This Cookie Policy (“Cookie Policy” or “Policy”) applies to the websites operated by or otherwise provided to you by Consumer Test (respectively, the “Site/s”, and “Consumer Test”, “us” or “we”). By accessing and using the Site, you consent to the use of cookies, as described in this Policy.

We expressly reserve the right to modify this Policy from time to time. If there are any material changes to this Cookie Policy, you will be notified via the Site/s. We encourage you to periodically review this page for the latest information on our privacy practices. Your continued use of the Site constitutes your agreement to be bound by such changes to this Policy. Your only remedy, if you do not accept the terms of this Policy, is to discontinue use of the Site or to refuse accepting cookies by using your browser’s settings.

This Cookie Policy is an integral part of our Privacy Policy, and terms and definitions we used and explained in the Privacy Policy will have the same meaning in this Policy. This Policy explains:

• What cookies are
• What cookies are used when you use the Site
• How third parties use cookies on the Site
• Your cookie options
• Interest-Based Advertising

A cookie is a small text file that is stored in your web browser that allows the Site or a third party to recognize you, as a visitor (and not as an individual). Cookies might be used for the following purposes:

(1) to enable certain functions; (2) to provide analytics; (3) to store your preferences; and (4) to enable ad delivery and behavioral advertising.

Cookies can either be session cookies or persistent cookies. A session cookie expires automatically when you close your browser. A persistent cookie will remain until it expires or until you delete your cookies from your browser. Expiration dates are set in the cookies themselves; some may expire after a few minutes while others may expire after longer periods. Cookies placed by the website you’re visiting are sometimes called “first party cookies,” while cookies placed by other entities are sometimes called “third party cookies.”

Cookies are many times used with a pixel tag on the Sites. Pixel tags (also known as web beacons or clear GIFs) are typically transparent graphic images placed on a website. These pixels are used in combination with cookies to measure the actions of visitors to their websites that arrive through the services. For example, we, or our business partners may use pixel tags to track interactions on the Site/s or to understand referrals to partners from our Site/s, or, for Retargeting purposes, as we described in the Privacy Policy, or other interest-based advertising as further explained in section 5 below.

When you access and/or use the Site or interact with the services, we or a third party may place a number of cookies in your browser. Some of the cookies will only be used if you use certain features or select certain preferences, and some cookies will be used for a longer-term purpose, as described in our Privacy Policy.

Each cookie serves one of the following purposes:

• Essential Cookies: These first-party cookies allow users to use a feature of the Site such as:

(i) remaining logged in, or

(ii) making purchases.

• Analytics Cookies: These cookies track information about how the Site/s are being used so that we can improve them and report on our performance. We may also use analytics cookies to test new ads, pages, or features to see how users react to them. Analytics cookies may either be first-party or third-party cookies.

• Preference Cookies: These first-party cookies store your Site preferences.

• Ad Targeting Cookies: These third-party cookies (also known as “behavioral” or “targeted” advertising) are placed by advertising platforms or networks in order to:

(i) deliver ads and track ad performance, and

(ii) enable advertising networks to deliver ads that may be relevant based upon your activities.

Third-party entities like analytics, third-party vendors, or ad networks generally use cookies to collect user information on an anonymous basis. They may use that information to better understand users’ activities on the Site and other websites that they visited immediately after.

If you don’t like the idea of cookies or certain types of cookies, you can change your browser’s settings to delete cookies that have already been set and to not accept new cookies. To learn more about how to do this, visit the help pages of your browser. Please note, however, that if you delete cookies or do not accept them, you might not be able to use all of the features we offer, you may not be able to store your preferences, and some of our pages might not display properly.

• You may also opt-out of third-party cookies by following the instructions provided by each third party in its privacy policy.

As we explain in our Cookie Policy, cookies help you to get the most out of our Site/s and services. If you do disable cookies you may find that certain sections of our Site do not properly function.
