Last Updated: 16 April 2025
1. Introduction
This Cookie Policy explains how Rivelin (“we”, “us”, “our”), the trading name of Horizon Landings Limited, uses cookies and similar tracking technologies on our website (e.g., https://www.rivelin.io). It explains what these technologies are, why we use them, and your rights to control our use of them. This policy should be read alongside our Privacy Policy (/privacy-policy).
We are committed to complying with UK data protection laws, including the UK General Data Protection Regulation (UK GDPR) and the Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulations (PECR).
2. What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files that are placed on your computer or mobile device when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites work, or work more efficiently, as well as to provide information to the owners of the site.
Cookies can be “session” cookies (which expire when you close your browser) or “persistent” cookies (which stay on your device for a set period or until you delete them). They can be “first-party” (set by us) or “third-party” (set by a domain other than ours).
3. How We Use Cookies
We use cookies for several reasons:
- To ensure our website functions correctly.
- To understand how visitors use our website, helping us improve it.
- To remember your preferences, where applicable.
- To help us with our marketing and advertising efforts, including tracking the effectiveness of campaigns on platforms like LinkedIn and Facebook.
4. Types of Cookies We Use
We use the following types of cookies:
- Strictly Necessary Cookies: These cookies are essential for you to browse the website and use its features, such as accessing secure areas.

5. Third-Party Cookies
Some cookies placed on your device are set by third-party service providers. These include:

LinkedIn acts as a separate data controller for the data it collects via these cookies. You can find out more about LinkedIn’s cookie practices here: https://www.linkedin.com/legal/cookie-policy and manage your LinkedIn ad settings.
- Facebook Pixel: We use the Facebook Pixel (Meta Pixel) to measure the effectiveness of our Facebook advertising, understand the actions people take on our website after seeing our Facebook ads, build custom audiences for advertising, and retarget website visitors on Facebook and Instagram. Meta Platforms, Inc. acts as a separate data controller for the data it collects. You can learn more about Meta’s cookie usage here: https://www.facebook.com/policies/cookies/ and control your Facebook ad preferences.
