Regulations on Cookies and Tracking Technologies
System Optimization Through Cookies: Cookies are crucial for our system's operation; they remember information about your device and usage, enhancing your experience. Information such as your computer's IP address, browser type, and demographic details are stored. This helps if you are a registered user or navigating from a third-party site. Cookies are fundamental for verifying user identity and improving overall system interactions.
Cookies: Their Types and Our Reasons for Using Them
We only use cookies set by the website owner, which are called “first party cookies.” Of those cookies, we only use “essential cookies,” or cookies that are strictly necessary to provide you with the System.
Most of the cookies that we deploy are “session” cookies, which are temporary cookies that expire once you close your browser or your session ends. We also drop “persistent” cookies in limited circumstances, which are cookies that remain on your hard drive until you erase them or your browser does, depending on the cookie’s expiration date. As detailed below, we use information from cookies for purposes such as (i) identifying returning users and registrants and (ii) enabling you to move more easily around our System.
Strategies for Cookie Management
Please note: Disabling, removing, or blocking cookies may turn off some of the features of our Online Platforms that make your experience more efficient, and some Online Platforms may not function properly as a result. Further, if you opt out of having your information collected and used by us and our digital marketing partners for interest-based advertising purposes, you will continue to receive ads, but such ads will not be tailored to your specific interests based on web viewing data collected from your device over time and across unaffiliated websites.
