This website, studentjobs.ey.com, uses cookies, pixel tags, Web Beacons and other web technologies to improve the website’s performance and to enhance your browsing experience. Certain areas of the website also use cookies to understand more about you, so we can offer you a more personalized browsing experience. We use a simple counter, without storing any information on your device, to count the number of visitors who accept or decline our cookies.
You can find out more about cookies and how to manage them in the information below. You can change your cookie settings and disable some or all cookies for the website at any time at studentjobs.ey.com. You can also change your browser settings so that cookies cannot be placed on your device.
If you have any questions in relation to the cookies we use please contact us.
What are Web Beacons?
The EY organization occasionally advertises on third-party web sites. As part of our effort to track the success of our advertising campaigns, we may at times use a visitor identification technology such as “web beacons” or “action tags,” which count visitors who have come to the website after being exposed to an EY banner ad on a third-party site. We do not use this technology to access your personal information and it is only used to compile aggregated statistics about visitors who come to the website to gauge the effectiveness of our ads.
What is a cookie?
A “cookie” is a technology that allows the website to store tokens of information (an “identifier”) in your browser used by the website while you are on the website. Cookies are then sent back to the website on each subsequent visit, or to another webpage that recognizes that cookie. Cookies are used in order to make the website work, or to work more efficiently, as well as to provide information to the owners of the website.
Cookies do lots of different jobs, like letting you navigate between pages more efficiently, remembering your preferences and generally improving the user experience. Cookies may tell us, for example, whether you have visited the website before or whether you are a new visitor. They can also help to ensure that adverts you see online are more relevant to you and your interests.
When landing on the website, you have been given the opportunity to accept cookies used on the website, to accept certain categories of cookies and decline others, or to decline all cookies. If you have accepted our use of some or all cookies, the following information relates to cookies used on the website only. Please note that any consent to accept or to decline cookies is limited to the student jobs website and not to other local EY sites or any other pages, which may be hyperlinked to our website or portal. For more information on cookies used by those websites, please refer to the specific privacy notice or cookie policy on those websites. If you have any questions please contact us.
There are two broad categories of cookies:
- First-party cookies, served directly by us to your device.
- Third-party cookies, which are served by a third party on our behalf.
Cookies can remain on your computer or mobile device for different periods of time. Some cookies are “session cookies,” meaning that they exist only while your browser is open. These are deleted automatically once you close your browser. Other cookies are “permanent cookies,” meaning that they survive after your browser is closed. They can be used by the website to recognize your computer when you open your browser and browse the Internet again.
