Our site (like most platforms) uses cookies and other similar technology such as ‘web beacons’. 

What are Cookies? 

Cookies are text files containing small amounts of information which are downloaded to your computer or mobile device when you visit a website or mobile application. Cookies are then sent back to the originating site on each subsequent visit, or to another site that recognizes that cookies. You can find out more information about cookies at www.allaboutcookies.org.

Cookies are widely used in order to make sites work, or to work more efficiently, as well as to provide information to the owners of the platform. 

We use cookies to enhance the online experience of our visitors (for example, by remembering your language and/or product preferences) and to better understand how our site is used. Cookies may tell us, for example, whether you have visited our site before or whether you are a new visitor. They can also help to ensure that advertisements you see online are more relevant to you and your interests. 

Types of Cookies 

There are two broad categories of cookies: 

First Party Cookies, served directly by us to your computer or mobile device. They are used only by us to recognize your computer or mobile device when it revisits our site. 

Third party cookies, which are served by a service provider on our site, and can be used by the service provider to recognize your computer or mobile device when it visits other sites. Third party cookies are most commonly used for platform analytics or advertising purposes. 

Cookies can remain on your computer or mobile device for different periods of time. Some cookies are ‘session cookies’, meaning that they exist only while your browser is open. These are deleted automatically once you close your browser. Other cookies are ‘permanent cookies’ or ‘persistent cookies’, meaning that they survive after your browser is closed.
