I noticed that my bank (Halifax) sends a long numerical code to webtrends for every page that I visit. The code that it sends seems to be unique for each session. This is blocked by uBlock but it is concerning.

Different problem. That session identifier is probably unique to each session. The complaint here is that the CID is always the same for you, and can be used to look up more information (your profile)

  And it's sent as part of the host, hence plaintext.

  Just checked and it is not unique to each session :(
