This Cookie Policy (“Policy”) explains that we believe in being open and clear about how we use your information when you visit our Website.

2. What are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files that are placed on your hard drive by a web page server. Cookies contain information that can later be read by a web server in the domain that issued the cookie to you.

There are several types of cookies:

Session Cookies provide information about how a website is used during a single browser session while a user is visiting a website and usually expire after the browser is closed.

Persistent Cookies remain on your device between different browser sessions for a set amount of time in order to enable the website to remember user preferences, settings, or actions across other sites.

First-Party Cookies are cookies set by the website you are visiting. They have the same domain or subdomain as what is in your browser’s address bar.

Third-Party Cookies are set by third parties that are different from the website you are visiting. These cookies have a different domain or subdomain than what is in your browser’s address bar.

Web beacons, tags and scripts may be used in the Websites or in emails to help us deliver cookies, count visits, understand usage and campaign effectiveness and determine whether an email has been opened and acted upon. More information about each cookie can be found by viewing our current cookie list below, which is updated periodically to include additional cookies that are not yet listed.

3. Do we use Cookies?

Yes. We, our marketing partners, affiliates, and analytics or service providers use cookies and other technologies to ensure everyone who uses the Website has the best possible experience.

4. Why do we use Cookies?

Like many websites, we use cookies, web beacons and other similar technologies to administer our website, improve your experience and remember your preferences. Cookies do a lot of different jobs. Some cookies are necessary for the performance of the Website. For example, some First Party cookies hold session information to allow you to navigate from page to page within the Website. Other cookies store information that helps us provide you with more relevant information or advertising that may interest you. When you visit our Website, we, or our partners or affiliates, may use cookies to store information that helps secure and administer our Website, provide you with an improved user experience, and for advertising purposes.

5. How to control Cookies

Many web browsers are set up to accept cookies automatically, but you may change your cookie preferences through the options available in the Cookie Consent Manager. The Cookie Consent Manager allows you to withdraw your consent on the cookies and lets you select which categories of cookies you accept or reject. Essential cookies cannot be rejected as they are strictly necessary to provide you with the services.

The Cookie Consent Manager can be found in the notification banner and on our website. If you choose to reject cookies, you may still use our website though your access to some functionalities and areas of our website may be restricted. You may also set and amend your web browser controls to accept or refuse cookies.
