Cookie Policy

Updated January 2026

This Cookie Policy explains how International Tree Foundation uses cookies to recognise you when you visit our website at internationaltreefoundation.org. It explains what these technologies are and why we use them, as well as your rights to control our use of them.

No personal information is collected in the cookies we use, so this information is anonymous and cookies don’t harm your computer.

  • Cookies are small data files that are placed on your computer or mobile device when you visit a website. Cookies are used in order to make websites work, or to work more efficiently, as well as to provide reporting information.

    Cookies set International Tree Foundation are called "first-party cookies." Cookies set by parties other than the website owner are called "third-party cookies."

  • Some cookies are required for technical reasons in order for our Website to operate, and we refer to these as "essential" or "strictly necessary" cookies. Other cookies also enable us to track and target the interests of our users, so we can assess the effectiveness of our website. Third parties serve cookies through our Website for advertising, analytics, and other purposes. This is described in more detail below.

  • You have the right to decide whether to accept or reject cookies. You can exercise your cookie rights by setting your preferences in the Cookie Consent Manager. The Cookie Consent Manager allows you to select which categories of cookies you accept or reject. Essential cookies cannot be rejected as they are strictly necessary to provide you with services.

    The Cookie Consent Manager can be found in the notification banner and on our Website. If you choose to reject cookies, you may still use our Website though your access to some functionality and areas of our Website may be restricted. You may also set or amend your web browser controls to accept or refuse cookies.

     

  • Necessary cookies

    These cookies are essential in order to enable you to move around the website and use its features. Without these cookies, services you might want, like shopping baskets won’t work.

    Performance and functionality cookies

    These cookies are used to enhance the performance and functionality of our Website but are non-essential to their use. However, without these cookies, certain functionality (like videos) may become unavailable.

    Analytics and customisation cookies

    These cookies collect information that is used either in aggregate form to help us understand how our Website is being used or how effective our marketing campaigns are, or to help us customise our Website for you.

    Advertising cookies

    These cookies are used to make advertising messages more relevant to you. They perform functions like preventing the same ad from continuously reappearing, ensuring that ads are properly displayed for advertisers, and in some cases selecting advertisements that are based on your interests.

    Third-party cookies

    Some Cookies are not related to ITF’s website. Some of our pages contain embedded content, such as a YouTube video, and you may receive Cookies delivered from these websites. We do not govern the publication of third-party cookies. To understand more about their cookies and privacy statements, please visit the relevant sites.

  • Cookies are not the only way to recognize or track visitors to a website. We may use other, similar technologies from time to time, like web beacons (sometimes called "tracking pixels" or "clear gifs"). These are tiny graphics files that contain a unique identifier that enables us to recognize when someone has visited our Website or opened an email including them. This allows us, for example, to monitor the traffic patterns of users from one page within a website to another, to deliver or communicate with cookies, to understand whether you have come to the website from an online advertisement displayed on a third-party website, to improve site performance, and to measure the success of email marketing campaigns. In many instances, these technologies are reliant on cookies to function properly, and so declining cookies will impair their functioning.

  • We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time in order to reflect, for example, changes to the cookies we use or for other operational, legal, or regulatory reasons.

    The date at the top of this Cookie Policy indicates when it was last updated.
