Guidelines on Cookies

How We Use Cookies: When you visit our sites, we may place a small file known as a cookie on your device to improve your experience by making our website more responsive to your needs. We collect data through cookies to better understand our audience, which helps us tailor content and enhance your user experience. Our cookies are primarily designed to enhance site functionality and gather anonymized behavioral data, not to store sensitive personal details.

#1 Purpose and Use of Cookies by Us

Required or strictly necessary cookies. These cookies are essential for our websites to operate correctly and to provide you with requested services. For example, we use cookies to authenticate you, so when you log on to Organization websites, we know who you are.
Functionality cookies. We use functionality cookies to enhance website features, such as videos and live chat, and for personalization, such as storing your preferences (e.g. username and language selection). Functionality cookies may be set by Organization or by third parties whose services we have added to our websites. If you do not allow these cookies, you may not be able to use some portions of our websites or technology network, and some website may not work properly.
Social media cookies. Social media cookies may be set by third parties to collect information about your social media usage.
Analytics cookies. Analytics cookies collect information about your use of our websites and technology network, and help us improve the way it works. For example, analytics cookies identify the most frequently visited pages, record any difficulties you have, and show whether our advertising is effective. This allows us to see the overall patterns of usage, rather than the usage of a single person. We use the information to analyze the websites' traffic.
Targeting/advertising cookies. We use targeting/advertising cookies to create profiles and personalize content. We may use third party products, such as Analytics, to market Organization’s services to you on third party websites. For example, if you visit Organization websites, you may then see advertisements for Organization on other websites.

#2 Use of Tracking Technologies and Cookies by Third Parties

Some cookies may be placed on your device by third-party service providers that we use on our website, such as analytics providers and advertisers. These cookies are subject to the respective privacy policies of these third parties.

#3 Operational Limitations Without Cookies

Decision to Reject Cookies: Setting your browser to not accept cookies is an option you may choose. Doing so, however, might impact the operability of certain website sections. We utilize technologies such as web beacons (also known as clear gifs) to monitor and track user interactions on specific parts of our website.

#4 General Provisions

Preservation of Personal Information

We store Personal Data only as long as necessary to fulfill the objectives stated in our Privacy Policy. We may retain Usage Data for deeper analysis to strengthen security or enhance the functionality of our Service, or as required by law.
