This Policy describes how and why Prothena Corporation plc and its subsidiaries (“Prothena”, “we”, “us” or “our”) uses cookies on its website (https://www.prothena.com/) (“Website”).

What are Cookies

A cookie is a small piece of data (text file) that a website or app – when visited by a user – asks your browser to store on your device in order to remember information about you, such as your last visit to our Website. Those cookies are set by us and are called first party cookies.

We also use third party cookies – these are cookies set by a domain different than the domain of the website you are visiting or a domain we are not operating – for example to analyze traffic to, and observe metrics and behaviour on, our Website and to share advertising with you.

How we use Cookies

Our Website uses persistent cookies. Persistent cookies are cookies that remain on your device for a certain period of time (as indicated in the table below) or until you manually delete them or object to them. Session cookies are cookies that expire at the end of the browser session (e.g., when you leave our Website and close your browser).

We use strictly necessary cookies to record your cookie preferences to remember you, including so you are not presented with our cookie information banner several times and for security purposes.

We use non-essential (non-strictly necessary) cookies to analyze traffic to, and observe metrics and behaviour on, our Website, which helps us improve our Website and services, as well as your overall user experience, as well as share advertising with you that may be of interest to you. We only use non-essential cookies where we have your consent (see below).

As explained above, cookies may be first party or third party, meaning they are operated by us (first party) or by another party (third party). Please note that interactions with the third party cookies on our Website are governed by the privacy and cookie policies of the third party. For more information on the third parties who use cookies on our Website please consult the below list.

Managing Cookies

If you do not agree, you can select which ones to reject or accept or can choose to “Reject All”.

You can change your cookie preferences through the cookie banner, where you have the option of opting-in or opting-out to the use of non-essential cookies on your device. However, you can also update your cookie preferences at all times by clicking on the Manage Cookie Preferences link which is included at the bottom of our Website.
