Last updated: June 2024

This Cookie Notice explains how we, Bristow Group Inc. and our subsidiaries and affiliates (“Bristow”, "we", "us" and "ours") use cookies and similar technologies to recognise you when you visit our website at https://www.bristowgroup.com/ ("Website"). It explains what these technologies are and why we use them, as well as your rights to control our use of them.

If you would like to know more about how we handle your personal data more generally, please visit our Global Privacy Notice.

What are cookies?

Cookies are small data files that are placed on your computer or mobile device when you visit a website.  Website owners can use cookies for a variety of reasons, including enabling their websites to work (or work more efficiently), enhancing the functionality of the website, and providing personalised content. 

Cookies set by the website owner (in this case, Bristow via its website service provider) are called "first-party cookies".  Only the website owner can access the first-party cookies it sets.  Cookies set by parties other than the website owner are called "third-party cookies".  Third-party cookies enable third-party features or functionality to be provided on or through the website (e.g., like providing details of Bristow's share price or preventing spam / bots onto the website).  The parties that set these third-party cookies can recognise your device when it visits the website in question. 

Why do we use cookies?

We use first party and third-party cookies for several reasons. Some cookies are required for technical reasons that are strictly necessary for our Website to operate, and we refer to these as "essential" cookies. Other cookies enable us to provide Website functionality, or to enhance the visitors' experience on our Website. This is described in more detail below.

The specific types of first- and third-party cookies served through our Website and the purposes they perform are described in the table below:

What about other tracking technologies, like web beacons?

Cookies are not the only way to recognise or track visitors to a website. We may use other, similar technologies from time to time, like web beacons (sometimes called "tracking pixels" or "clear gifs"). These are tiny graphics files that contain a unique identifier that enable us to recognise when someone has visited our Website. This allows us, for example, to monitor the traffic patterns of users from one page within our Website to another, to deliver or communicate with cookies and to improve site performance. In many instances, these technologies are reliant on cookies to function properly, and so declining cookies will often impair their functioning.

How can you control cookies?

You have the right to decide whether to accept or reject cookies. You can exercise your cookie preferences through our cookie consent tool, which you can access here.

You can also set or amend your web browser controls to accept or refuse cookies. If you choose to reject cookies, you may still use our website though your access to some functionality may be restricted. As the means by which you can refuse cookies through your web browser controls vary from browser-to-browser, you should visit your browser's help menu for more information.

How often will we update this Cookie Notice?

We may update this Cookie Notice from time to time in order to reflect changes to the cookies we use or for other operational, legal or regulatory reasons, for example.  Please re-visit this Cookie Notice regularly to stay informed about our use of cookies and related technologies. 

The date at the top of this Cookie Notice indicates when it was last updated.
