Cookies and Similar Technologies
Westfield may use cookies, web beacons or similar technologies on our website and mobile applications (together, "Online Services") to analyze trends, administer and optimize our products and services, and understand visitors' behaviour.
Cookies:
A cookie is a small text file placed on your device that stores information about your visit to our Online Service. Cookies allow us to recognize a specific device in order to personalize and optimize your experience.
Westfield's uses of cookies generally fall into four categories:
- Strictly Necessary: These cookies are necessary to operate our Online Services. They do not store any personally identifiable information. You can set your browser to block or alert you about these cookies, but our Online Services will not work properly without these cookies.
- Performance-Related: These cookies collect information in an anonymous manner about how visitors use our Online Services and how our Online Services perform. These cookies allow us to recognize and count the number of visitors and help us understand which pages are the most popular and where visitors spend most of their time.
- Functional: These cookies enable the website to provide enhanced functionality and personalisation, such as remembering choices you make or information you provide, what region you are in, your login information, or the pages you have viewed. They may be set by us or by third-party providers whose services we have added to our pages. If you do not allow these cookies then some or all of these services may not function properly.
- Advertising and Targeting: These cookies allow Westfield and our advertisers to deliver advertisements that are relevant to you and your interests. They may be used by us and our advertisers to build a profile of your interests and show you relevant advertisements on other sites. These cookies may track whether you clicked on an advertisement in order to limit the number of times you see a particular advertisement and help us understand the efficacy of our advertising campaigns. They do not directly store personal information, but uniquely identify your browser and device. If you do not allow these cookies, you will experience less targeted advertising.
If you wish to opt out of interest-based advertising on our website, set your preferences by clicking "Cookie Settings" below.
Our Online Services may also contain cookies that allow you to connect with social media networks such as Instagram and YouTube.

What are web beacons?
Web beacons are small graphic images that may be included on Westfield websites or other products. Web beacons help us optimize our products and services and provide Westfield and third-party partners with analytics information, such as how many visitors a site receives. We may also use web beacons to measure response to email campaigns. Web beacons are also commonly known as "clear GIFs" or "tags".
Other Technologies
Westfield may also use E-Tags, JavaScript, and Local Storage Objects. These technologies do not collect information that can be used to identify you, but may collect and store content information and preferences and visitor behaviour.
