CookiePolicy
1. Introduction
This Cookie Policy explains how Riverside Underwriting Limited ("we", "us", "our") uses cookies and similar tracking technologies when you visit our website. As a Business-to-Business (B2B) platform, we are committed to protecting the privacy and data integrity of our corporate partners, brokers, and clients in strict accordance with the UK General Data Protection Regulation (UK GDPR) and the Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulations (PECR).
By utilising our website, you acknowledge that we may store and access certain essential cookies on your device. Non-essential cookies (such as marketing and advanced tracking scripts) will only be deployed with your explicit, affirmative consent.
2. What are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files containing unique identifiers that are downloaded to your computer, tablet, or mobile device when you browse a website. They enable websites to remember your actions, maintain secure sessions, and understand how visitors interact with online services to improve performance and user experience.
- First-party cookies: Set directly by our website domain.
- Third-party cookies: Set by external partners or vendors (e.g., analytics suites, CRM systems, or corporate marketing platforms).
- Session cookies: Temporary trackers that expire automatically when you close your browser.
- Persistent cookies: Remain on your device for a pre-determined period or until manually cleared.
3. Categories of Cookies We Deploy
We categorise our cookies into the following functional classifications:
| Classification | Purpose and Legal Framework |
|---|---|
| Strictly Necessary | Essential for core operations, security, load balancing, and secure client/broker portal authentication. These do not require your prior consent under PECR. |
| Preferences & Performance | Retain configuration preferences chosen by you (such as language or display layout). | Utilised solely for aggregated, internal business reporting to measure performance and streamline user journeys. In compliance with modern UK regulatory updates, purely analytical tracking may operate on an opt-out basis for UK traffic, though strict opt-in frameworks remain active for EU visitors. |
| Marketing & Target Tracking | Used to track the efficacy of our B2B campaigns across corporate networks (e.g., LinkedIn, Google Ads). These are turned off by default and require explicit opt-in confirmation before execution. |
4. Managing Your Preferences
You maintain complete autonomy over non-essential cookies. You can alter or withdraw your consent state at any absolute moment by utilising the dynamic interactive control panel generated below by our Consent Management Platform.
Alternatively, you can configure your corporate browser architecture to reject or block all cookie structures. Please refer to your browser’s help documentation to manage global local storage constraints. Note that disabling necessary cookies may disrupt user functionality across our secure web portals.
5. Automated Cookie Audit & Declaration
The declaration panel below is automatically updated via real-time monthly technical audits executed by Cookiebot. It details individual cookie tags, providers, purposes, and explicit operational lifespans.
