           theft.

     c.  The transmission and exchange of information is carried out at your own risk. We cannot guarantee the

               read the privacy statements of each and every website that collects personal identifiable information.

​

11. Use of Cookies

        a.  What is a Cookie?

              A cookie is a small piece of data that a website asks your browser to store on your computer or mobile

              device. The cookie allows the website to "remember" your actions or preferences over time. Most Internet

              browsers support cookies, however, users can set their browsers to decline certain types of cookies or

              specific cookies. Further, users can delete cookies at any time.

         b.  Why do we use cookies?

               We use cookies to learn how you interact with our content and to improve your experience when visiting

               our website. For example, some cookies remember your language or preferences so that you do not

               have to repeatedly make these choices when you visit our website. We also use cookies to help us with

               geolocation tracking to present you with more relevant information. Additionally, cookies allow us to

               serve you specific content, such as videos on our website. We may employ the learnings of your

               behaviour on our website to serve you with targeted advertisements on third-party websites in an effort

               to “re-market” our products and services to you.

         c.  What types of cookies do we use?

                i. First-Party and Third-Party Cookies – we use both first-party and third-party cookies on our website.

                   First-party cookies are cookies issued from our domain that are generally used to identify language

                   and location preferences or render basic site functionality. Third-party cookies belong to and are

                   managed by other parties, such as our service providers. These cookies may be required to render

                   certain forms within our website.

                ii. Session Cookies - Session cookies are temporary cookies that are used to remember you during your

                    visit to the website, and they expire when you close the web browser.

                iii. Persistent Cookies - Persistent cookies are used to remember your preferences within the website

                     and remain on your desktop or mobile device even after you close your browser or restart your

                     computer. We use these cookies to analyse user behaviour to establish visit patterns so that we can

                     improve our website functionality for you and others who visit our website. These cookies also allow

                     us to serve you with targeted advertising and measure the effectiveness of our site functionality and

                     advertising.

         d.  How are cookies used for advertising purposes?

               Cookies and ad technology such as web beacons, pixels, and anonymous ad network tags help us

               serve relevant ads to you more effectively. They also help us collect aggregated audit data, research,

               and performance reporting for advertisers. Pixels enable us to understand and improve the delivery of

               ads to you and know when certain ads have been shown to you. Since your web browser may request

               advertisements and web beacons directly from ad network servers, these networks can view, edit, or set

               their own cookies, just as if you had requested a web page from their site. Although we do not use

               cookies to create a profile of your browsing behaviour on third-party sites, we do use aggregate data

               from third parties to show you relevant, interest-based advertising. We do not provide any personal

               information that we collect to advertisers. You can opt out of off-site and third-party-informed

               advertising by adjusting your cookie settings. Opting out will not remove advertising from the pages you

               visit, but, instead, opting out will result in the ads you see not being matched to your interests. This

               implies that the ad(s) you see will not be matched to your interests by those specific cookies.

         e.  How are third party cookies used?

               For some of the functions within our website we use third party suppliers, for example, when you visit a

               page with videos embedded from or links to YouTube. These videos or links (and any other content from

               third party suppliers) may contain third party cookies, and we encourage you to consult the privacy

               policies of these third party vendors on their websites for information regarding their use of cookies.

          f.  How do we reject and delete cookies?

              You can choose to reject or block all or specific types of cookies set by virtue of your visit to our website

              by clicking on the cookie preferences on our website. You can change your preferences for our website

              and/or the websites of any third party suppliers by changing your browser settings. Please note that

              most browsers automatically accept cookies. Therefore, if you do not wish for cookies to be used, you

              may need to actively delete or block the cookies. If you reject the use of cookies, you will still be able to

              visit our website but some of the functions may not work correctly. By using our website without deleting

              or rejecting some or all cookies, you agree that we can place those cookies that you have not deleted or

              rejected on your device.
