Cookies and Tracking Notice
Effective date 18th September 2023
In our ongoing commitment to maintain a high level of transparency in our Privacy Policy, we have prepared this guide to clarify the tracking technologies utilized across our websites.
What are cookies, web beacons, and comparable technologies?
In general, there are two types of tracking technologies that we may employ on our websites:
-
Cookies: These are small data files sent from a server to your web browser or mobile device, where they are stored in your browser's cache or on your mobile device. You have the option to manage your cookie preferences and decide whether you want to accept or decline cookies (see your choices below).
-
Clear gifs, web beacons, and web bugs: These are minute graphics equipped with a unique identifier, serving a function similar to cookies. They are used to monitor the activities of web users across different pages and websites. Unlike cookies, which are stored on a user's computer, clear gifs, web beacons, and web bugs are discreetly embedded within web pages and are about the size of a single pixel.
How are these technologies utilized?
We employ these tracking technologies for several broad purposes, including:
- Ensuring the proper functioning of our websites.
- Evaluating the performance of our websites and identifying areas for enhancement.
- Enhancing your user experience on our websites, such as eliminating the need to repeatedly enter your information or keeping a record of your purchases.
- Collecting pertinent data that aids in delivering marketing and advertising content tailored to your interests.
On occasion, we may collaborate with third-party services that use various tracking technologies to provide specific services or features on our websites, such as targeted online marketing or pertinent on-site messaging. These third-party services employ cookies to gather data anonymously and enable them to recognize your computer or mobile device each time you visit our websites. No personally identifiable information is obtained through these cookies. The anonymous data they gather is kept separate from the personal information we collect about you as a user.
