We do not share directly identifiable personal data with advertisers.
What is a cookie?
A cookie is a small piece of data that a website asks your browser to store on your computer or mobile device. The cookie allows the website to ""remember"" your actions or preferences over time.
Most Internet browsers support cookies; however, users can set their browsers to decline certain types of cookies or specific cookies. Further, users can delete cookies at any time.
Why do we use cookies?
We use cookies to learn how you interact with our content and to improve your experience when visiting our website(s). For example, some cookies remember your language or preferences so that you do not have to repeatedly make these choices when you visit one of our websites. Additionally, cookies allow us to serve you specific content, such as videos on our website(s).
What types of cookies do we use?
First-Party and Third-Party Cookies
We use both first-party and third-party cookies on our website.
First-party cookies are cookies issued from the nxplorers.com domain that are generally used to identify language and location preferences or render basic site functionality.
Third-party cookies belong to and are managed by other parties, such as Shell business partners or service providers.
Advertising and Social Media Cookies
Specifically designed to deliver advertisements that are relevant to your interests. They track your online activity over time to build a profile of your interests.
Social media cookies are third-party tracking tools set on user devices by social media platforms like Facebook, Youtube, X (formerly Twitter) and Vimeo. These cookies monitor user activity across websites and then enable features like "Like" and "Share" buttons, personalized content, ad targeting, and analytics.
If you deactivate these cookies, advertising (including ours) will continue to be displayed as you browse the Internet, although it will not be specific to your personal interests or as relevant.
Analytical and Performance Cookies
Collect anonymous data about how visitors use a website (e.g. Google Analytics), which pages are most visited, and if users encounter error messages.
Personalisation Cookies
These cookies allow us to provide you with online (or in-store) recommendations of products, services and content that match your expectations and preferences.
Necessary / Functional Cookies (always active)
Essential for you to navigate a website and use its features, these cookies remember the choices you make (such as your username, region, or language) to provide a more personalized experience. They do not require user consent under most privacy laws (e.g. OneTrust and Craft (CMS)).
Session Cookies
Session cookies are temporary cookies that are used to remember you during the course of your visit to the website, and they expire when you close the web browser.
Persistent Cookies
Persistent cookies are used to remember your preferences within the website and remain on your desktop or mobile device even after you close your browser or restart your computer. We use these cookies to analyse user behaviour to establish visit patterns so that we can improve our website functionality for you and others who visit our website(s). These cookies also allow us to serve you with targeted advertising and measure the effectiveness of our site functionality and advertising.
How are third party cookies used?
For some of the functions within our websites we use third party suppliers, for example, when you visit a page with videos embedded from or links to Vimeo. These videos or links (and any other content from third party suppliers) may contain third party cookies, and we encourage you to consult the privacy policies of these third party vendors on their websites for information regarding their use of cookies.
How do I reject and delete cookies?
You can choose to reject or block all or specific types of cookies set by virtue of your visit to a Shell website by clicking on the cookie preferences on our website(s). You can change your preferences for Shell websites and/or the websites of any third party suppliers by changing your browser settings.
Please note that most browsers automatically accept cookies. Therefore, if you do not wish cookies to be used, you may need to actively delete or block the cookies. If you reject the use of cookies, you will still be able to visit our websites but some of the functions may not work correctly. You may also visit www.allaboutcookies.org for details on how to delete or reject cookies and for further information on cookies generally. By using our website without deleting or rejecting some or all cookies, you agree that we can place those cookies that you have not deleted or rejected on your device.
