Cookie Policy
Our website www.surveybods.com uses cookies to distinguish you from other users of our website. This helps us to provide you with a good experience when you browse our website and also allows us to improve our site.
By accessing and browsing our website you are agreeing to the terms of this cookie policy and agree to us using cookies. Please read this cookie policy carefully.
We may update this cookie policy so it’s a good idea to come back and read through it again from time to time.
This cookie policy was last updated on 29 June 2022.
Cookies are small data files that are placed on your computer or mobile device when you visit a website. Cookies are widely used by website owners to make their websites work, or to work more efficiently, as well as to provide reporting information.
Cookies set by the website owner (in this case, Researchbods) are called "first party cookies". Cookies set by parties other than the website owner are called "third party cookies". Please refer to the “Third Party Cookies” section below for further details on third party cookies.
We use first party and third-party cookies for several reasons. Some cookies are required for technical reasons for our website to operate, and we refer to these as "essential" or "strictly necessary" cookies. Other cookies also enable us to track and target the interests of our users to enhance the experience on our website. Third parties serve cookies through our website for advertising, analytics and other purposes. This is described in more detail below.
These cookies are essential to the operation of our website. They include, for example, cookies that enable you to log into secure areas of our website.
These are used to recognise you when you return to our website. This enables us to personalise out content for you, greet you by name and remember user preferences (for example, your choice of language or region).
These types of cookies allow us to recognise and count the number of visitors and to see how visitors move around our website when they are using it. This helps us to improve the way our website works, for example, by ensuring that users are finding what they are looking for easily.
You can find more information about the individual cookies we use and the purposes for which we use them in the table below:

Cookies are not the only way to recognise or track visitors to a website. We may use other, similar technologies from time to time, like web beacons (sometimes called "pixel tags" "tracking pixels" or "clear gifs"). These are tiny graphics files that contain a unique identifier that enable us to recognise when someone has visited our website or opened an e-mail that we have sent them. This allows us, for example, to monitor the traffic patterns of users from one page within our website to another, to deliver or communicate with cookies, to understand whether you have come to our website from an online advertisement displayed on a third-party website, to improve site performance, and to measure the success of e-mail marketing campaigns. In many instances, these technologies are reliant on cookies to function properly, and so declining cookies will impair their functioning.
Third party cookies enable third party features or functionality to be provided on or through our website (e.g. like advertising, interactive content and analytics). The parties that set these third-party cookies can recognise your computer both when it visits the website in question and when it visits certain other websites.
Some features used on our website may involve a cookie being sent to your computer by a third party. For example, if you view or listen to any embedded audio or video content you may be sent cookies from the site where the embedded content is hosted. Likewise, if you share any content on this site through social networks (for example by clicking a Facebook “like” button or a “Tweet” button) you may be sent cookies from these websites. We have no control over these cookies so please check the relevant third party website for more information about their cookies and how to manage them.
