Edit your cookie settings

What are cookies and why do we use them?
Cookies and similar technologies ("cookies") allow small pieces of information to be read from and/or placed onto your device when you visit a website or application. This allows for websites and applications to recognise you or your device on each subsequent visit so that they can remember things like preferences, log in information and saved shopping carts.
Cookies are very useful and do lots of different jobs. For example, they enable you to move between our web pages efficiently, remember your preferences when you visit us again and generally improve your experience when browsing with us. They can also help to ensure that adverts you see online are more relevant to you and your interests, which in turn help us to tailor our communications.
Cookies last for different lengths of time depending on the job they do. There are session cookies and persistent cookies:
- Session cookies only last for your online session and disappear from your device when you close your browser.
- Persistent cookies stay on your device after the browser has been closed and last for the period of time specified in the cookie.
You can find information about how 1pMobile (as part of the Utility Warehouse group of companies) processes your personal data in our privacy policy which can be found at https://1pmobile.com/privacy-policy.
You have full control
We will only place cookies for the preference level you set. Your preference level will be set depending on the options chosen (usually when you first visit our website), however these can be changed at any time by clicking "Manage Cookie Settings" at the top of this page.
Please note that cookies set before you changed your settings will still be on your device. You can remove them using your browser settings.
Our free online tool can help you manage the cookies we use on 1pMobile.com. To use it, your web browser needs to support JavaScript - if it doesn't you can still find out about the cookies we use here, but you'll need to manage them through your web browser settings.

Cookie management
Third parties
1pMobile allow trusted third party partners to set cookies when you interact with 1pMobile services. Third parties include search engines, providers of measurement and analytics services, social media networks, affiliate networks, other members of the Telecommunication Management Limited Group and advertising companies. Third parties may use cookies in the process of delivering content, including ads relevant to your interests, to measure the effectiveness of their marketing and services, and to perform services on behalf of 1pMobile (as described in the cookie categories above).
Third parties may also read cookies placed on your device when visiting other websites, which usually takes place where that third party also sets cookies on other websites you have visited. You can manage browser cookies through your browser settings (see the Managing Cookies section below).
It is important to note that, although 1pMobile and its trusted third party partners will only set cookies in line with your preferences, if you originally accept the use of cookies, but later change your settings, 1pMobile and its trusted third party partners may continue to use data collected and derived from cookies during the period of time you consented to the cookie placement.
Managing cookies
There are ways you can control and manage cookies on your device. Please remember that any settings you change at browser or device level will not just affect the cookies we use. These changes will apply to all websites you visit (unless you choose to block cookies from particular sites).
Our Cookie Banner
You can directly edit your preferences in relation to the cookies 1pMobile set by using the 1pMobile "Manage Cookie Settings" function to set your preferences. Here you can select your preferences in relation to all non-essential cookies placed by our website.
This method will not impact any cookies previously set, prior to your change in preferences. If you wish to manage existing cookies, you can use your browser settings as outlined below.
Managing cookies in your browser
Most browsers will allow you to choose the level of privacy settings you want. You can (a) block all cookies, (b) accept all cookies, or (c) pick a setting somewhere in between. This range lets you control your cookie settings, so you can:
- See what cookies you've got and delete them on an individual basis
- Block third party cookies
- Block cookies from particular sites
- Block all cookies from being set
- Delete all cookies when you close your browser
Deleting cookies means that any preference settings you have made on a website will be lost. If you've set your preferences to opt out of cookies, this setting will be lost too, as that information is stored in a cookie. Blocking all cookies means functionality on our websites will be lost, as described above. We don't recommend turning all cookies off when using our websites.
If you want to reduce your cookie settings at any time - for example, if you accept all cookies, but later decide you dont want a certain type of cookie - you'll need to use your browser settings to remove any third party cookies dropped on your previous visit.
