We need to use them to maintain our site's effectiveness and ease of use and to improve how our website works, understand what interests our users or measure how effective certain features of our Website are. For example we use these to provide statistics on how our Website is used, to provide feedback to partners that one of our visitors also visited their website. This lets our partners improve their website, but we don't allow our partners to reuse this information for further advertising. We also use performance cookies to help us improve the website by measuring any errors that occur or test different designs of our website.

Google Analytics

Description

Google Analytics is a web analytics service provided by Google, Inc. ("Google"), to help us see how our website is used. The data collected by Google Analytics is used to store information, such as what time your current visit occurred, whether you have been to the site before, and what site referred you to the web page.

These cookies contain no personally identifiable information but they will use your computer's IP address to know from where in the world you are accessing the Internet.

Google stores the information collected by these cookies on servers in the United States. Google may transfer this information to third-parties where required to do so by law, or where such third-parties process the information on Google's behalf.

The cookies in use by this website to deliver the Google Analytics service are:

utma, __utmb, __utmc, __utmv, __utmz

In order to provide website visitors with more choice on how data is collected by Google Analytics, Google has developed the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on. The add-on communicates with the Google Analytics JavaScript (ga.js) to stop data being sent to Google Analytics. The Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on does not affect usage of the website in any other way. A link to further information on the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on is provided below for your convenience.

For more information on the usage of cookies by Google Analytics please see the Google website. A link to the privacy advice for this product is provided below for your convenience.

Functionality cookies

'Functionality' cookies are used to provide services or to remember settings and choices you make to improve your experience during your visit.

For example, these cookies:

  • show you when you are logged into the website,
  • will remember your log-in details,
  • will remember the settings you've applied such as preferences,
  • will remember whether we've already asked you if you want to fill in a survey,
  • measure traffic received from various websites.

Functionality cookies collect non-identifiable data. No personal details are stored in this process and the information collected is only used in aggregate. We sometimes share some of the information with partners to provide a service on our website. In addition, some of these cookies are managed for us by third parties. In any case, the information shared or collected by third parties is only to be used to provide the service, product or function and not for any other purpose.

You can control whether or not these cookies are used, but preventing them may mean we can't offer you some services, and will reduce the support we can offer you. It's also possible that preventing these cookies stops us remembering that you didn't want a specific service or feature.

Targeting cookies (not used on our Website)

These cookies are used to deliver adverts more relevant to you and your interests. They are also used to limit the number of times you see an advertisement as well as help measure the effectiveness of the advertising campaign.

We do not use targeting cookies

How we collect your consent

When you enter careershub.serco.eu and jobsearch.serco.eu for the first time, you will see the following notice:

"The Careers Hub and Job Search web pages store essential cookies. It also stores cookies to improve your experience. Although you may turn cookies off, this may affect your enjoyment of the site. To see more information on how we use cookies please click here"

Having seen this notice, and having read the Cookies section of our Privacy Policy if you make no changes to the existing cookie settings we have provided we will take this as your agreement to those settings as we have told you about them and we assume you are happy with them.

There will also be two buttons; 'Keep all cookies enabled' and 'Turn cookies off'. If someone accepts, the pop up will disappear and cookies will remain. If someone declines the pop up will disappear and performance cookies will be inactivated. This means we will not be able to know which link or which website you came from such as serco.eu or third party websites.

Browser settings

In addition to using the icons, cookies can also be removed from your PC using browser settings but there will still be some deterioration in the service you receive (for example, you may receive many pop up boxes containing the same advertisements or you may not be able to access a page you earlier personalised).

Your browser lets you choose whether to accept, not to accept or to be warned before accepting cookies. These can be found in the advanced preferences.

Links to advice on how to do this for the most popular Internet browsers are provided below for convenience and will be available for the Internet browser of your choice either online or via the software help (normally available via key F1).

If you delete all your cookies you will have to update your preferences with us again.

If you use a different device, computer profile or browser you will have to tell us your preferences again.
