By using this website https://birrificoangeloporetti.co.uk (the ‘Website’) you consent to the use of cookies in accordance with this Cookie Notification by Carlsberg Marston’s Brewing Company Limited (company reg. no. 12577732) and our partners. You will have seen a pop up to this effect on your first visit to the Website. Although it will not usually appear on subsequent visits, you may withdraw your consent at any time by following the instructions under ‘Disabling and managing cookies’.
CMBC is part of a global group of companies. In that connection we may share your Personal Data with our subsidiaries, our ultimate holding company and its subsidiaries (‘CMBC Group Entities’) for the purposes stated in this Cookie Notification. Each of those companies may also process and use your Personal Data for the purposes stated in this Cookie Notification, but they do it independently, on their own behalf.
If you do not agree to our use of cookies on the Website, please manage your cookie preferences by pressing the button ‘Manage Cookies’. Please note that the functionality of the Website and the services provided may be affected if cookies are disabled.
Where the organisation setting the cookie provides an automated disabling tool in respect of its cookie(s) we list below the name of that organisation, the category of cookies it sets, together with a link to its automated disabling tool. In all other cases, we list the names of the cookies themselves and their source at the date of this Cookie Notification, so that you can easily identify and disable them through your browser controls.
Some browsers make it possible for you to signal that you do not want your internet browsing activity to be tracked. Disabling tracking may interfere with some uses of the Website and the services provided on the Website.
After your initial visit to the Website we may change the cookies we use. This Cookie Notification will always allow you to know who is placing cookies and for what purposes, and give you the means to disable them, so you should check it from time to time.
Cookies are text files containing small amounts of information which are downloaded to your device when you visit a website. Cookies are then sent back to the originating web domain on your subsequent visits to that domain. Most web pages contain elements from multiple web domains, so when you visit the Website your browser may receive cookies from several sources.
Cookies are useful because they allow a website to recognise a user’s device. Cookies allow you to navigate between pages efficiently, remember preferences and generally improve the user experience. They can also be used to tailor advertising to your interests through tracking your browsing across websites.
Session cookies are deleted automatically when you close your browser and persistent cookies remain on your device after the browser is closed (for example to remember your user preferences when you return to a website).
We describe the categories of cookies that we, our affiliates and our contractors use in this Cookie Notification.
These cookies are essential to enable you to move around the Website and use its features. Without these cookies, services you have asked for (such as navigating between pages, using a shopping cart or e-billing services) cannot be provided.
The Website currently uses the following, strictly necessary cookies:

We might also use these cookies to highlight articles or site services that we think will be of interest to you based on your use of the Website. The information collected by these cookies is not associated with your personal information by us or by our contractors.

Marketing and advertising cookies (or targeting cookies) collect information about the browsing habits associated with your device and are used to make advertising more relevant to you and your interests. They are also used by services provided by third parties on the Website, such as ‘Like’ or ‘Share’ buttons, in addition to providing the requested functionality. Third parties provide these services in return for recognising that you (or more accurately your device has) have visited a certain website. These third parties put down advertising cookies both when you visit the Website, and when you use their services and navigate away from the Website. Their privacy practices are set out below:
You can opt out of the advertising cookies set by these third parties at http://www.youronlinechoices.com/uk/your-ad-choices
In addition to the above cookies, we use Local Shared Objects, also referred to as ‘Flash cookies’, on the Website. These are used to enhance your user experience, for example, by storing your user preferences and settings, such as your volume/mute settings, and in connection with animated content on the Website. Local Shared Objects are similar to browser cookies but can store more complex data than simple text. By themselves, they cannot do anything to, or with, the data on your computer. Like other cookies, they can only access personally identifiable information that you have provided on the Website and cannot be accessed by other websites. To find out more about Flash cookies or how to disable them, please click here http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/disable-local-shared-objects-flash.html.
Our emails may contain a single, campaign-unique ‘web beacon pixel’ to tell us whether our emails are opened and verify any clicks through to links within the email. We may use this information to determine which of our emails are more interesting to you and to query whether users who do not open our emails wish to continue receiving them. The pixel will be deleted when you delete the email. If you do not wish the pixel to be downloaded to your device, you should select to receive emails from us in plain text rather than HTML. Some of the pages on the Website may also contain web beacons which allow us to count visitors who have viewed our pages. They allow us to develop statistical information about the activities and features that most interest our consumers for the purpose of providing more personalised content. In general, they are not used to access personally identifiable information without your consent.
Pixel tags may be shared with third parties that directly support our promotional activities and website development. For example, in order to measure the effectiveness of our ads, third parties, including Facebook, may use cookies, web beacons, and other storage technologies to collect or receive information from the Website and elsewhere on the internet, and use that information to provide measurement services to and target ads on their own platforms. You can find out how to opt-out of the collection and use of information for ad targeting by third parties here: http://www.aboutads.info/choices and http://www.youronlinechoices.eu/).
We may also use your IP address and browser type to help diagnose problems with our server, to administer the Website and to improve the service we offer to you. An IP address is a numeric code that identifies your computer on the internet. Your IP address might also be used to gather broad demographic information.
We may perform IP lookups to determine which domain you are coming from (e.g. google.com) to more accurately gauge our users’ demographics.
Please note that this Cookie Notification does not apply to, and we are not responsible for, the cookie and privacy practices of third-party websites that may be linked to the Website.
We encourage you to review this Cookie Notification from time to time to stay informed of how we are using cookies.
