising Cookies

These cookies are used to display advertisements that are more relevant to you and your interests. They are set through our site by us, our advertising partners, or other third-party advertisers. They work by building a profile of your interests and may be used to display relevant adverts on our site as well as other websites you visit. These cookies also help us and our advertising partners to measure the effectiveness of advertising campaigns. If you do not allow these cookies, the online advertisements you encounter will be less tailored to your interests.

Your control options

Consent management

When you use one of our websites for the first time, a consent management platform (CMP) will be displayed to provide transparency and genuine choice. It will inform you about the use of cookies and similar technologies on this website, how these are stored and accessed on your device, and to provide you with control over how they are used.

This website’s CMP allows you to control the types of cookies being used based on the broad cookie classifications listed above.

You can also choose to accept or decline cookies by adjusting your web browser settings. To learn how to manage your cookie preferences directly in your browser, please consult the "Help" menu of your specific browser. Please be aware that if you choose to disable cookies, some of the features and functionality of our website may not work correctly, and your overall experience could be affected.

Using Private Browsing Modes

Most web browsers offer a "private browsing" or "incognito" mode. While this can help manage your privacy for a single session by not saving your browsing history, it does not prevent all cookies from being set by the websites you visit.

Here are some of the most common private browsing modes:

“Privacy Browsing” in Firefox
“Incognito” Browsing in Chrome
“InPrivate” Browsing in Microsoft Edge
“Private Browsing” in Safari

Do Not Track Signals

We currently do not respond to web browsers Do Not Track but will continue to review the Do Not Track concept and may adopt a standard once available. If we do so in the future, we will provide all relevant information in this policy.
