Cookie policy

Cookies are used to personalize your experience when using a website and to maintain the integrity of your browsing activities. An HTTP cookie (usually just called a cookie) is a simple computer file made of text. A cookie is sent in conjunction with a response to a request that you make to our server. The browser reads this cookie, as well as the rest of the response. The cookie itself is our server asking the browser to remember the data until later. As long as the browser continues to store the cookie, it will send it back with every request to the originating server.

At DataOx’s request, a browser may place cookies from our Websites and Services on your device. Accordingly, our Privacy Policy will apply to our treatment of the information we obtain via cookies. We may also allow our third party vendors or consultants to send cookies to your device. For example, we use Google Analytics for web analytics, and so Google may also send cookies to your device.

There are two types of cookies used on the Websites and Services, namely “persistent cookies” and “session cookies”. Session cookies will normally expire when you close your browser, while persistent cookies will remain on your device after you close your browser, and can be used again the next time you access the Platform.

The Websites and Services may also use other technologies with similar functionality to cookies, such as web beacons, tracking URLs to obtain Log Data about users, and click id to track conversions against campaigns. We may also use web beacons and tracking URLs in our messages to you to determine whether you have opened a certain message or accessed a certain link.

DataOx uses cookies for a number of purposes, as follows:

• to enable, facilitate, and streamline the functioning of the Websites and Services across different webpages and browser sessions;
• to simplify your access to and use of the Websites and Services and make it more seamless;
• to monitor and analyse the performance, operation and effectiveness of the Websites and Services, so that we can improve and optimize it;
• to protect your account, through techniques such as Cross Site Request Forgery protection; and to show you content that is more relevant to you.

Most browsers automatically accept cookies, but you can modify your browser setting to decline cookies by visiting the Help portion of your browser’s toolbar. If you choose to decline cookies, please note that you may not be able to sign in, customize, or use some of the interactive features of the Websites or Services.

We are constantly trying to improve our Websites and Services, so we may amend or update this Cookies Policy from time to time. We will alert you to material changes by either placing a notice on our Websites and/or by sending you an email (if you have registered your e-mail details with us) when we are required to do so.
