Cookie Policy

Version: June 2026

The uk.gigroup.com website, referred to as the “Site”, uses cookies and similar technologies. These may include small text files, pixels, tags, scripts and local storage that are placed on, or accessed from, your device when you use the Site.

Cookies and similar technologies help the Site work properly, remember choices you make, understand how the Site is used, improve performance, support embedded content and forms and, where you choose to allow them, support advertising and measurement.

Cookies may be set by us as first-party cookies or by other organisations as third-party cookies. They may be session cookies, which are deleted when you close your browser, or persistent cookies, which remain on your device for a set period unless you delete them sooner.

Cookie settings

When you first visit the Site, or when your previous cookie choice has expired, you can choose whether to accept, reject or manage non-essential cookies through our cookie preference centre, powered by OneTrust. Strictly necessary cookies are always active because they are needed for the Site to work.

You can change your cookie choices at any time by using the cookie settings option available on the Site. The cookie preference centre also provides details of individual cookies, including the relevant vendor, purpose, category and duration.

You can also control or delete cookies through your browser settings, although blocking some cookies may affect how the Site works.

Strictly necessary cookies

These cookies are required for the Site to function, keep it secure, load pages correctly, remember your cookie choices and support services you request, such as form security or fraud prevention. They cannot be switched off through our cookie preference centre.

Functional cookies

Functional cookies help the Site provide enhanced features and remember choices you make. They may support features such as embedded forms, chat tools, video content, user preferences or other services provided by us or by third-party providers. If you do not allow these cookies, some features may not work properly.

Performance cookies

Performance cookies help us understand how visitors use the Site, which pages are visited and how the Site performs. This helps us improve content, navigation and user experience. These cookies may include tools such as Google Analytics, HubSpot analytics or similar services. The information is used for reporting and improvement purposes and is not used by us to directly identify you.

For more information about Google Analytics, please visit: https://support.google.com/analytics

You can also use the Google Analytics opt-out browser add-on: https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout

Targeting cookies

Targeting cookies may be set through the Site by our advertising, recruitment marketing or social media partners. They may be used to build a profile of your interests, measure campaigns, limit repeat advertising or show relevant adverts on other websites. These cookies are only used where you choose to allow them through the cookie preference centre.

Third-party providers

Some cookies and similar technologies are provided by third parties. Based on the current configuration of the Site, these may include providers such as Google, HubSpot, LinkedIn, DoubleClick, Vimeo, Cloudflare and other providers listed in the cookie preference centre.

The list of providers may change over time, so the cookie preference centre should be treated as the most up-to-date source of information about individual cookies and vendors.

Your choices

You can accept all, reject non-essential cookies or manage cookies by category through the cookie preference centre. Where cookies require your consent, we will not use them unless you have chosen to allow them. You can withdraw or change your consent at any time using the cookie settings option on the Site.

You can also manage cookies in your browser. The guidance provided by the main browser providers can usually be found here:

  • Google Chrome
  • Mozilla Firefox
  • Apple Safari
  • Microsoft Edge

Please note that if you block or delete cookies, some parts of the Site may not work properly.
