Cookies Policy

You can set your devices to accept all cookies, to notify you when a cookie is issued, or not to receive cookies at any time.

A cookie is a small text file containing an identifier (a string of letters and numbers) that is sent by a web server to a web browser and stored by the browser. The identifier is then sent back to the server each time the browser requests a page from the server.

Users have the opportunity to set their devices to accept all cookies, to notify them when a cookie is issued, or not to receive cookies at any time.

The last of these, means that certain personalised features cannot then be provided to that user and accordingly they may not be able to take full advantage of all of the website's features. Each browser is different, so check the "Help" menu of your browser to learn how to change your cookie preferences.

How we use cookies

During the course of any visit to the Securitas website, the pages you see, along with any cookies, are downloaded to your device. Many websites do this, because cookies enable website publishers to do useful things like find out whether the device (and probably its user) has visited the website before. This is done on a repeat visit by examining any cookie left there on the last visit.

In order to be able to provide relevant information to our visitors, we need aggregated statistical visitor data that is collected by means of cookies.

Managing your cookies

Securitas will not use cookies to collect personally identifiable information about you. However, if you wish to restrict or block the cookies which are set by the Securitas website, or indeed any other website, you can do this through your browser settings. The Help function within your browser should tell you how.

Alternatively, you may wish to visit www.aboutcookies.org/, which contains comprehensive information on how to do this on a wide variety of browsers.
You will also find details on how to delete cookies from your computer as well as more general information about cookies. For information on how to do this on the browser of your mobile phone you will need to refer to your handset manual.
