Cookie Policy

1.0 Background

This Cookie Policy is drawn up by AdGent Holdings, LLC having its principal place of business at [your business address]. It is made available to you for information purposes only.

2.0 What are cookies?

A cookie is a tiny data file, which is stored on your computer within the web browser, when certain web pages are visited. A cookie does not contain or collect information in isolation, but when read by a server via a web browser, it can give information to facilitate a more user-friendly service, such as detecting errors. A cookie will not harm your computer, and no personally identifiable information is stored from the use of this site. For more information on how cookies are used on this site, please see How We Use Cookies.

To use our website fully, you will need to have cookies enabled. If you do not wish to enable cookies, you can still browse the site; however, certain features of the site may be limited. Most web browsers have cookies automatically enabled; however, see Managing Cookies where you can find out how you can check your cookie settings. If you make no changes to the standard settings, then please be aware that you accept the browser’s standard settings and accept that cookies are active. If you do not wish to accept this, then please change your browser settings and limit or deactivate cookies.

This information is outlined as part of our efforts to comply with recent legislation and to ensure that we are open, honest, and clear about user privacy. Please refer to our Privacy Policy for more information.

3.0 How we use cookies

You may notice the presence of different types of cookies generated on your visit to this website. We use the following types of cookies:

• Session cookies, which are automatically deleted after every visit.
• Persistent cookies that remain in place during multiple visits to the site.
• Tracking cookies, which are placed on our own website and other websites that record your entries and report them back to us.
• Third-party cookies, which are used by partner websites embedded within our site or that we link to.

4.0 Session cookies

These enable you to perform essential functions on the site, such as remembering a repeat form field item within a browsing session. They also help by limiting the need to transfer information across the Internet. These are not stored on your computer and will expire when you terminate your browser session.

5.0 Persistent cookies

These enable us to recognize anonymous repeat visitors to the site. By matching an anonymous, randomly generated identifier, a record can be taken of specific browsing information such as how you arrive at the site, the pages you view, options you select, and the path taken through the site. By monitoring this information, we’re able to make improvements to the site, including the fixing of errors and the enhancement of content.

We use Google Analytics to analyze page use, page interactions, and the routes taken through our sites. These are known as ‘website metrics’ or ‘analytics’. We do not record any personal information as part of this process.

6.0 Tracking cookies

Tracking cookies aim to collect certain information to carry out various research into behavior, demographics, and, most notably, for targeted marketing. Third parties may use these on our site, and we may place such cookies on third-party websites.

7.0 Third-party cookies

When you visit our site, you may notice some cookies that are not related to our company. If you go on to a web page that contains embedded content, for example from Facebook or YouTube, you may be sent cookies from these websites. We do not control the generation of these cookies, so we suggest that you check the individual third-party websites for more information about their privacy policies and their cookies and how to manage them.

8.0 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.

We use cookies to create a profile of your browsing behavior on third-party sites and 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 the ads you see will not be matched to your interests by those specific cookies.
