What are cookies?
A "cookie" is a text file that websites send to a visitor’s computer or another internet-connected device to uniquely identify the visitor’s browser or to store information or settings on the device. Cookies are then sent back to the originating website on each subsequent visit, or to another website that recognizes that cookie. Cookies are useful because they allow a website to recognize a visitor’s device and to target the content displayed to the visitor’s interests.
Do we use cookies on the Platform and, if so, why?
Yes. By using our Platform you agree that, unless you have set your computer's browser to reject them, we can place the types of cookies set out in the table below on your device, and use that data in accordance with this policy.
We use cookies (such as HTTP and HTML5) and similar technologies (such as web beacons and JavaScript) to: (i) customize and improve Users' visits to our Platform; (ii) deliver content tailored to Users’ interests and the manner in which they browse our Platform; and (iii) manage our Platform and other aspects of our business.

Strictly Necessary Cookies
These cookies are necessary for the Platform to work, and enable you to move around the Platform and use the services and features. Disabling these cookies will encumber the Platform's performance and may make these services and features unavailable. Strictly necessary cookies are used to collect session ID and authentication data. During the time you visit the Platform, our web server assigns your browser a unique identifier string so as not to confuse you with other visitors. These are session cookies (i.e., which expire when you close your browser session). These cookies are never stored permanently on your computer and disappear when you close your browser. To use some of our Platforms without issue you need to have these cookies enabled.
Functional Cookies
Functional cookies allow the Platform to help maintain your session and remember the choices you have made in order to provide functionality for your benefit. Functional cookies are used to collect information about your language preferences and other preferences indicated during your visit to the Platform. For example, functional "session" cookies allow the Platform to remember settings specific to you, such as your country selection, which ultimately improves your web experience. Functional cookies also include persistent cookies which are used to remember your preferences when you subsequently visit our Platform.
Analytic Cookies
Analytic cookies are used to gather statistics about the use of the Platform in order to improve the performance and design of the Platform and our services. For these purposes, analytic cookies collect information about your device type, operating system type, browser type, domain, other system settings, IP address, referring URLs, information on actions taken on the Platform and the dates and times of your visits, as well as the country and time zone in which your device is located.
These cookies are provided by our third-party analytics tool providers and the information obtained through these cookies will be disclosed to, or collected directly by, these third-party service providers.
Third-Party Cookies
We partner with third parties to provide you with direct connections to certain social networks or features of social networks (such as the ability to “like” or share content from our site using your social media accounts) and to provide you with additional features. By using the Platform or engaging with third-party plugins and widgets on our Platform, such third parties may place session or persistent cookies on your device, or use similar technologies that will allow tracking of your activity on our site.
