How We Use Cookies and Identifiers?

Cookies may be either "persistent" cookies or "session" cookies. A persistent cookie consists of a text file sent by a web server to a web browser, which will be stored by the browser and will remain valid until its set expiry date (unless deleted by the user before the expiry date). A session cookie, on the other hand, will expire at the end of the user session, when the web browser is closed. The types of Cookies we use include:

Strictly necessary Cookies. These are Cookies that are required for the operation of the website. They include, for example, Cookies that enable users to log into secure areas of the website.

Analytical/performance Cookies. They allow website providers to recognise and count the number of visitors and to see how visitors move around the website when they are using it. This helps website providers to improve the way the website works, for example, by ensuring that users are finding what they are looking for easily.

Functionality Cookies. These are used to recognise users when users return to the website. This enables website providers to personalise our content for you, remember a user’s preferences (for example, a user’s choice of language or region). They also help make the shopping cart and checkout process possible as well as assist in security issues and conforming to regulations.

Targeting Cookies. These Cookies record a user’s visit to the website, the pages a user has visited and the links a user have followed. Website providers will use this information to make the website more relevant to users.

Google Analytics Cookies and Identifiers. We use Google Analytics which is a web and application analytics tool that helps us understand how users engage with our Website and Products. Identifiers such as cookies and app instance IDs are used to measure user interactions with a customer’s sites and/or apps, while IP addresses are used to provide and protect the security of the service, and to give the customer a sense of where in the world their users come from.

Google Analytics mainly uses first-party cookies to report on visitor (aka. user) interactions on Google Analytics customers’ websites. Users may disable cookies or delete any individual cookie. Learn more

In addition, Google Analytics supports an optional browser add-on that - once installed and enabled - disables measurement by Google Analytics for any site a user visits. Note that this add-on only disables Google Analytics measurement.

Our Products use Google Analytics to collects an app-instance identifier — a randomly generated number that identifies a unique installation of an App. Google Analytics also collects Internet Protocol (IP) addresses to provide and help protect the security of our service, and to provide a sense of which country, state, or city in the world our users come from (also known as "IP geolocation").
