1. Introduction
This cookie policy (“Cookie Policy”) explains what Cookies are and how we use them. It also explains the different types of Cookies we use, and how you can change or delete them. This policy should be read together with our Privacy Policy, which explains how we collect and use personal information in general and provides details on your rights.
2. What are Сookies?
Cookies are small text files which are stored on, and accessed from, your computer or mobile device when you visit the Site or a page on the Site. We use cookies, web beacons, pixels, clear gifs and other similar tools (collectively, “Cookies“) on our Site to recognize your device from those of other Users of the Site; to improve the Site’s performance; to deliver a better and more personalized service according to the User’s individual interests and the device or browser used; to track Users’ use of the Site; to gather information about the Users’ approximate geographic location (e.g., city) to provide localized content; to prevent fraud and/or abuse; to estimate our audience size and usage patterns and perform other analytics; to develop our Site; and to administer our informational and, where applicable, re-engagement campaigns to Users across different websites and devices.
3. How long will Cookies stay on my device?
Most of the Cookies we use are erased from your device immediately after your browser session terminates (“Session Cookies”). Other Cookies remain saved on your device and enable us to recognize your device in the event of a later visit to our Site (“Persistent Cookies”). Persistent Cookies allow us to make our Site more user-friendly, effective, and safe, and to record your acceptance of our cookie preferences. Data collected through Cookies will not be kept for longer than is necessary to fulfill the purposes mentioned above.
4. First and Third-Party Cookies
First-party Cookies are Cookies that belong to us and that we place on your device. Third-party Cookies are Cookies that another party, which provides us a service, places on your device through your use of our Site. For example, to administer our Site and for research purposes, we may contract third-party service providers to track and analyze statistical usage and volume information from our Site Users. Third-party Cookies may also be placed on your device by our marketing or analytics partners so that they can help us reach audiences and understand how the Site is used.
5. Do we track whether Users open our emails?
Our emails may contain a single “web beacon pixel” which enables us to verify whether our emails (and any links within the email) are opened. We may use this information to determine whether our emails are of interest to Users, to approach Users who do not open our emails to verify whether they wish to continue receiving them, and to inform our internal analytics on engagement. Such a “web beacon pixel” will be deleted once you delete the email. If you do not wish the “web beacon pixel” to be downloaded to your device at all, please set your email client to receive emails from us in plain text rather than HTML.
