Analytics
New Media Writing Prize uses Chartbeat to monitor real time traffic. This system is completely anonymous and does not use cookies.

Cookies
New Media Writing Prize does not use any cookies that store personal or sensitive data. Our site occasionally uses 'caching' which means it stores some of its less frequently updated pages in an optimised way to make them faster to download to site visitors. When major updates to the site are pushed out, you may notice an anonymous cookie called wpSGCacheBypass. This cookie contains a single alphanumeric value to instruct your browser to bypass any previously stored pages to make sure you see the most up-to-date content.
New Media Writing Prize is protected by WP Cerber, a leading website security solution that protects the site against hacker attacks, spam, and malware. WP Cerber sets several anonymous browser cookies with the sole purpose of securing the website by detecting and mitigating malicious activity. These cookies have randomly generated names and contain randomly generated values. No personal or sensitive data is stored.
What do the cookies contain?
The cookies used by WP Cerber contain randomly generated alphanumeric values. No personal data is used. WP Cerber’s cookies are strictly necessary and no natural person is associated with them. The cookies used by Google Analytics do not contain any personal information and your IP address is anonymised. These cookies are used to distinguish individual site visitors. They contain a unique set of numbers that show whether you are a new visitor to New Media Writing Prize or a returning one. They form a unique, persistent, and non-personally identifiable 'number string' that represents you as a site visitor.
This information lets us know how much traffic we get to which pages, how long people spend on those pages, how people actually find the New Media Writing Prize website, and helps us learn how to improve the site in the future.
*Note that the cookie_notice_accepted cookie (!) stores a value of true or false so that we know whether you have accepted our cookie privacy policy.
