More about our Cookies

Third party cookies
Our site, like most websites, includes functionality provided by third parties. A common example is an embedded YouTube video. Disabling these cookies will likely break the functions offered by these third parties.

LeadBoxer

LeadBoxer helps us to identify companies, not individuals, who are accessing our website, and presents firmographic information. Personal information is only collected and stored if you select opt-in preferences. This cookie is used to store anonymised information, including the IP address, access time, frequency of visits and the IP address. It is then saved to a server managed by LeadBoxer.   You can disable/delete this cookie at any time.

Hollis has chosen “LeadBoxer” as lead and/or customer identification options for our website and email behaviour, we may therefore send personal data relating to you to LeadBoxer.  By implementing this lead and customer platform option, Hollis agrees to the transfer of your personal data required for lead and customer identification.  This is only the case if you have consented to the use of cookies on our site.

The personal data transmitted to LeadBoxer typically includes first name, last name, email address, IP address, or other that is necessary for lead identification processing. You can find out further information by visiting https://www.leadboxer.com/privacy/

Email tracking

Our emails or newsletter(s) may contain so-called tracking pixels. A tracking pixel is a miniature graphic embedded in an e-mail, which are sent in HTML format to enable log file recording and analysis. This allows a statistical analysis of the success or failure of online marketing campaigns.

Such personal data collected in the tracking pixels contained in the newsletters are stored and analysed by the controller in order to optimise the shipping of the newsletter, and to continuously adapt content of future newsletters in the interests of the data subject. This personal data will not be shared with any third parties. Data subjects can withdraw their consent, by means of the opt-in/out procedure. If consent is withdrawn, the any personal data held by the data controller will be deleted and you will be withdrawn from receiving the newsletter.

Visitor Statistics Cookies
We use cookies to compile visitor statistics such as how many people have visited our website, what type of technology they are using (e.g. Mac or Windows which helps to identify when our site isn’t working as it should for particular technologies), how long they spend on the site, what page they look at etc. This helps us to continuously improve our website. These so called ‘Analytics’ programs also tell us how people reached this site (e.g. from a search engine) and whether they have been here before helping us to put more money into developing our services for you instead of marketing spend.

Opting out

If you should wish to opt out at any point, please email  [email protected].  As per the privacy and electronic communications regulations (PECR), we will take the appropriate steps to stop any future marketing communications.

By switching off cookies, however, will limit the functionality of ours and a large proportion of the world’s websites as cookies are a standard part of most modern websites.  It may be that you have concerns around how cookies relate to so called ‘spyware’. Rather than switching off cookies in your browser you may find that anti-spyware software achieves the same objective by automatically deleting cookies considered to be invasive.
