1. Scope

Respecting your privacy is important to Tradeweb.   This Cookie Privacy Policy is issued on behalf of the Tradeweb group of companies, and describes Tradeweb’s use of cookies, and the personal data that Tradeweb collects from you via its use of such cookies when you visit any Tradeweb website. It also describes how such personal data is used and processed by Tradeweb and for what purposes we process it. This Cookie Privacy Policy should be read together with the Tradeweb Privacy Policy and with any other privacy notice or statement that we provide on specific occasions when we are collecting or processing your personal data so that you are fully aware of how and why we are using your personal data. This Cookie Privacy Policy supplements the other notices, but does not override them.  

2. What are Cookies

A cookie is a small text file which is downloaded to your device or browser when you visit a website. Cookies are then sent back to the originating website on each subsequent visit, or to another website that recognises that cookie, in order to develop a record of the user’s online activity. Cookies may be delivered by the website a user visits, or by third parties. First party Cookies are set by Tradeweb and belong to the website domain that appears in the browser address bar.

3. Types of Cookies we use

We use cookies on our website to serve various purposes, including for example, to make our website work efficiently, to enhance user experience, to save your user preferences for the duration of your visit, and to help us identify product features in which you may have the greatest interest.

The types of cookies that Tradeweb uses fall within the following categories:

1. Necessary cookies

These cookies are necessary for the website to function, for example to help keep our websites operational while enabling network management, site functionality, and accessibility. Necessary cookies don't gather information about you that could be used for marketing or tracking your  internet usage. They can be disabled through your browser or device settings but to do so may prevent our websites from working properly, e.g. we cannot guarantee an optimal user experience during your visit.                                                           

2. Preference Cookies

Preference cookies enable us to store certain user selections or preferences and allows for a more tailored website experience.

3. Statistical Analytics

We use analytical cookies to collect information about the use of our website by its visitors in order to improve the content, to provide relevant content, and to increase serviceability. These cookies collect information in an anonymous form (for example the number of visitors to the website and pages visited), and so no user level based behavioural data is collected via such analytical cookies.

4. Marketing/Tracking/Profiling cookies

We use marketing cookies to offer you personalized and more relevant advertisements, to determine how many times a specific ad has already been shown, to calculate the effectiveness of a particular advertising campaign, to track data about previous visits and to share collected data with third parties involved, such as advertisers. They are used on the website and placed on your device by third parties.

4. Cookies used on our websites

The table below sets out the name of cookie used, what its purpose is and how long it lasts. "Session" Cookies are temporary and will expire at the end of a browser session; that is, when you leave a website. These allow our website to recognize you and carry information as you navigate between pages during a single browser session and allow you to use the website efficiently. Other cookies have a defined retention period.
