We use cookies on our website. If you need further information, please contact privacy@mayflyentertainment.com or read our Privacy Notice.
A cookie is a small text file that is downloaded onto ‘terminal equipment’ (eg a computer or smartphone) when you access our website. It allows the website to recognise your device and store some information about your preferences or past actions.
We ask you for your consent for the performance and functional cookies. We do not need your consent for essential cookies that are required to make our website work – these are considered to be strictly necessary to provide an ‘information society service’ (eg a service over the internet such as our website) requested by you.
Performance cookies that we use on our website.
We use five ‘first party’ performance cookies on our website:
| Cookie name | Why we use it | How long we keep it for |
|---|---|---|
| _ga_xxxxxxx | To distinguish you from other users by assigning a randomly generated number as a website visitor identifier, included in each page request in a site and used to calculate visitor and session data to improve our website | These cookies are ‘persistent’ cookies, because they do not expire at the end of your session. It expires after 729 days |

Functional cookies that we use on our website
We have two ‘third party’ functional cookies on our website called __cf_bm and vuid.
__cf_bm allows the video player to work on the site and is a session cookie which expires at the end of your session.
vuid identifies which video is needed to play with is a persistent cookie and expires after 729 days.
Terms we use above are explained here.
Cookies that expire at the end of a browser session (normally when you exit your browser) are called ‘session cookies’. Cookies that can be stored for longer are called ‘persistent cookies’.
Session cookies allow websites to recognise and link your actions during a browsing session. We use them for understanding more about how you navigate around our website so that we can improve it.
Session cookies are also used for security purposes. These session cookies expire after a session ends, so would not be stored beyond this and are less privacy-intrusive than persistent cookies.
Persistent cookies are stored on your device in-between sessions. They allow your preferences or actions across a site (or across different websites) to be remembered.
Persistent cookies are used for a variety of purposes including remembering your preferences and choices when using a site. The length of time between a cookie being set and expiry is set by us. You can also delete previously set persistent cookies manually or configure the browser settings to delete cookies at a set interval.
Whether a cookie is ‘first’ or ‘third’ party refers to the website or domain placing the cookie.
First-party cookies are set directly by our website when you visit it, ie the www.mayflyentertainment.com displayed in your browser’s address bar.
Third-party cookies are set by a domain other than the one you are visiting. This typically occurs when the website incorporates elements from other sites, such as images like Vimeo. When your browser or other software fetches these elements from the other sites, they can set cookies as well.
