What are cookies?

Cookies are small text files that are used to store small pieces of information. When a website loads on your browser, your device stores them. These cookies help make a website function properly, make it more secure and provide a better user experience. Certain types of cookie can also help an owner understand how their website performs, what works, and what can be improved.

How do we use cookies?

Our website uses two main categories of cookies. We use first-party cookies, which are provided directly by our website, fairsquarellp.com. These are mostly necessary for our site to function in the right way. First-party cookies do not collect any of your personally identifiable data.

We also use third-party cookies, provided by Google Analytics, and CookieYes. CookieYes is a SAAS service we use to manage and track cookies and visitor consent. These cookies help keep our website secure, track how it performs and how visitors use it, and help provide a good user experience.

What types of cookies do we use?

Necessary: We use some cookies that are essential for you to be able to experience the full functionality of our site. They allow us to maintain user sessions and prevent any security threats. They do not collect or store any personal information. We also use some cookies that are non-necessary.

Cookies, whether they are necessary or not, can be also be categorised in various other ways, including by purpose. The main purpose-led categories are: Analytics, Functional, Preference and Marketing.

Analytics: These cookies store information like the number of visitors to the website, the number of unique visitors, which pages of the website have been visited, the source of the visit, etc. These cookies (also known as statistics or performance cookies) are generally non-essential. However, the data they gather helps us understand and analyse how well our website is performing and where we could improve it.

Functional: These are cookies that help websites to function, and are non-essential. These include things like sharing website content on social media platforms, and embedding content, e.g. videos, etc. You therefore don’t have to accept these types of cookie, but if you don’t, then bits of a website might not work as you expect.

We auto-block the following functional cookies unless and until you consent:

  • Official Facebook Pixel
  • Smash Balloon Instagram Feed
  • Smash Balloon Twitter Feed
  • Google Analytics for WordPress by MonsterInsights

Preference: These cookies help us store settings and browsing preferences like your cookie preference so that you have a better and efficient experience on future visits.

Marketing – not used: We don’t use any marketing cookies, as our website does not display third party advertisements. But other sites that do have them use these types of third-party cookie to personalise the ads that they show and help ensure they are relevant. Marketing cookies are also known as “Advertisement” cookies.

Here is a list detailing the cookies we use in our website.
