Cookie Policy (UK)

Which cookies PenCompare sets, why, and how to change your mind.

PenCompare sets one cookie to remember your choice, and a small number of Google Analytics cookies only if you say yes. Nothing is set for advertising or profiling. This page lists exactly what is used.

What we use

Remembering your choice (always on)

When you answer the cookie notice, we save your answer in a small file on your device, so we do not ask you again on every page. It is kept for 180 days, comes from this site only, and is used for nothing else. You can change your answer at any time with the button below.

Visit statistics (only if you accept)

If you choose Accept analytics, we use Google Analytics to count visits and see which pages are used most. Google stores small files on your device to tell one visit from another, and they can last up to two years. We use the results to understand which pages and prices people find useful. We do not use them for advertising.

With analytics on, we also note which provider link you click (the provider, medicine, dose and position in the table) and whether you come back to this page afterwards. To work out whether you came back, your browser holds a short temporary note until you close the tab. None of this is done if you reject analytics.

Google processes this data for us. Details are in Google’s own explanation.

Change your choice

You can switch analytics on or off at any time. Rejecting, or changing from accept to reject, stops further measurement and removes the Google cookies from this site.

Provider websites

When you click through to a provider, you leave PenCompare. That provider’s website may set its own cookies, which we do not control. Please read the provider’s own cookie policy.
