INTRODUCTION

In this policy, we use the term “cookies” to refer to cookies and other similar technologies covered by the ICO Guide to Privacy and EU Electronic Communications Regulations and the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), which gives our users the right to receive specific, up-to-date information on what data is registered about them at all times, for what purpose, and where in the world it is sent.

​

WHAT IS A COOKIE?

A cookie is a small text file that a website, including our Services, asks your browser to store on your computer or mobile device. The cookie allows the website to "remember" your actions or preferences over time. Most Internet browsers support cookies; however, users can set their browsers to decline certain types of cookies or specific cookies. Further, users can delete cookies at any time and more information about the kind of information we collect is outlined in our Privacy Policy.

​

We use cookies for important reasons, such as:

• To provide a great user experience for our users and customers;

• To monitor and analyze the performance, operation, and effectiveness of our Services;

• To ensure our Service is secure and safe to use; 

 

WHY DO WE USE COOKIES?

We use cookies to learn how you interact with our Services and to improve your experience when visiting our website(s). For example, some cookies remember your language or preferences so that you do not have to repeatedly make these choices when you visit one of our websites. Cookies may allow us to serve you specific content. We may employ the insight and learnings from your behaviour on our Service(s) to serve you with targeted advertisements on a third-party website(s) in an effort to “re-market” our products and services to you. We keep all the information collected from cookies in a non–personally identifiable format.

​​

WHAT TYPES OF COOKIES DO WE USE?

The following types of cookies are used and not limited to the following to operate our Services.

​

NECESSARY COOKIES

These are cookies that are strictly necessary for the operation of our Services. Without these cookies, our Services may not operate properly. Accordingly, we are not asking you for your specific consent for those cookies. For all other cookies, your informed consent is required.

​​​

SESSION COOKIES

These are temporary cookie files that are erased when you close your browser. When you restart your browser and go back to our Services a cookie is created.

​​​

FUNCTIONAL/PERSISTENT COOKIES

These are cookies that are set up to improve the functionality of our Services. For example, cookies that remember the content you previously viewed on this website or the email address and password you provided when registering during an earlier visit. Using Functional cookies, therefore, may allow us to serve you content tailored to your interests and save you the time of having to re-register or re-enter information when you re-visit our Services or try to access certain sections. These cookies also allow us to serve you with targeted advertising and measure the effectiveness of our site functionality and advertising.

​

FIRST PARTY COOKIES

These cookies are issued from our owned and operated domain(s) that are generally used to identify language and location preferences or identify specific Service preferences. 

​​

ADVERTISING COOKIES

We may also place cookies on our advertisements which are placed on other websites owned by third parties. Cookies and ad technology such as web beacons, pixels, and anonymous ad network tags help us serve relevant ads to you more effectively. We obtain information via those cookies when you click on or interact with the advertisement. We or our Third-Party Service provider may use the information obtained by these cookies to serve you with advertising that is relevant and of interest to you based on your past online behaviour. They also help us collect aggregated audit data, research, and performance reporting for advertisers. We do not provide any personal information that we collect to advertisers. You can opt-out of off-site and third-party-informed advertising by adjusting your cookie settings. Opting out will not remove advertising from the pages you visit, but, instead, opting out will result in the ads you see not being matched to your interests. This implies that the ad(s) you see will not be matched to your interests by those specific cookies.

 

GOOGLE ANALYTICS HTTP COOKIES

Our Services use Google Analytics as a tool that helps us to measure how users interact with our Services. Google Analytics uses JavaScript tags (libraries) to record information about the page a user has seen, for example, the URL of the page. The Google Analytics JavaScript libraries use HTTP Cookies to "remember" what a user has done on previous pages/interactions with the website.

​

WIX COOKIES

Our Services use Wix as a tool that helps us to present, structure, and store content on how our users and members interact with our Services.

​

HOW DO I REJECT AND DELETE COOKIES?

You can choose to reject or block all or specific types of cookies used by our Services by changing your browser settings. Please note that most browsers automatically accept cookies. Therefore, if you do not wish cookies to be used, you may need to actively delete or block the cookies. If you reject the use of cookies, you will still be able to visit our websites but some of the functions may not work correctly.

 

You may also visit www.allaboutcookies.org for details on how to delete or reject cookies and for further information on cookies generally. You are aware that if you use different computers in different locations, you will need to ensure that each browser is adjusted to suit your cookie preferences. By using our Services without deleting or rejecting some or all cookies, you agree that we can place those cookies that you have not deleted or rejected on your device.
