can recognize your computer both when it visits the website in question and also when it

including to see which areas and features are popular and to count to visits to our Sites.

to track and target the interests of our users to enhance the experience on our Sites. Third
parties serve cookies through our Sites for advertising, analytics, improving user experience,
and other purposes. This is described in more detail below.

time you visit a website. These cookies know whether you have visited the site before or
not. Only on the first visit, a cookie is created and on subsequent visits the existing cookie is
used. This cookie is only for statistical purpose. For example, the following data can be

cookies. These cookies are therefore not placed without your permission.
Site improvement cookies
These allow us to test different versions of a webpage to see
which one works best. We use this to ensure that our users are always presented with the most optimal version.
How are other tracking technologies, like web beacons and device fingerprinting, used?
Cookies are not the only way to recognize or track visitors to a website. We may use other,
similar technologies from time to time, like web beacons (sometimes called “tracking pixels”
or “clear gifs”) or via the use of JavaScript (placed within the code of our Sites). Web
beacons are tiny graphics files that contain a unique identifier that enable us to recognize
when someone has visited our Sites or opened an email that we have sent them. JavaScript
is short code built into our Sites and these scripts activate when you request an HTML page
with JavaScript in it. the script is sent to the browser and sever a similar purpose to a Web
Beacon as, if the script is initiated, it allows us to infer you have either opened or done
something on a particular page.
These technologies allow us, for example, to monitor the traffic patterns of users from one
page within our Sites to another, count visits, to deliver or communicate with cookies to
understand whether you have come to our Sites from an online advertisement displayed on
a third-party website, to improve Site performance, monitor Site navigation patterns and
feature usage, and understand email reads and marketing campaign effectiveness. In many
instances these technologies are reliant on cookies to function properly, and so declining
cookies will impair their functioning. We may also use “device fingerprinting” or “browser
fingerprinting”. This is technology used to identify particular machines or browsers in order
to detect and prevent fraud and for information and network security. Declining cookies
may not affect or browser fingerprinting.
