But you always can let us know if you do not wish to receive unsolicited promotional materials from us, and we will make every reasonable effort to honor such requests.

The Independent Affiliates and Coaches in your sales organization act as a support network, providing advice, guidance, and information to assist you in ordering and using any products, completing any courses, and succeeding with building and maintaining a successful Great Discovery business should you choose to do one.

We do not require your consent to use these cookies but you may be able to block these cookies yourself on your device/browser (see section 4 of this Policy). However, without these cookies, our site is unlikely to work as you would expect and certain services that you may ask for, for example, signing into your online account, cannot be provided.

   Where we process 'personal data' using these essential cookies, we do so on the basis of our legitimate interests to provide a website for visitors to use and to promote our business.

   Help us to improve - 'analytics' cookies

   Analytics cookies are used by us for statistical analysis purposes. This helps us to understand how visitors use and move around our website, which inform improvements and adaptions to our website to best meet our visitors' needs by, for example, making the most popular features the easiest to find and access or ensuring that our site works properly on the devices and technologies that our visitors use.

   These cookies work by using a distinctive sequence of characters from which your browser or device can be identified ('unique ID'), which, for example, can be used by us to recognise the date and time of your visit(s) to our site. Our analytics cookies may also collect information about your browser type and settings, device type and settings, operating system and mobile network. This information is used to distinguish you from other visitors to our site, but it cannot be used to identify you as a named individual.

   We will only set these types of cookies where you have provided us with your consent to do so by either choosing to 'Allow all cookies' or by adjusting your cookie settings via the 'Your cookies settings', above. Where we process your personal information using these types of cookies, we do so on the basis of that consent.

   Rejecting our analytics cookies will prevent us from collecting the data described above to improve our site for you and other visitors. The performance and functionality of our site will not be affected.

   Social media cookies

   We have configured the social media plug-ins on our website to only set cookies on devices used by logged-in members of those social media platforms. For example, we may advertise the services that we provide and job opportunities on certain third party websites such as LinkedIn. We use cookies from those third parties' sites on our own website to:

   • provide us with anonymised demographics and browsing activity information of the logged-in visitors to our own website;
   • help us to tailor our advertising on the websites of those third parties to previous logged-in visitors to certain pages of our own site; and
   • help us measure the effectiveness of our advertising.

   These cookies work by using a distinctive sequence of characters from which your browser or device can be identified ('unique ID'). Social media cookies may also collect information about your browser type and settings, device type and settings, operating system and mobile network. This information is used to distinguish you from other visitors to our site, but it cannot be used to identify you as a named individual.

   We will only set these types of cookies where you have provided us with your consent to do so by either choosing to 'Allow all cookies' or by adjusting your cookie settings via the 'Your cookies settings', above. Where we process your personal information using these types of cookies, we do so on the basis of that consent.

   Rejecting these cookies will prevent us from relating your visits to our website to our LinkedIn marketing campaigns. It will also prevent any cookies that you have given consent for LinkedIn to use to better understand your browsing behaviour to be stored on your device via thegreatdiscovery.com.

3. Note on 'Experience Enhancing' cookies

   At present, we do not use experiencing enhancing cookies. Experiencing enhancing cookies would allow us to tailor content for you, for example to make our site and information displayed on it more relevant to your interests.

   Choosing to 'Allow all cookies' or moving the on/off toggle for 'Experience enhancing' to 'on' in your 'Manage my cookies' preference centre will have no impact at this time. We have included this section and consent toggle functionality as we anticipate that in the future we may wish to use these types of cookies with your consent. If we wish to process your personal information using these types of cookies in the future, we will do so on the basis of your informed consent at that time. This means that we will provide details of the cookies so that you can make an informed choice as to whether you consent to our use of them.

4. Cookie set by third parties

   'Third party cookies' are cookies set by a domain other than the one that you are visiting. When you visit our website, third party organisations may place cookies on your browser, even if you are not a logged-in member of those organisations. This is because third party cookies do not require you to actively engage with the third party's content or visit their site, just load a page on which the third party's technology sits. For example, we use third party technologies such as video and audio hosting platforms to enable you to watch videos and listen to podcasts on our website. The providers of these technologies may deploy cookies to your browser when you visit the pages on our site where we are using their technologies.

   These cookies may inform the third party organisations about your visit to our site which may be used by those organisations to deliver targeted messages and advertising to you. In all cases, we do not set these cookies and we have no access to the information that they gather. Such cookies are subject to the third party organisations' own cookie policies.
