Cookie Policy
Introduction
1.1 Scope
This Cookie Policy outlines our approach to managing information collected through cookies, pixel tags, local shared objects, web storage, and similar technologies, including information that can identify a specific person (“Personal Data”).
1.2 Relation to Privacy Policy
Refer to our Privacy Policy for details on how we collect, use, disclose, transfer, and store information, including Personal Data. This Cookie Policy is incorporated into the Privacy Policy by reference and does not modify, waive, amend, or rescind any part of it.
1.3 Consent
By using our services, you consent to the use of the technologies described in this Cookie Policy, including the collection and storage of Personal Data and non-Personal Data on your device or web browser.
2. Definitions
2.1 Cookies
A cookie is a small text file placed on your web browser when you access our services. It can be read back by our services or third parties to recognize your browser and identify you as a unique user.
2.2 Pixel Tags (Clear GIFs or Web Beacons)
A pixel tag is a tiny invisible graphic placed on parts of our services, emails, or other downloadable content. It is used to track interactions but does not store information on your device unless you download the tagged content.
2.3 Local Shared Objects (Flash Cookies)
Local shared objects are stored on your device rather than your browser and can hold more data than cookies. Managing local shared objects requires different methods than managing cookies.
2.4 Web Storage
Web storage, or HTML5 local storage, is an industry-standard data storage technology implemented by internet browser providers. It stores data on your browser to support enhanced functionality.
3. Managing These Technologies
3.1 Cookies
Cookies can be session-based (lasting only for one browser session) or persistent
(remaining on your browser until deleted). You can manage cookies through your web browser’s settings, enabling you to:
· Receive notifications when new cookies are set
· Disable cookies
· Delete cookies Refer to your browser’s help section for detailed instructions.
3.2 Pixel Tags
Pixel tags cannot be managed directly as they do not store information on your device. To manage pixel tags, you must delete the content (emails or downloadable content) containing them.
3.3 Local Shared Objects
Local shared objects are stored on your device and must be managed separately from browser cookies.
3.4 Web Storage
Manage web storage settings through your browser’s help contents, as it is an industry-standard technology.
4. Use of These Technologies
4.1 Essential (Strictly Necessary)
These technologies are essential for the operation of our services. For example, we use cookies to manage server traffic and distribute workloads efficiently.

4.4 Advertising (Including Behavioral/Interest-Based Advertising)
We may use these technologies to deliver tailored advertisements both on and off our services, known as online behavioral, interest-based, or retargeted advertising. If we use
third-party service providers for this purpose, we will update this policy with their details. You can manage opt-outs for third-party providers participating in opt-out frameworks. Not all providers participate in every framework, so direct management with each provider may be necessary.
5. Third-Party Use of These Technologies
Most technologies used on our services are set by us (first-party cookies) or by third-party service providers at our direction (third-party cookies). These third-party cookies are used for the purposes described above.
