Cookies can be categorized as session cookies or persistent cookies. A session cookie is deleted when you close your browser, while a persistent cookie remains until it expires or until you remove all cookies from your browser. The expiration times for cookies can vary, with some expiring after a few minutes and others lasting for an extended period. Cookies placed by the website you are currently visiting are known as "first-party cookies," while those placed by third parties are called "third-party cookies."

Cookies are often used in conjunction with pixel tags on websites. Pixel tags, also known as web beacons or clear GIFs, are typically transparent images embedded on a website. These pixels work alongside cookies to track the behavior of visitors who access the website through their services. For example, we or our business partners may utilize pixel tags to monitor interactions on the Site/s, understand referrals to partners from our Site/s, support retargeting efforts (as explained in the Privacy Statement), or engage in other interest-based advertising (as further detailed in Section 5 below).

  • Essential Cookies: First-party cookies serve essential functions for users on the Site, such as allowing you to (i) remain logged in or (ii) complete purchases.
  • Analytics Cookies: These cookies collect data on how the Site is utilized to improve its performance and provide insights. We may also use analytics cookies to assess the effectiveness of new advertisements, pages, or features and understand user reactions to them.

  • Preference Cookies: These first-party cookies store your preferences on the website.
  • Ad Targeting Cookies: These third-party cookies, sometimes referred to as "behavioral" or "targeted" advertising cookies, are set by advertising platforms or networks. Their purpose is to (i) deliver advertisements and monitor the performance of ads and (ii) allow advertising networks to deliver ads that might be of interest to you based on your online activities.
  1. How third parties use website data?
