Cookie Policy for www.yotta.com
Our Privacy Policy explains our principles when it comes to the collection, processing, and storage of your information. We at Yotta advise you to carefully read this cookie notice (“Notice”), together with the website privacy notices that you are aware of how, where and why we are using your Personal data.
PURPOSE
We use cookies and other technologies to ensure that any person who uses our website gets the best possible experience.
In this notice we have provided detailed information about how and when we use cookies.
APPLICABILITY
This notice applies to all individuals visiting our website and to all the information that is collected through cookies.
What are cookies?
Cookies are small pieces of data, stored in text files, that are stored on your computer or other device when websites are loaded in a browser. They are widely used to “remember” you and your preferences, either for a single visit (through a “session cookie”) or for multiple repeat visits (using a “persistent cookie”). They ensure a consistent and efficient experience for visitors, and perform essential functions such as allowing users to register and remain logged in. Cookies may be set by the site that you are visiting (known as “first party cookies”), or by third parties, such as those who serve content or provide advertising or analytics services on the website (“third party cookies”).
Both websites and HTML emails may also contain other tracking technologies such as “web beacons” or “pixels.” These are typically small transparent images that provide us with statistics, for similar purposes as cookies. They are often used in conjunction with cookies, though they are not stored on your computer in the same way. As a result, if you disable cookies, web beacons may still load, but their functionality will be restricted.
How we use cookies?
We use Personal data captured through cookies to make your interaction with us faster and more secure. They may be used for the following purposes:
Some cookies are necessary for technical reasons, security & optimization some enable a personalized experience for both visitors and registered users; and some allow the display of advertising from selected third party networks. Some of these cookies may be set when a page is loaded, or when a visitor takes a particular action (clicking the “like” or “follow” button on a post, for example).
Many of the cookies we use are only set if you are a registered Yotta.com user (so you don’t have to log in every time, for example), while others are set whenever you visit one of our websites, irrespective of whether you have an account.
