3. COOKIES AND ALTERNATIVE TRACKING TECHNOLOGIES
We collect information from users of our Services using “cookies” and similar tracking methods as described below.
Cookies. Cookies are small data files stored on the hard drive of your computer or mobile device by a website. They save data on your browser about your visits to our sites and other sites. We use both session cookies (which expire once you close your web browser) and persistent cookies (which stay on your computer or mobile device until you delete them, or after a set period that varies depending on the cookie).
We use two broad categories of cookies: (1) first party cookies, served directly by us to your computer or mobile device, which are used only by us to recognize your computer or mobile device when it revisits our Services; and (2) third party cookies, which are served by service providers on our Services, and can be used by them to recognize your computer or mobile device when it visits other websites. You can choose whether to accept cookies by editing your browser settings, but if you refuse cookies, it might affect your experience on the site.
Pixel tags. Pixel tags (also known as web beacons, GIFs or bugs) are code embedded invisibly on webpages. They track the actions of users on our Services, including whether you have opened these web pages or messages. Upon firing, a pixel logs a visit to the current page or message and may read or set cookies. We use pixel tags to measure the success of our marketing campaigns and compile statistics about use of the Services, so that we can enhance user experiences on our Services. The information we collect using pixel tags is not linked to our users’ Personal Data.
Our Services use the following types of cookies and other trackers for the purposes described below:
- Essential Trackers – These cookies are essential to provide you with services available through our Services and to enable you to use some of its features. For example, we use session cookies to provide you secure access to your account details and prevent others from accessing your account. Without these cookies, the Services that you have asked for cannot be provided, and we use these cookies only to provide you with those Services.
- Functionality Trackers – These cookies allow us to remember choices you make when you use our Services, such as your language preferences, login details and search filter choices to help prefill search forms on subsequent visits. The purpose of these cookies is to provide you with a more personal experience and avoid your having to re-enter your preferences every time you visit our Services.
- Analytics and Performance Trackers – These trackers collect information about how you and other visitors use our Services, such as the number of visitors, the websites that referred them, the pages they viewed while using our Services, the time of day they visited our Services, whether they have visited our Services before, and other similar information. We use this information to help operate our Services more efficiently, to gather broad demographic information and to monitor the level of activity on our Services.
- We use Google Analytics for these purposes. You can find out more information about Google Analytics tracking here: www.google.com/analytics/learn/privacy.html.
- You can opt out of our use of Google Analytics by downloading and installing the browser plugin available via this link: http://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=en-GB.
- Targeted and Advertising Trackers – These trackers track your browsing habits to enable us to show advertising that is more likely to be of interest to you. They use information about your browsing history to group you with other users who have similar interests. We permit vendors to place cookies so they can display advertising relevant to your interests while you are on third party websites.
Cookie Alternative Technologies
When you visit our site, our digital and marketing vendors and partners may use pseudonymous personal information (e.g., hashed email addresses, proprietary IDs, device identifiers, etc.) and other information (e.g., IP addresses, click stream information, browser type, statistical identifiers calculated from data shared by a browser or device, time and date stamps, the subject of advertisements clicked or scrolled over) to decide what type of advertisements that might interest you. They may be able to link two or more devices or browsers believed to belong to the same user or household for similar advertising-related purposes. Any of the linked trackers may have certain interests and other demographic information attributed to it. Your web browser settings may not permit you to block the use of these technologies, and browser settings that block cookies may have no effect on such technologies.
Managing Trackers
When you first visit the Services, you may receive a notification that trackers are present. By clicking “accept,” you agree to the use of these trackers as described here. You can manage the tracker settings by opting out of any or all trackers. You can also refuse, or accept, trackers from our site (or any other site) in your browser’s settings.
Most browsers automatically accept cookies, but they readily allow users to adjust this default setting. Please note that if you refuse trackers, you might not be able to sign in or use other tracker-dependent features of our Services.
Because the “Do Not Track” browser-based standard signal has yet to gain widespread acceptance, we do not currently respond to those signals. However, we aim to respond to the Global Privacy Control in certain territories, including Europe and California. When we detect a GPC signal from a reader’s browser where European, California or a similar privacy law applies, we stop sharing the person’s Personal Data online with other companies (except with our service providers).
Location Services
We may, from time to time, offer certain location or pinpoint based services, such as location-assisted navigation instruction. If you elect to use such services, we must periodically receive your location in order to provide them. By using the location-based services, you authorize us to: (i) locate your hardware; (ii) record, compile and display your location; and (iii) publish your location to third parties by means of location publication controls available within the Applications. As part of these Services, we may also collect and store certain information about the users who elect to use them, such as a device ID, in order to provide the Services. We may use third-party vendors to help provide these Services through mobile systems and we may make information available to them to enable them to provide the Services. These service providers are permitted to use the information only in accordance with this Policy.
