CJ WildBird Foods Ltd Cookie Policy
What are cookies?
Cookies are small text files stored on your computer, tablet or phone when you visit a website (provided you agree to accept them). To improve the way we serve you and make it a more personal experience, CJ uses cookies and similar techniques on its websites; hereinafter 'cookies'. This allows CJ to track your browsing behaviour on our site(s). Based on this, we can offer services which match your needs or interests, and which optimise our websites. This policy sets out which cookies we might set and what their function is.
There are various types of cookies:
Functional cookies
- Functional cookies are necessary for our websites to work. They cannot therefore be rejected. These cookies help us recognise your language or country, tell whether you are visiting our website from a PC, tablet or phone, and help tailor your user experience accordingly. One cookie also reminds us whether you have consented to other non-essential cookies being set. We use them to make your browsing and purchasing experience easier. They allow items to be stored in your online shopping basket while navigating from one page to page another. Without this cookie, your basket would empty when you visit another page on the site.
Analytical cookies
- How you use our site is analysed through analytical cookies, such as Google Analytics. Visits to the website are recorded under a unique (but anonymised) ID, which allows us to recognise you as a new or returning visitor. These cookies enable us to measure the effectiveness of the website and the information displayed; we do not look at individual browsing behaviour. We use this information to try to make continuous improvements to the website. We set these cookies so they have only minor implications in terms of privacy. We do not therefore need to ask permission. They are stored each time you visit.
- We use the Google Analytics cookie to track how our website is used. Among other things, Google Analytics provides insight into how visitors arrived at the website, which web pages people visited and the average time spent on the website.
Marketing and personalisation cookies
- CJ uses cookies to make its websites more relevant by tailoring content to our visitors' interests. These types of cookies are also known as tracking cookies. We place ads through the Google and Facebook platforms. These include channels such as YouTube and Instagram. Through cookies, we can provide information which is relevant to people who have previously shown an interest in our services or jobs on other websites or apps. We can also use marketing cookies to measure and analyse use history. For details, see the "Details of services" cookiebot. The ones we use include:
Double Click
- Double Click is Google's advertising technology which helps create, run and manage digital ads for buyers, video content creators and merchants. We use this cookie to improve the content of our online ads — to make them more relevant, for instance, or to prevent ads from being displayed too often.
Google Ads Conversion
- We use this cookie to track the performance of our ads shown in the Google search engine.
Google Tag Manager
- This cookie allows us to manage all other Google services on the site. This allows new content to be posted to the website without having to roll out a whole new version.

If you choose not to accept these cookies, we will immediately delete the cookies that were automatically stored on your device.

What are cookies?
Cookies are small text files placed on your computer, tablet or phone by the website you are visiting (providing you agree to accept them). Generally, there are three different types of cookies:
- Session cookies:
- These are regarded as essential cookies and are often used by online shops to make your browsing and purchasing experience easier. They allow you to keep items in your basket when shopping online as you move from page to page. Without them, your basket would empty every time you view a different page on the site. Some sites, such as online banking maintain security with session cookies. You will not normally be asked for your permission to allow session cookies to be placed on your online device, as they are temporary files that do not store or locate your personal information. Session cookies automatically cease to exist when your browsing session with that webshop ends.
- Permanent or Persistent cookies:
- These are regarded as non-essential cookies. If you decide to allow these cookies, depending on their purpose, they can remain in operation after you have closed the browsing session. Their purposes can be to remember your login details and password, so you don’t have to type them in every time you visit the site (we do not use these), or to remember your ‘wish list’ for products you do not require immediately but wish us to remember for you (we do use these). Permanent or Persistent cookies are usually set to auto expire after a certain period of time, so for example, if you do not visit our site for a period of 1 month, any permanent or persistent cookies that we have placed on your online device will automatically cease to exist.
- Third-party cookies:
- These are regarded as non-essential cookies, installed by third parties such as Google Analytics and TradeTracker.com with the purpose of collecting information to help us understand visitor trends and identify service improvements. They also allow us to reward referral sites fairly. They can be used for anonymous profiling and in some cases will process your device’s unique internet protocol (IP) address, for analytical purposes. Although we only allow carefully considered 3rd parties to place their cookies on your device, you should be aware that these cookies can be permanent or persistent and might be able to identify you.

Unless your browser is set up to prevent cookies, when you visit our webshop, your device will automatically receive one or several cookies, which are transferred from this webshop or 3rd party domains to your internet browser. The first time you visit our webshop, you will be asked to accept or reject cookies. If you reject them, the cookies already loaded onto your device will expire immediately. If you decide to browse without making a decision, cookies will be set but you can change this at any time by adapting your consent below.
For more information on cookies and how to manage and delete them, you can visit the ICO website.
