Cookie Policy

we use a small number of cookies, most of them just to keep the website working and your account signed in. We do not sell data, and anything that is not essential asks for your consent first. Every cookie we set is listed openly below.

What cookies are

Cookies are small text files that a website stores on your device. Some are deleted when you close the browser (session cookies), others remain until they expire or you delete them (persistent cookies). Cookies set by us are first-party cookies; cookies set by services we use, such as our payment processor, are third-party cookies.

Who sets them

This website is operated by 1st Insurance, trading as Private Rescue. This policy covers cookies and similar technologies used on this website. How we handle personal information more broadly is described in our Privacy Policy.

 

Essential cookies

These make the website work and cannot be switched off through the website itself. They are only set in response to actions you take, such as logging in or purchasing.

We use essential cookies to keep you signed in to your member account, to maintain your session and security while you move through the site, to remember your progress and selections during sign-up and checkout, and to protect forms against abuse. WordPress, the platform this website runs on, sets its own session and authentication cookies for these purposes. Most of these are session cookies that expire when you close your browser; login cookies last up to 30 days.

Payment cookies

Card payments are handled by CyberSource, our payment processor. The secure card fields on the payment step are served by CyberSource inside your browser, and CyberSource may set cookies or use similar technologies needed to run that secure session and prevent fraud. These last only as long as the payment session. Your card details are entered directly with CyberSource and do not touch our servers. CyberSource’s own privacy notices apply to its processing.

Functional cookies

These remember choices you make so the website behaves the way you left it, such as your language preference when switching between English and French versions of a page. They are persistent cookies lasting up to [duration, e.g. 12 months]. Without them the site still works, but your preferences will not be remembered between visits.

Your choices

When you first visit, the cookie banner lets you accept or decline non-essential cookies, and you can change that choice at any time via [cookie settings link]. Your browser also gives you control: you can block or delete cookies in its settings, and you can set it to warn you before cookies are stored. Blocking essential cookies will stop parts of the website working, including logging in to your account and completing a purchase.

Changes to this policy

We update this page when the cookies we use change, and the date at the top shows the current version. Material changes will be reflected in the cookie banner where consent is affected.
