5. COOKIES AND SIMILAR TECHNOLOGIES
Cookies
A “cookie” is a small file created by a web server that can be stored on your device (if you allow)
for use either during a particular browsing session (a “session” cookie) or a future browsing session (a
“persistent” or “permanent” cookie). “Session” cookies are temporarily stored on your device and only
last until they expire at the end of your browsing session. “Persistent” or “permanent” cookies remain
stored on your device until they expire or are deleted by you. Local stored objects (or “flash” cookies) are
used to collect and store information about your preferences and navigation to, from, and on a website.
First-party cookies are set by the website you are visiting, and they can only be read by that site. Third-
party cookies are set by a party other than that website. You can block and control cookies using the
information noted below. If you block all cookies, certain functionalities on the Platform may not work.
Other Similar Technologies
In addition to cookies, there are other automatic data collection technologies, such as Internet
tags, web beacons, pixels (clear gifs, pixel tags, and single-pixel gifs), and navigational data collection
(log files, server logs, etc.) that can be used to collect data as you navigate through and interact with a
website. For example, pixels are small images on a web page or in an email that collect information about
your browser or device and can set cookies. UTM codes are strings that can appear in a URL when you
move from one web page or website to another. The string can represent information about your
browsing, such as which advertisement, page, or publisher sent you to the receiving website.
Web Beacons. Web beacons, also known as pixel tags or clear GIFs, are small strings of code that are
embedded into web pages and your device that allow a website or application to count users and
determine how long users visit web pages or applications. We use web beacons for website traffic
reporting, unique visitor counts, auditing and reporting, personalization, and other functions.
Tracking Pixels. A tracking pixel is a small piece of code we may use to collect and share information
on your usage of our website, such as the pages that you have visited, or the way you have interacted with
them. Through the tracking pixels, your browser automatically establishes a connection with the server of
an online advertiser. In this way, the online advertiser receives information that you access on our
website. This can allow us to ensure that we are serving ads that match your interests, when you are
visiting any of the websites of the online advertiser, or a website that includes ads served by the online
advertiser. If you are authenticated to an online advertiser using tracking pixels, e.g. by being registered
and logged in to a social network, the online advertiser can assign the visit to our website to your account.
The data we may collect through tracking pixels is anonymous and does not include any personal data of
individual users. We have no influence on the extent to which the data collected through the tracking
pixels is used by the online advertisers and therefore direct you to their privacy notices.
What Cookies and Similar Technologies Do We Use and Why Do We Use Them?
We use certain cookies and similar technologies to operate the Services, to measure and track
how you interact with the Services, to ensure the privacy and security of our Services, to enhance your
experience and provide you with a more personal and interactive experience, to provide interest-based
advertising to you, to perform usage analytics, and to otherwise tailor our communications to you.
Some of our service providers may use cookies or other methods to gather information regarding
your use of the Services and may combine the information in these cookies with personal information
about you that you may have provided or that they may have through permissible means. How and when
a third party uses that tracking information depends on their privacy policy, which you should review.
The cookies and similar technologies used on the Services include the following:
Essential: Essential cookies are strictly necessary for basic features and functionality of the
Platform and are used based on our legitimate interests in providing you with a functioning and secure
service. Without these essential cookies, the Platform will not perform properly, and we may not be able
to provide you with certain Services you have asked for, provide access to secure areas, and choices you
have made for better functionality cannot be provided. If you have chosen to identify yourself to us, we
use cookies containing encrypted information to allow us to uniquely identify you. Each time you log into
the Services, a cookie containing an encrypted, unique identifier that is tied to your account is placed on
your browser. These cookies allow us to uniquely identify you when you are logged into our website.
Functionality: Functionality cookies help us customize content on the Services based on your
preferences. We use functionality cookies to remember choices you’ve made or information you’ve
provided, such as your username or the region you are in. This allows us to tailor your experience on the
Services to your preferences. For example, authentication cookies are functionality cookies that are used
for the duration of a session (or persistent, if you agree to the “remember me” function) to allow users to
authenticate themselves on subsequent visits or gain access to authorized content across pages on the
Services.
Analytics and Performance: We use analytics and performance cookies to collect information
about how you use the Services, including which website pages you go to most often and if users receive
error messages from certain pages in order to help us fix technical issues or errors and highlight areas
where we can improve the Services. We also use these cookies to detect the most searched for words in
search engines that lead to the Services. You may also encounter third-party analytics and performance
cookies on our Services which may gather browsing activity (such as information you have entered or
choices you have made) across numerous websites that you visit and across numerous browsing sessions.
These cookies also help improve how our Services functions and performs, customizes your interaction

personalized service. These cookies remember that you visited our Services and we may share this
information with third-parties, such as advertising platforms, so that we can show you relevant offers and
direct personalized advertising to you. We may also use these cookies to target and re-target visitors to
our website with digital advertising that is most relevant to the user. These cookies are also used to limit
the number of times you see an advertisement or particular content, as well as help measure the
effectiveness of an advertising or marketing campaign.
We also use third-party digital tracking technologies on our website and receive data from such
technologies including, but not limited to, the following:
Google Analytics. Where you have explicitly consented through our cookie banner or have not
disabled third party advertising cookies (depending on your location), we use Google Analytics to collect
and process statistical data about the number of people using the Services and to better understand how
they find and use the Services. The data collected includes data related to your device/browser, your IP
address, and on-site activities to measure and report statistics about user interactions. The information

Meta Pixel. We may use Meta Pixel to customize and display advertisements only to Facebook
users who have shown an interest in our website or Services or who have specific characteristics (e.g.,
certain demographics or interests in certain topics or products determined by websites visited) that we
submit to Facebook. The use of Meta Pixel helps ensure that our advertisements are in line with the
potential interests of users and do not have a nuisance effect. Meta Pixel also allows us to track the
effectiveness of Facebook advertisements for statistical and market research purposes by seeing whether
uses have been redirected to our Services after clicking on a Facebook advertisement. The Meta Pixel is
directly integrated into our Services by Facebook and can store a cookie on your device. The information
collected about you is anonymous for us. However, the information collected via the Meta Pixel, on the
Services as well as other websites on which Meta Pixel is installed, is also stored and processed by
Facebook. Facebook may link this information to your Facebook account and also use it for its own
promotional purposes in accordance with Facebook’s Data Usage Policy.

https://www.facebook.com/about/ads. You may deactivate Meta Pixel via the Cookie Settings on
Facebook. The Settings are located at the bottom of the main page for logged in users at:

LinkedIn Pixel. We may use LinkedIn Marketing Solutions Pixel (also known as the LinkedIn
InsightTag) which is a snippet of Javascript code implemented on our Services to track page views and
conversions and to provide insight into post-click and view-through conversions of our ad campaigns on
LinkedIn. LinkedIn collects information relating to your visit to our Services, including referring address,
IP address, device, and browser characteristics. LinkedIn does not share this information with us and only

LinkedIn may use this information to serve you ads elsewhere. For more information on how LinkedIn

services and/or embed YouTube videos on our Services. These tracking technologies enable us to
understand and improve our marketing efforts, track the performance of any video content we have, and
provide you with a more personalized experience. With respect to YouTube videos embedded on our
Platform, no data about you will be transferred to YouTube if you do not play the videos. YouTube may
collect information relating to your visit to our Services, including the referring IP address, device, and
pages you accessed on our Services. Additional information on the purpose and scope of data collection
and processing by YouTube can be found in YouTube/Google’s Privacy Policy:
https://policies.google.com/privacy?hl=en&gl=de. By viewing any videos embedded on our Platform or
as part of our services, you consent to the disclosure of information to YouTube through its tracking
technologies.
How Do Our Advertising and Marketing Partners Use Cookies for Interest-Based
Advertising?
We may use third parties such as advertising networks and other content providers to serve
targeted ads on our Services and on other websites like Social Media Sites. This practice is referred to as
interest-based advertising. These advertising networks and/or content providers may use cookies and
similar tracking technologies to uniquely distinguish you, your web browser, or your device and report
certain information about your visits to our Services and other websites (e.g., web pages you visit and
your response to ads) in order to measure the effectiveness of our marketing campaigns and to deliver ads
that are more relevant to you, both on and off the Services and across your devices, including on Social
Media Sites. This information may also be used to evaluate our online advertising campaigns.
Some third parties may use data collection technologies to collect information from our Services
and combine it with other information they have collected relating to your web browser’s activities across
their network of websites, where permitted. We do not control these third parties’ technologies or how
they may be used. If you have questions about targeted content, you should contact the responsible party
directly or consult their privacy policies. Please see examples of the opt-outs offered below.
How Can You Opt-Out from Interest-Based Advertising?
Some advertising networks we may use for these purposes may be members of the Digital
Advertising Alliance (“DAA”) or the Network Advertising Initiative (“NAI”). Please visit the websites
below to learn more about interest-based advertising and to opt out of receiving personalized advertising
or content from participating third-party advertising companies:

tailored to your interests based on online behavioral information about you. To successfully opt-out, you
must have cookies enabled in your web browser (see your browser’s instructions for information on
cookies and how to enable them). Your opt-out only applies to the web browser you use, so you must opt-
out of each web browser on each computer you use. Once you opt-out, if you delete your browser’s
saved cookies, you will need to opt-out again.
Choices About Cookies

Do Not Track. Some Internet browsers may be configured to send “Do Not Track” signals to the online
services that you visit. We will respond to “Do Not Track” or similar signals. To find out more about “Do
Not Track,” please visit http://www.allaboutdnt.com.
Opt-Out Preference Signals: We recognize and honor opt-out preference signals sent through browser-
or device-based technologies, such as the Global Privacy Control (GPC), in accordance with applicable
privacy laws. If your browser or device is configured to send an opt-out preference signal (such as GPC),
we will treat that signal as a valid request to opt out of the sale or sharing of personal information and/or
targeted advertising for the specific browser, device, or user associated with the signal. This applies even
if you do not submit a separate opt-out request directly through our site. You do not need to take any
additional action beyond enabling a compatible signal in your browser or extension. To learn more or
activate a signal like GPC, visit https://globalprivacycontrol.org.
Please note that our response to opt-out preference signals may vary depending on your state of residence
and the legal requirements that apply.
6. CHATBOT INTERACTIONS
We use chatbots to help provide customer service and support, including through the use of a virtual
assistant. A chatbot is a software application that mimics human conversations in text or voice
interactions on our Services or through our customer service hotline. It enables the communication
between a human and a machine, which can take the form of messages or voice commands. The chatbot is
designed to work without the assistance of a human operator. It responds to questions posed to it in
natural language as if it were a real person using a combination of pre-programmed scripts and/or
machine learning algorithms. When asked a question, the chatbot will answer using the knowledge
database that is currently available to it. If the conversation introduces a concept it isn’t programmed to
understand; it will pass it to a human operator. If you use our chatbot service, we will collect any personal
information you provide to us. We will also create and store a transcript of your chat interaction with us
which will be shared with and stored by our third-party service provider that supports the chatbot service.
We use these transcripts and the information you provide for quality control, customer service, fraud
prevention and security.
7. RETENTION OF PERSONAL INFORMATION
We retain and use your other information for as long as is necessary to fulfill the purposes for which it
was collected, to comply with our business requirements and legal obligations, to resolve disputes, to
protect our assets, to provide our services, and to enforce our agreements.
We take reasonable steps to delete the personal information we collet when: (1) we have a legal obligation
to do so; (2) we no longer have a purpose for retaining the information; or (3) if you ask us to delete your
personal information unless we determine that doing so would violate our existing, legitimate, legal,
regulatory, dispute resolution, contractual, or similar obligations. We may also delete your information if
we believe it is incomplete, inaccurate, or that our continued storage of it is contrary to our objectives or
legal obligations. When we delete personal information, it will be removed from our active servers and
databases, but it may remain in our archives when it is not practical or possible to delete it.
To the extent permitted by law, we may retain and use anonymous, de-identified, or aggregated
information for performance reporting, benchmarking, and analytic purposes and for product and service
improvement.
8. SECURITY AND PROTECTION OF PERSONAL INFORMATION
We recognize the importance of safeguarding your personal information and we endeavor to maintain
reasonable and appropriate physical, technical, and organizational safeguards to protect your personal
information against accidental loss and unauthorized access, use, alteration, or disclosure, and to detect
fraudulent identity verification activity and mitigate risks concerning your personal information.
While our security measures seek to protect your information in our possession, no security system is
perfect, and no data transmission is 100% secure. As a result, while we strive to protect your information,
we cannot guarantee or warrant the security of any information transmitted to or from the Services. Any
transmission of personal information is at your own risk. We are not responsible for circumvention of any
privacy settings or security measures contained on the Services.

This Policy only applies to the Services and it does not apply to any third-party websites or applications.
The Services may contain links to, and media or other content from, third parties. These links are to
external resources and third parties that have their own privacy policies. Because of the dynamic media
capabilities of the Services, it may not be clear to you which links are to external, third-party resources. If
you click on an embedded third-party link, you will be redirected away from the Services to the external
third-party website. You can check the URL to confirm that you have left the Services.
We cannot and do not (1) guarantee the adequacy of the privacy or security practices employed by or the
content and media provided by any third parties or their websites, (2) control third parties’ independent
collection or use or your information, or (3) endorse any third-party information, products, services or
Services that may be reached through embedded links on the Services. Any information provided by you
or automatically collected from you by a third party will be governed by that party’s privacy policy and
terms of use. If you are unsure whether a website or application is controlled, affiliated, or managed by
us, you should review the privacy policy and practices applicable to each linked website or application.
12. CHILDREN’S PRIVACY
The Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act (“COPPA”), as well as other data privacy regulations,
restrict the collection, use, or disclosure of personal information from and about children on the Internet.
Our Services are not directed to children under the age of 18, nor is information knowingly collected from
children under the age of 18. If you are under 18, please do not use or provide any information on the
website or through our Services (including, for example, your name, telephone number, or email address).
If we learn that we have collected or received personal information from a child under the age of 18
without a parent’s or legal guardian’s consent, we will take steps to stop collecting that information and
delete it. If you believe we might have any information from or about a child under the age of 18, please
contact us via the “Contact Us” details provided at the end of this Policy.
