Retrieve it with getValue()

$type->getValue();

It'll be an array with ONLY the elements that were checked.

i.e

<input type="checkbox" name="type[]" id="campaign_id" value="1" />
<input type="checkbox" name="type[]" id="campaign_id" value="2" />

will return an array like this (IF both are checked)

Array
(
    [0] => 1
    [1] => 2
)

if say only checkbox 2 was checked the array will be

Array
(
    [0] => 2
)

If no checkboxes were checked the getValue() will return NULL
