We use cookies to help improve your experience of our website at https://antipodes.audio. This cookie policy is part of Antipodes Audio Limited's privacy policy. It covers the use of cookies between your device and our site.
We also provide basic information on third-party services we may use, who may also use cookies as part of their service. This policy does not cover their cookies.
If you don’t wish to accept cookies from us, you should instruct your browser to refuse cookies from https://antipodes.audio.

WHAT IS A COOKIE?
A cookie is a small piece of data that a website stores on your device when you visit. It typically contains information about the website itself, a unique identifier that allows the site to recognise your web browser when you return, additional data that serves the cookie’s purpose, and the lifespan of the cookie itself. For example, it enables us to display support booking times in your time zone, for your convenience. Another example, is that it allows us to store your cookies preferences and not have to seek your approval of cookies every time you open page on our website.
Cookies are used to enable useful features, track site usage (eg usage analytics), store your user settings (eg time zone, notification preferences), and to personalise your content.
Cookies set by the website you are visiting are usually referred to as first-party cookies. They typically only track your activity on that particular site.
Cookies set by other sites and companies (i.e. third parties) are called third-party cookies. They can be used to track you on other websites that use the same third-party service.
