COOKIES POLICY
Effective Date: ________
________
This Cookies Policy ("Policy") explains how ________ ("Company," "we," "us," or "our"), the operator of the website located at ________ (the "Website"), uses cookies and similar tracking technologies. This Policy is incorporated by reference into, and forms a part of, our Privacy Policy. It is intended to assist you in making informed decisions when using the Website.
By continuing to use the Website, or by affirmatively accepting cookies through any consent banner or management tool we make available, you agree to the use of cookies as described in this Policy, except where your prior consent is required by applicable law (in which case cookies that are not strictly necessary will be deployed only after such consent is obtained).
§ 1. SCOPE AND PURPOSE OF COOKIES
We use cookies and similar technologies to improve and personalize your experience on the Website. Specifically, we may use cookies to:
(a) store information for the duration of your visit ("Session Cookies");
(b) recognize your browser or device on subsequent visits ("Persistent Cookies");
(c) store your login and password information, if you choose to enable this feature;
(d) store your user settings, such as audio, language, and display preferences;
(e) analyze how the Website is used so that we may continue to improve it; and
(f) allow us and our partners to deliver, measure, and improve advertising.
§ 2. WHAT ARE COOKIES?
Cookies may be classified by duration. Session cookies expire at the end of a browser session and allow us to link your actions during that session. Persistent cookies remain stored on your device between browser sessions, allowing us to remember your preferences or actions over time.
Cookies may also be classified by origin. First-party cookies are set by the Website you are visiting, while third-party cookies are set by a domain other than the Website you are visiting.
Finally, cookies may be classified by function. Strictly necessary cookies are essential for you to browse the Website and use its features. Preference cookies allow the Website to remember choices you have made. Statistics (analytics) cookies collect information about how you use the Website. Marketing cookies track your online activity to help advertisers deliver more relevant advertising or to limit how many times you see an advertisement.
§ 3. HOW WE USE COOKIES
Technical cookies (sometimes called HTML cookies) are used for navigation and to facilitate your access to and use of the Website. They are necessary for the transmission of communications over the network or to supply services you have requested. The use of technical cookies allows the safe and efficient operation of the Website.
We also use cookies retransmitted by analytics or statistics providers to collect aggregated information about the number of users and how they visit the Website. These are treated as technical cookies when they operate solely as described.
Analytics tools may collect information through log data, such as:
- internet protocol (IP) address;
- type of browser and device;
- operating system;
- name of the Internet Service Provider (ISP);
- country information;
- date and time of visit;
- web page of origin (referral) and exit; and
- the number of clicks.
We do not use this information to identify you personally, but rather to understand usage trends on the Website.
We use session cookies to track how you browse during your visits to the Website. These are deleted automatically at the end of the browsing session and are used primarily to keep track of your activity from page to page, such as the contents of a shopping cart.
Persistent cookies remain active beyond a single session. These help us recognize you, store your login and password information (if you choose), and store your user settings.
