Use of Cookies

This website uses cookies; cookies are small text files that can be placed onto your computer, smartphone or other device by this website.

Some cookies are essential for our website to work. If they are disabled, the site won’t work in some basic ways. These are called  “strictly necessary” or “essential” cookies.

Other cookies are not essential, but we use them to help make our site better or more enjoyable for you, e.g. by allowing you to use features like YouTube or allowing us to collect information about how people use the site. These are classified as “targeting” (elsewhere classified as “statistics”, “marketing” or “external media”) cookies.

By law in many of the jurisdictions in which we operate, we are allowed to use “strictly necessary” cookies as long as we tell you about them. However, we need your consent before we use any other type of cookie.

This Cookie Policy relates to www.montlakeucits.com only. As with any website, we will collect data about your IP address, resources requested and the time and date requested, as well as the device and browser you are using to serve the optimal presentation. Read our full Global Data Protection Information Notice here where we explain more about how we handle your personal data, international transfers, your data protection rights and how you can exercise them.
