This cookie policy (“Cookie Policy”) describes how Lombard Odier treats the information Lombard Odier collects when you access and use the Lombard Odier website (“Site”). Please read this Cookie Policy very carefully before using the Site. All terms not defined herein are defined in the legal and regulatory information of the Site accessible at legal and regulatory information page.


    1. What is a cookie?

    A cookie is a small file, typically a string of information of letters and numbers, downloaded on to a device when a person accesses certain websites. Cookies are then sent back to originating website on each subsequent visit. Cookies are useful because they allow a website to recognize a person's device.

    Lombard Odier uses cookies to help Lombard Odier identify and track your usage of the Site, and your Site access preferences. Any person who does not wish to have cookies placed on its computer should set its browsers to refuse cookies before using the Site, with the drawback that certain features of the Site may not function properly without the help of cookies.

    3. What type of data is collected?

    Lombard Odier collects information that does not qualify as Personal Data of the sort that web browsers and servers typically make available, such as the operating system, the browser type, language preference, referring site, and the date and time of each request to the Site.

    Lombard Odier’s purpose in collecting such information is to better understand how a person uses the Site. Lombard Odier may also collect information like Internet Protocol (IP) addresses that may qualify as Personal Data because it relates to an identified or identifiable person. Lombard Odier, however, does not use such information to identify any particular person and does not disclose such information pursuant to this Cookie Policy.

    Such information may be collected with the help of analytics tools. Such technologies can tell Lombard Odier things like how a person arrived on the Site, if this person visited the Site before, how long this person stays on the Site, and which pages this person visits.

    Certain ways to interact with the Site require Lombard Odier to gather Personal Data. The amount and type of information, that Lombard Odier gathers, depends on the nature of the interaction. For example, Lombard Odier asks for registration of certain online products and/or services to provide with a username, an email address, your name, your company name, and your address. In each case, Lombard Odier collects such information only insofar as is necessary or appropriate to fulfill the purpose of the person's interaction with the Site, e.g. to provide the online products and/or services. A person may refuse to supply Personal Data, with the caveat that it may prevent such person from engaging in certain Site-related activities.


    4. Why and how are cookies used by Lombard Odier?

    There are broadly four reasons why a cookie might be stored on your device when visiting the Site:

    • cookies that make the Site work properly for you and enable you to make use of the secure online products and/or services that Lombard Odier provides;
    • cookies that collect data about your use of the Site which is used to help Lombard Odier to improve online products and/or services;
    • cookies that remember your preferences and make the Site easier for you to use;
    • cookies that are placed by third party services Lombard Odier makes use of to enhance the information Lombard Odier presents online. Lombard Odier has no control over these third party cookies.

    These cookies are placed on your device either by Lombard Odier or by the third parties whose services Lombard Odier uses as part of the Site.

    Some cookies are retained in your browser for only as long as you visit the Site, while others persist for a longer specified or unspecified period.


    5. What types of cookies are used by Lombard Odier?

    The below explanations shall help each person to make informed choices about the information a person provides to Lombard Odier and third parties when a person visits the Site.
