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. On future visits, this data is then returned to that website to help identify you and your site preferences. Our websites and mobile sites use cookies to give you the best online experience. 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.

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(s). For example, some cookies remember your language or preferences so that you do not have to repeatedly make these choices when you visit one of our websites.

What kind of cookies do we use?

We use the following categories of cookie:

Category 1: Strictly Necessary Cookies

Strictly necessary cookies are those that are essential for our sites to work in the way you have requested. Although many of our sites are open, that is, they do not require registration; we may use strictly necessary cookies to control access to some of our community sites, whitepapers or online events such as webinars; as well as to maintain your session during a single visit. These cookies will need to reset on your browser each time you register or log in to a gated area. If you block these cookies entirely, you may not be able to access gated areas. We may also offer you the choice of a persistent cookie to recognize you as you return to one of our gated sites. If you choose not to use this “remember me” function, you will simply need to log in each time you return.

Category 2: Performance Cookies

Performance cookies, often called analytics cookies, collect data from visitors to our sites on a unique, but anonymous basis. The results are reported to us as aggregate numbers and trends. LTI allows third-parties to set performance cookies. We rely on reports to understand our audiences, and improve how our websites work. We use Google Analytics, a web analytics service provided by Google, Inc. (“Google”), which in turn uses performance cookies. Information generated by the cookies about your use of our website will be transmitted to and stored by Google on servers Worldwide. The IP-address, which your browser conveys within the scope of Google Analytics, will not be associated with any other data held by Google. You may refuse the use of cookies by selecting the appropriate settings on your browser. However, you have to note that if you do this, you may not be able to use the full functionality of our website. You can also opt-out from being tracked by Google Analytics from any future instances, by downloading and installing Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on for your current web browser: https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout & cookiechoices.org and privacy.google.com/businesses

Category 3: Functionality Cookies

We may use site performance cookies to remember your preferences for operational settings on our websites, so as to save you the trouble to reset the preferences every time you visit. For example, the cookie may recognize optimum video streaming speeds, or volume settings, or the order in which you look at comments to a posting on one of our forums. These cookies do not identify you as an individual and we don’t associate the resulting information with a cookie that does.

Category 4: Social Media Cookies

If you use social media or other third-party credentials to log in to our sites, then that other organization may set a cookie that allows that company to recognize you. The social media organization may use that cookie for its own purposes. The Social Media Organization may also show you ads and content from us when you visit its websites.

Please read through each social media organization’s privacy and data protection policy to understand its use of its cookies and the tracking from our sites, and also how to control such cookies and buttons.

Category 5: Targeting/Advertising Cookies

We use tracking and targeting cookies, or ask other companies to do so on our behalf, to send you emails and show you online advertising, which meet your business and professional interests. If you have registered on our websites, we may send you emails, tailored to reflect the interests you have shown during your visits. We ask third-party advertising platforms and technology companies to show you our ads after you leave our sites (retargeting technology). This technology allows us to make our website services more interesting for you. Retargeting cookies are used to record anonymized movement patterns on a website. These patterns are used to tailor banner advertisements to your interests. The data used for retargeting is completely anonymous, and is only used for statistical analysis. No personal data is stored, and the use of the retargeting technology is subject to the applicable statutory data protection regulations. We also work with companies to reach people who have not visited our sites. These companies do not identify you as an individual, instead rely on a variety of other data to show you advertisements, for example, behavior across websites, information about individual devices, and, in some cases, IP addresses. Please refer below table to understand how these third-party websites collect and use information on our behalf and read more about their opt out options.
