Please read this Cookie Policy in conjunction with our Privacy Policy
What are cookies?
Cookies are text files containing small amounts of information which are placed on your computer or mobile device when you visit a website or mobile application.Most cookies won’t collect information that directly identifies you as a person, and will instead collect more general information such as how visitors arrive at and use our Site. Cookies may, however, be used to create a profile of the visitor’s activities on the Internet which can be used (for example) to try to predict the visitor’s purchasing and behavioral preferences.
We use cookies to enhance the online experience of our visitors (for example, by remembering your language and/or product preferences) and to better understand how our Site is used. Cookies may tell us, for example, whether you have visited our Site 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.
Cookies are not the only way to recognize or track visitors. We may also use pixel tags (which are also known as web beacons and clear GIFs) on our Site to track the actions of users on our Site. Unlike cookies, which are stored on the hard drive of your computer or mobile device by a website, pixel tags are embedded invisibly on webpages. Pixel tags measure the success of our marketing campaigns and compile statistics about usage of the Site, so that we can manage our content more effectively. The information we collect using pixel tags is not linked to our users’ personal data.
In this Cookie Policy, we refer to all these technologies as “cookies”.
What types of cookies do we use?
Types of cookies
Session cookies: Session cookies are stored only temporarily during a browsing session and are deleted from the visitor’s device when the browser is closed.
Persistent cookies: Persistent cookies are saved on your device for a fixed predefined period of time (usually several months) and are not deleted when the browser is closed. Persistent cookies are used where we need to be able to recognize your device for more than one browsing session. Persistent cookies used on this Site generally have a maximum lifespan of thirteen (13) months; please see below for further details.
First party cookies: First party cookies are set by the website you are visiting and they can only be read by that site.
Third party cookies: Third party cookies are not set by the owner of the website you are visiting, but by a different organization. For example, advertisers and other third parties may use their own cookies when you click on an advertising or link on our Site, or we might engage a third-party analytics company that will set their own cookie to perform this service.
Categories of cookies
The different types of cookies described above can be categorized as follows:
Strictly Necessary cookies: These are cookies that are required for the operation of our Site, such as to ensure security. For example, certain cookies enable you to log into secure areas of our Site. These cookies do not require your consent and cannot be switched off (although in some cases you can change your requests). You can set your browser to block or alert you about these cookies, but some parts of our Site may not work if you block these types of cookies.
Functional cookies: These cookies are used to provide certain functionalities to you by recognizing you when you return to our Site so that we can offer you a better experience on this Site. For instance, these cookies help us to personalize our content for you, greet you by name and remember your preferences (for example, your choice of language or region, or to set a cookie to store your preferences regarding the cookies on our Site).
Analytics cookies: These cookies allow us to analyze Site usage and understand how visitors use it. These cookies recognize and collect information about the number of visitors, the pages they view, how long they view pages and how they move around our Site when they are using it. This helps us to improve the way our Site works, for example, by ensuring that visitors are easily finding what they are looking for. If you do not consent to these types of cookies we will not be able to improve our Site based on information from your visit. Analytics cookies also can be used with information from advertising cookies to help us measure the performance of our tailoring of advertising and content to your interests in order to help us improve our advertising campaigns and the Services’ content for those who engage with our advertising.
We use A/B testing cookies to improve the user experience on our Site. These cookies allow us to test different versions of our Site and measure which version performs better. A/B testing cookies do not collect any personal data about you, and they are deleted from your computer after a short period of time. If you do not want us to use A/B testing cookies, you can disable cookies in your browser settings. However, this may prevent you from using some of the features on our Site.
Marketing cookies: These cookies are used to tailor advertising and content to your interests (“Targeting”), both within and beyond our Site. These cookies collect data about your online activity, including your visit to our Site, the pages you have visited and the links you have followed. They identify your interests so that we can provide advertising that we believe is relevant to you. We will use this information to make our Site and the Targeting displayed on it, and the marketing messages we send to you, more relevant to your interests. We may also share this information with third parties who provide a service to us for this purpose. They are also used to limit the number of times you see an advertisement as well as help measure the effectiveness of the Targeting and to monitor from which Targeting source a visitor was directed towards our Site so that we know whether it is worth for us to invest in that particular Targeting source.
These cookies may be set through our Site or by our third-party Targeting partners. They may be used by those partners to build a profile of your interests and show you relevant advertisements on other sites. They do not store directly personal information, but are based on uniquely identifying your browser and Internet device. If you do not consent to these types of cookies, you will experience less targeted advertising (but not less advertising overall).
