Cookies Policy

About us
This website is operated by Oberg Associates Ltd, T/A Max Benjamin, a company incorporated under the laws of Ireland under company number 220168 with registered office at Glenstock, Enniskerry, Co Wicklow, Ireland (“Max Benjamin", “we", “our" or “us").

Who does this policy apply to?
This cookie policy relates to your use of our website and any other service that links to this policy or incorporates it by reference and should be read together with our Privacy Notice.

What are cookies?
A cookie is a small text file which is placed onto your device (e.g. computer, smartphone or other electronic device) when you use our website. There are two distinct types of cookies, session cookies and persistent cookies. A session cookie allows a website to link your actions during a particular browser session. They expire each time you close your browser and do not remain on your device afterwards. A persistent cookie is stored on your device in between browser sessions and allows your preferences or actions across websites to be remembered. They will remain on your device for a pre-defined period of time or until they are deleted. Other technologies including pixels, tags, web beacons or local storage also store and retrieve data on a device and are similar to cookies.

We use cookies and similar technologies on our website as they help to distinguish you from other users. This helps us to provide you with a good experience when you browse our website and also allows us to improve our website. Some of the information will be aggregated or statistical, which means that we will not be able to identify you individually. For further information on cookies generally, including how to control and manage them, please see www.aboutcookies.org or www.allaboutcookies.org .

Consent to use cookies and changing settings
We will ask for your permission to place cookies or other similar technologies on your device, except where they are essential for us to provide you with a service that you have requested. You can provide your consent to the use of non-necessary cookies and similar technologies by signifying your acceptance of cookies on our cookies notice and/or by accessing the privacy preference centre on our website. The privacy preference centre should be accessible in the cookie notice that appears at the bottom of our website when you visit our website for the first time or subsequently if we change the cookies we use. Within our privacy preference centre you can signify your consent to certain categories of non-necessary cookies by moving the consent slider to an ‘on’ position. You can withdraw any consent to the use of non-necessary cookies or manage any other cookie preferences using our privacy preference centre. It may be necessary to refresh the website page for the updated settings to take effect.

Alternatively, if you do not want to accept any cookies, you may be able to change your browser or device settings to deny or accept individual or all cookies (including those which are strictly necessary to the services requested). The process varies depending on browser or device so please visit your browser or device’s settings or help section for more information. Some functionality on our website requires the use of cookies, so disabling these may affect the service. Find out how to manage cookies on popular browsers:

To find information relating to other browsers, visit the browser developer’s website. To opt out of being tracked by Google Analytics across all websites, visit http://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout 

Our use of cookies and similar technologies

We use the following categories of cookies:
Strictly Necessary Cookies. These cookies are necessary for our website to function and cannot be switched off. You can set your browser to block or alert you about these cookies, but some parts of our website will not work as a result. These cookies are usually only set in response to actions made by you which amount to a request for services, such as setting your privacy preferences, navigating through pages or filling in forms.

Functional Cookies. These cookies enable the website to provide enhanced functionality and personalisation. They may be set by us or by third party providers whose services we have added to our pages.  If you do not allow these cookies then some or all of these services may not function properly.

Performance Cookies. These cookies allow us to count visits and traffic sources so we can measure and improve the performance of our website. They help us to know which pages are the most and least popular and to see how visitors move around our website. These cookies collect information in a way that does not directly identify anyone. If you do not allow these cookies we will not be able to count your visit to our website and will not be able to monitor its performance.

Targeting Cookies: These are set through our website by our advertising or social media partners. They may be used by those companies to build a profile of your interests and show you relevant adverts on other websites. If you do not allow these cookies, you should experience less targeted advertising. You can find more information about the individual cookies we use and the purposes for which we use them in the tables below.
