We have all rights to change, alter or modify our cookie policy at any time without prior notice. Any changes will be posted immediately on this page, so that you can get acquainted with them.
A cookie is a small piece of text stored in a file on the device that you use to access the Internet. Cookies have many uses, but fundamentally they are only used on www.dodrive.uk to store information about your visit to our website.
No. Cookies are just simple text files and are not computer software programs. Cookies cannot spread malware or do any harm to your computer or any other device used to access the internet.
From 26 May 2011 a new European Union (EU) directive required all websites to gain the consent of their users to download cookies on to their machines. On 24 May 2012, the Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO) released new guidance which said that a website can operate with cookies through ‘implied consent’.
There are various methods available to gain users consent, but we consider most solutions as obtrusive. DoDrive.uk want our website users to find information and services quickly, and following the Information Commissioner’s Offices (ICOs) May 2012 release, we have taken the decision to promote how we use cookies on our website and provide you with enough information to control your own settings.
Implied consent means that by using our website, you agree to cookies being set. If you want to disable cookies, this policy talks you through how to do this.
Our website uses Google Analytics Cookies. We use this type of cookie to keep an unidentified record of how visitors use our website. We do this so that we can provide, protect, improve and optimize the content and navigation of the website. These cookies do not store any personal data about you.
On some pages of our website there may be social share/link buttons, but our website does not use cookies for these buttons. However, when you use these buttons you will be taken to a social media website where 'other organisations' may set their own anonymous cookies. Because of how cookies work, we cannot access these cookies, nor can the 'other organisations' access the data in cookies for our website.
When you share an article using a social-media sharing button (for example; Facebook), the social network will record that you have done this.
DoDrive® Driving School does not control the setting of, and accept no liability in connection with, social media cookies. Please look at the social network websites for more information about what they do with cookies and how you can manage them.
