1. What are ‘cookies’ and which ‘cookies’ does bTroo use?
Cookies are small files of data that are sent to or accessed from your web browser or your device’s memory. You can think of cookies as little helpers that make your online experience more personal and convenient. Part of the data that a cookie usually contains is the name of the domain (Internet location) from which the cookie originated, the “lifetime” of the cookie (i.e., when it expires) and a randomly generated unique number or similar identifier. Moreover, a cookie may also contain information about the device, such as user settings, browsing history and activities there were done while using our services.
We may also use other technologies such as web beacons (also called pixels), tracking URLs and software development kits (SDKs) for similar purposes as cookies. Web beacons are tiny graphics files that contain a unique identifier that enable us to recognise when someone has visited our services or opened an email we’ve sent them. Tracking URLs are custom-generated links that help us understand where the traffic to our webpages comes from. SDKs are small pieces of code included in applications, which function like cookies and web beacons.
In this Policy, tThese technologies are considered as “Cookies” as well.
