Our cookie policy

This website is owned by AXA IM. Here is our cookie policy for this site and the types of cookies we use on it.

What are cookies?

Cookies are small files that websites place on the device you’re using to browse the site. Cookies are commonly used to record some aspect of your visit to a site, such as choices you’ve made or preferences you’ve set during your visit.

How and why we use cookies

We use cookies to give you the best experience when you visit our website. By using cookies, we can make it easier for you to do many things, such as managing your accounts, policies, or login details, and applying for products and services. Cookies can also allow us to tailor the content of our website so we can show you services or adverts we think you may be interested in.

Keeping your personal information safe

Our cookies do not store personal information such as your name, address, or phone number in a format that can be read by others. The cookies we use cannot read or search your computer, smartphone or web-enabled device to obtain information about you or your family, or read any material kept on your hard drive.

We do use a small number of cookies that store encrypted versions of information where you have asked us to, such as the function that allows us to remember your Account username for subsequent visits. However, this is encrypted so that only AXA IM Select Limited can read this information.

The website that places a cookie owns that cookie. This means only that website and other sites that it has agreed to share information with can read the information stored using a cookie.

Links to sites provided by others

If you follow a link from our website to another website, please be aware that the owner of the other website will have their own privacy and cookie policies for their site. We recommend you read their policies as we are not responsible or liable for what happens at their site.

How to manage and switch off cookies

We currently use Trustcommander to allow you to manage your cookies via the pop out dialogue box at your entry point to the AXA IM website. You can change these at any time using the Cookie Management link in the footer. You can also use your web browser’s own settings as these allow you to manage or switch off all cookies. If you do switch off cookies, remember that you may not be able to use all of the services and functionality available on our website.

You can find out more about managing and switching off cookies at the independent website: allaboutcookies.org
