Cookies are small text files placed on your device (computer, smartphone, or other electronic devices) when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites work, or work more efficiently, as well as to provide information to the website owners.
Types of Cookies We Use
1. Strictly Necessary Cookies
These cookies are essential for the website to function properly. They enable you to navigate around the site and use its features, such as accessing secure areas of the site. Without these cookies, services you have asked for cannot be provided.
2. Performance Cookies
These cookies collect information about how visitors use a website, for instance, which pages visitors go to most often, and if they get error messages from web pages. These cookies do not collect information that identifies a visitor. All information these cookies collect is aggregated and therefore anonymous. It is only used to improve how a website works.
3. Functionality Cookies
These cookies allow the website to remember choices you make (such as your username, language, or the region you are in) and provide enhanced, more personal features. For instance, a website may be able to provide you with local weather reports or traffic news by storing information about the region you are currently in. These cookies can also be used to remember changes you have made to text size, fonts, and other parts of web pages that you can customize. They may also be used to provide services you have asked for, such as watching a video or commenting on a blog. The information these cookies collect may be anonymized and they cannot track your browsing activity on other websites.
4. Targeting or Advertising Cookies
These cookies are used to deliver adverts more relevant to you and your interests. They are also used to limit the number of times you see an advertisement as well as help measure the effectiveness of the advertising campaign. They are usually placed by advertising networks with the website operator’s permission. They remember that you have visited a website and this information is shared with other organizations such as advertisers. Quite often, targeting or advertising cookies will be linked to site functionality provided by the other organization.
