This notice talks about the cookies and similar tracking technologies that we use across the websites we operate and all the services we provide to you.
What cookies/tracking technologies do we use?
A cookie is a small text file that’s placed on your computer or mobile device when you visit one of our websites. We, and some of our affiliates and third-party service providers, may use a few different types of cookies. Some are persistent cookies (cookies that remain on your hard drive for an extended period of time) and some are session ID cookies (cookies that expire when you close your browser).
We also use other tracking technologies like web beacons (sometimes called “tracking beacons” or “clear gifs”) and local storage. These are tiny graphics files that contain a unique identifier that enable us to recognise when someone has visited our websites or opened an email that we have sent them.

Cookies served through Services
User email campaigns
We automatically place single pixel gifs, also known as web beacons, in every email sent by our users. These are tiny graphic files that contain unique identifiers that enable us and our users to recognize when their subscribers have opened an email or clicked certain links. These technologies record each subscribers email address,
IP address, date, and time associated with each open and click for a campaign. We use this data to create reports for our users about how an email campaign performed and what actions subscribers took.
User sites
If a user elects to use certain Services, the use of those may permit or require additional cookies or tracking technologies to be employed. If a user connects his or her website to their account, we may install a piece of code called a JavaScript tracking snippet (“Snippet”) on that user’s website. This snippet allows cookies, pixels, and other technologies to be set on that user’s site to help them access features offered by us through the Services.
The specific cookies, pixels, or other technologies that will be set on a user’s Site depend on the features that user has chosen as part of the Services. You should review the relevant user’s privacy notice and cookie disclosures for further information about the specific types of cookies and other tracking technologies used on the Site. These optional add-ons and features include:
Google remarketing ads
Our Google ads feature lets our users create and manage ads on the Google Ads Network. When a user choose to use this feature, we install a Google tracking pixel on that user’s Site through the Snippet.
These bits of tech allow the placement of advertising campaigns on the Google Display Network and help us provide reporting to our users about the performance of their ad campaigns.
