Definitions - What is:

Cookie - A cookie is basically a text file, a technology that enables us to, through the website, store tokens of information called Identifier in your internet browser as you visit our website. Each time you visit our website or other websites that recognize that specific identifier, a cookie is sent back to us. Cookies are generally used to make websites work efficient and to provide the owner of the website with information about the visitor.

Cookies have a lot of different functions and provide us with information about you like remembering your preference, helping you navigate pages and improving your experience on the website. It is cookies that make sure that the online adverts are relevant to your interests.

When you land on the Kognic website a pop-up provides you with the decision to accept or decline our cookies for different functions (see below).

When you enter the app, you get a brief explanation of what cookies we use and for what purposes.

There are two main categories of cookies:

  • First party cookies, meaning we put and serve them directly on your device.
  • Third party cookies, which are, on our behalf, served by a third party.

Cookies can remain on your device for different amounts of time. Session cookies only exist as long your web-browser is open and are deleted automatically. Others stay much longer and are called Persistent cookies, they survive the web-browser when closed and can be used by the website to recognize you again.

If you have enabled “Do not track” in your settings on the browser, the advertising/targeting cookies will automatically be disabled.

Beacons and Action tags - a beacon or action tag is a visitor identification technology that counts visitors based on what websites they have visited previously and being exposed to tags or beacons. We don’t use this technology to collect personal information but only statistics of our visitors in relation to marketing efforts.
