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. As the means by which you can refuse cookies through your web browser controls vary from browser-to-browser, you should visit your browser's help menu for more information.

A cookie is a small text file sent to and stored in your browser by a website you visit. Website owners can use cookies for a variety of reasons that can include enabling the website to remember information about your visit, like your preferred language and other settings or creating website analytics. Some cookies are used for technical reasons that are strictly necessary for our Site to operate. Cookies may also send data to third-parties to recognize you, make your next visit to our Site easier, enhance the performance and utility of the Site and provide personalised content and advertising. This is described in more detail below.

Cookies can be "persistent" (last for a longer timeframe) or "session" cookies (only useful during your session on that specific site).

Cookies set by the Site owner (Columbia) are called "first party cookies". Only the website owner can access the first party cookies it sets. Cookies set by parties other than the website owner are called "third party cookies". Third party cookies are associated with trusted third parties and enable third party features or functionality to be provided on or through the Website (e.g. analytics or advertising). The specific types of first and third party cookies served through our Site and the purposes they perform are described in the table below.





Cookies are not the only way to recognise or track visitors to a website. We may use other, similar technologies from time to time.

Web Beacons: We may collect information using web beacons. Web beacons, or "gifs", are electronic images that may be used on our Sites or in our emails. We use web beacons to deliver cookies, count visits, understand usage and campaign effectiveness and to tell if an email has been opened and acted upon.

Flash Cookies: (also known as Local Shared Objects or "LSOs") to collect and store information about your use of our services, fraud prevention and for other site operations. If you do not want Flash Cookies stored on your computer, you can adjust the settings of your Flash player to block Flash Cookies storage using the tools contained in the Website Storage Settings Panel. Please note that setting the Flash Player to restrict or limit acceptance of Flash Cookies may reduce or impede the functionality of some Flash applications, including, potentially, Flash applications used in connection with our services or online content.

In many instances, these technologies are reliant on cookies to function properly, and so declining cookies will impair their functioning.



We may also use third parties to serve ads on third party sites. Certain third parties may automatically collect information about your visits to the Site, such as your IP address, your ISP, and the browser you use to visit our Sites. They do this using cookies, clear gifs or other technologies. Information collected may be used, among other things, to deliver advertising targeted to your interests and to better understand the usage and visitation of our Sites and the other sites tracked by these third parties. This Notice does not apply to, and we are not responsible for, cookies or clear gifs in third party ads, and we encourage you to check the privacy policies of advertisers and/or ad services to learn about their use of cookies and other technology.



We may update this Cookie Notice from time to time in order to reflect, for example, changes to the cookies we use or for other operational, legal or regulatory reasons. Please therefore re-visit this Cookie Notice regularly to stay informed about our use of cookies and related technologies. The date at the top of this Cookie Notice indicates when it was last updated.



If you have any questions about our use of cookies or other technologies, please email us at privacy-SOREL@SOREL.com. If you’d like more information about how we use your data more generally, please visit our Privacy Notice.
