What Are Cookies? Cookies are small text files that are sent to or accessed from your web browser or your device’s memory. A cookie typically contains the domain name (internet location) from which it originated, its “lifespan” (i.e., when it expires), and a randomly generated unique number or a similar identifier. Additionally, cookies may contain information about your device, such as user settings, browsing history, and activities performed while using our services.
Are There Different Types of Cookies?
First-Party and Third-Party Cookies
There are first-party and third-party cookies. First-party cookies are placed directly on your device by us. For example, we use first-party cookies to tailor our website to your browser’s language preferences and to better understand your use of our website. Third-party cookies are placed on your device by our partners and service providers. You can find more information about these partners and service providers on our website and in our in-app consent management tools. For details on these tools, see “How Can You Control Cookies?” below.
Session and Persistent Cookies
There are session cookies and persistent cookies. Session cookies remain only until you close your browser. We use session cookies for various reasons, including to better understand how you interact with our website during a single browsing session and to help you use our website more efficiently. Persistent cookies have a longer lifespan and extend beyond the current session. These types of cookies can be used to help you quickly log back into our website for analytical purposes and for other reasons outlined below.
What About Other Tracking Technologies Like Web Beacons and SDKs?
Other technologies, such as web beacons (also known as pixel tags or clear GIFs), tracking URLs, or software development kits (SDKs), serve similar purposes as cookies. Web beacons are small graphic files containing a unique identifier that helps us understand when someone visits our service or opens an email we have sent. Tracking URLs are specially generated links that help us understand where traffic to our webpages is coming from. SDKs are small pieces of code within apps that function like cookies and web beacons.
For simplicity, we refer to these technologies as “cookies” in this Cookie Policy.
What Do We Use Cookies For?
Like other online service providers, we use cookies to provide, secure, and enhance our services. This includes remembering your preferences, recognizing you when you visit our website, measuring the success of our marketing campaigns, and personalizing and adapting advertisements to your interests. We may also link information from cookies with other personal data we hold about you.
When you use our services, some or all of the following types of cookies may be placed on your device:

Essential Cookies: These cookies are strictly necessary to provide our services, including enabling you to log in, remembering your preferences, and keeping you safe by detecting malicious activities.
Analytics Cookies: These cookies help us understand how our services are used and enable us to customize and improve them for you.
Advertising and Marketing Cookies: These cookies are used to determine the effectiveness of our marketing campaigns and to make the ads you see more relevant to you. They help us measure the traffic brought to our services by marketing campaigns, prevent the same ad from continuously reappearing, ensure ads are displayed correctly to advertisers, select suitable ads for you, and measure the number of times an ad is displayed and its performance, such as how many people interacted with a particular ad.

Some web browsers provide settings that allow you to control or reject cookies or alert you when a cookie is placed on your device. The process for managing cookies varies slightly for each internet browser. You can check the specific steps in your browser’s help menu.
Additionally, you can reset device identifiers or disable their collection or processing using the appropriate setting on your mobile device. The procedure for managing identifiers varies for each device. You can check the specific steps in your device’s help or settings menu.
