What Are Cookies
“Cookies” are tiny text files that are placed on your computer or mobile device that uniquely, but anonymously, identify your browser or device to help improve your experience. They are unable to search your computer in any way & contain no personal identifying information about you.
To find out more about cookies, or for more details on the types of cookies described in this Cookie Policy, visit www.aboutcookies.org or www.allaboutcookies.org.
What Are Cookies Used For
Cookies are used by sites or services when they want to know if your computer has visited that site or service before. These cookies on your computer or device may then be used to help remember your preferences (such as language), help you navigate between pages efficiently, & generally improve your browsing experience.
They are also used by web publishers to help understand how their site or service is being used. Services, such as Google Analytics, use cookies to provide anonymous aggregated data such as how long users, in general, spent on the site, how many pages they visited, & in which order.
Cookies can also be used for online advertising. By aggregating the very basic information they gather, informed guesses could be made about your demographic & ads targeted to you thusly. For example, if you go to a site about necklaces, the site may drop a cookie on your computer so the next sites you go to will then contain ads about necklaces.
As per this Cookie Policy, there are four categories of cookies that Sea Sprite may use: “Strictly Necessary”, “Performance”, “Functionality”, & “Targeting”.
