Cookies and Similar Technologies Policy

What is a cookie?

A cookie is a small text/data file that is downloadable to your device—whether it's a computer, tablet, or mobile phone—when you visit our websites or interact with our advertisements online. These cookies include a unique identifier called a cookie ID, which consists of a specific sequence of characters. This ID allows websites and servers to identify and communicate with the specific internet browser where the cookie is stored.

Since each browser has its own cookie ID, websites and servers can differentiate between different browsers. This means that if you revisit a website using the same browser, the website can recognize it and adapt its content or services based on your previous activity and preferences. Cookies enable our websites to customize the information and offers displayed, ensuring a more personalized and user-friendly experience tailored to your needs.

Local storage of cookies involves storing various types of data locally on your device through your web browser. This stored data can include your preferences, details about how you navigate our website, the browser you're using, advertisements you’ve seen, and interactions on partner websites.

These cookies serve multiple purposes. Some are essential for our services to function properly, while others offer additional features, improve performance, or help us refine our website to provide you with an optimal browsing experience. They may also be used to deliver relevant and personalized advertisements.

We use cookies and similar technologies that only remain on your device for as long as you keep your browser active (session), and cookies and similar technologies that remain on your device for a longer period (persistent).You have the option to block, delete, or disable these cookies if your device permits it. You can manage your cookies and your cookie preferences in your browser or device settings.

Third party service providers

We work with third-party service providers ("authorised service provider") to support various aspects of our business operations and help deliver our services effectively. These authorised service providers may place third-party cookies or similar technologies on your device through our platform. With our authorization, they use these cookies to collect data from our websites, applications, and tools.

Importantly, these authorised service providers are prohibited from using or collecting your personal information for their own purposes while operating within our platform. They are bound by strict confidentiality agreements and legal obligations to ensure your personal data is handled responsibly. It’s worth noting that the use of third-party cookies is governed by the privacy policies of the respective third parties.

By assessing our website - www.K33.com, you consent to us or any authorized service provider placing cookies in your browser.

Types of cookies

There are several types of cookies:

Cookie based on storage:

Session cookies: These contain only data from your current visit. They are temporary, expire at the end of your browser session and allow us to link your actions during that particular browser session. Once the browser window closes, all session cookies are removed from the device.
Persistent cookies: These are stored on your device for a specified period defined within the cookies. A persistent cookie activates each time you visit the website that created that particular cookie, allowing us to remember your preferences or actions across multiple sites. Persistent cookies can be manually deleted on your device.

Cookie based on domain:

First-party cookies: These cookies are set by the web server of the visited page and share the same domain. This is local storage that K33 sets itself, among other things, to ensure the website works and to provide the best possible user experience.
Third-party cookies: These are set by a third party site separate from the site you are visiting. In addition, a website might potentially use external services, which also set their own cookies, known as third-party cookies.

Other similar technologies

Web beacons, often referred to as pixel tags or tracking pixels, are tiny, transparent images—typically just 1x1 pixel in size—embedded discreetly within web pages and emails. These pixels require a request (a call) to our servers to display, which allows us to collect information about your device and visit. By using web beacons, we can gain insights into how you engage with email and web content, such as whether you’ve interacted with ads or posts.

Additionally, web beacons allow us and certain third parties to place cookies on your browser. By combining web beacons with cookies, we can better understand your interactions with our websites and emails, enhance your browsing experience, deliver content that’s more relevant to your interests, and optimize how we manage our digital platforms.

Any interaction you have with these features is subject to the privacy policies of the respective companies providing them. Additionally, we may share K33-related content on social media platforms.
