a. 'session cookies' which are stored only temporarily during a browsing session in order to allow normal use of the system and are deleted from your device when the browser is closed; 

b. 'persistent cookies ' which are read only by the Site, saved on your computer for a fixed period and are not deleted when the browser is closed. Such cookies are used where we need to know who you are for repeat visits, for example to allow "pop-ups" to not be seen by the user on every visit to the site;

GDPR Privacy:

The GDPR applies to businesses in the US or any business outside the European Union. As per Article 3 of the GDPR, the territorial scope of the GDPR applies to businesses regardless of whether the processing takes place in the European Economic Area (EEA). The EDPB’s guidelines consider two criteria for the applicability of GDPR — the ‘establishment’ criteria and ‘targeting’ criteria.

1. Article 3(1) notes that any business outside the EU has to comply with the GDPR if it has an establishment (employee, agent, branch etc.) in the EU. For instance, if a US-based retailer has a branch in the EU for marketing and advertising purposes, this branch can be considered as a stable establishment under GDPR and subject to regulation.
2. According to Article 3(2), a business that targets individuals in the EU for offering goods or services (even if it’s free) or monitoring their behaviour falls under the scope of GDPR. Monitoring activities such as tracking through cookies or other technologies, behavioural advertising, geolocation, market surveys etc performed by a non-EU business can be subject to GDPR. A US business that has no establishment in the EU, but sells goods or services to consumers in the EU, will fall under the scope of GDPR in the US.

Our current business practices are not applicable to either of these sections of the EDPB Guidelines.

Advertisements

We do not use third-party advertising technology to serve advertisements when you access the Site.

Marketing

This site does not participate in any collection of personal information for marketing practices (i.e. email addresses, names, physical addresses, phone numbers).
