Our cookie policy

Find out how we use cookies on our websites.

The Probiotic Institute (TPI) is committed to offering a transparent website experience with content relevant to your professional interests. To achieve this, we use technologies that collect, process, and analyse information about how you and other visitors use tpi.com and its associated subdomains (collectively referred to as the "website").

This Cookie Policy explains how cookies are used on the TPI website and sets out your rights as a user. The website is owned and operated by Novozymes A/S, part of the Novonesis Group, Krogshoejvej 36, DK-2880 Bagsvaerd, Denmark, CVR no. 10007127 ("Novonesis", "we", "us", or "our").

In this policy, the term "cookies" refers to cookies and other similar tracking technologies.

What is a cookie?

A cookie is a small text file placed by a website's server in your browser when you visit the site. It contains a unique code that allows us to recognise your browser and collect information about the pages you visit, the features you use, and the timing of your visits. Each cookie is unique to your web browser.

There are two types of cookies:

  • Session cookies: Temporary cookies that exist only for the duration of your visit and are automatically deleted when you close your browser.
  • Persistent cookies: Cookies that remain on your device for a set period before expiring, enabling the website to recognise your browser on subsequent visits.

Cookies set directly by TPI are known as first-party cookies. Cookies set by third parties — such as analytics or advertising partners — are known as third-party cookies. Both types are described in detail in the Cookie Table below.

Cookies help simplify and improve the interaction between users and websites. They support navigation, personalise content, and help us understand how visitors engage with our educational resources.

Most browsers support cookies, and you can configure your browser to decline certain cookies or delete cookies at any time.

Why do we use cookies?

We use cookies to enhance the accessibility and functionality of the website, personalise your experience based on your preferences, and understand how visitors engage with our educational content. This helps us continuously improve the platform.

What categories of cookies do we use?

We use the following categories of cookies:

You may withdraw your consent for functional, statistical, and marketing cookies at any time via our Cookie Preference Centre (see below).

What is a third-party cookie?

Third-party cookies are set by entities other than TPI. These may be used to collect information on user behaviour, demographics, or for personalised advertising. While using our website, you may encounter embedded video content or links to external websites that set their own cookies. We do not control the cookies placed by these third-party services.

Where third-party cookies are set by our media or advertising partners, we will inform you about these partners in the Cookie Table below and provide links to their own privacy and cookie policies.

How can you manage your preferences?

When you visit TPI for the first time, you will be asked to accept all cookies or to select which categories of cookies you consent to. Only strictly necessary cookies are required; all other categories are optional.

You can update your preferences at any time by opening the Cookie Preference Centre via the floating cookie icon at the bottom left of the page.

You may also restrict cookies through your browser settings. Please note that disabling certain cookies may affect the functionality of parts of the website. For more information on managing and opting out of targeted advertising, you can visit the Network Advertising Initiative or the Digital Advertising Alliance.

How can you delete cookies?

You can delete cookies that you have previously accepted through your browser settings. The process varies depending on your browser and device. You will typically find the option under Settings > Security and Privacy. If you use more than one browser, you will need to delete cookies in each.

How long are cookies stored?

Cookie lifetimes vary and are calculated from your most recent visit to the website. When a cookie expires, it is automatically deleted. Full expiry information for each cookie is listed in the Cookie Table below.
