What are Cookies & Other Technologies?
- Cookies. A "cookie" is a tiny file that's stored on your computer. It contains a unique identifier, as well as the address and other information about the website you are visiting. Cookies help us know whether you are a returning visitor to our Services. For example, although you may not log-in when you visit our Services, we can use cookies to recognize that you have visited the Services in the past. By using cookies, we are able to understand what is of interest to our customers and ensure the content and services we offer are relevant and compelling when you visit our Services. In some cases, we may use the personal information we collect from cookies to deliver relevant and compelling content to you when you visit the Services.
- Web Beacons, Pixel Tags, and Other Tracking Technologies. Web beacons, pixel tags and other tracking technologies are small strings of code placed on a web page or in an e-mail or advertisement. These technologies allow your browser to recognize and store certain types of information such as cookies previously set, the time and date that you viewed the page with the beacon, and a description of that page.
- Device Fingerprinting. Device fingerprinting is the process of analyzing and combining sets of information elements from your device's browser, such as JavaScript objects and installed fonts, in order to create a "fingerprint" of your device and uniquely identify your device and apps.
- App Technologies. There are a variety of tracking technologies that may be included in our apps, and these are not browser-based like cookies and cannot be controlled by browser settings. For example, our apps may include third-party SDKs, which are codes that send information about your use to a server, and are in effect the app version of a pixel. These SDKs allow us to track our conversions, bring you advertising both on and off the Service, and provide you with additional functionality.
- Location-Identifying Technologies. We use your IP address to determine general information about your location, such as the geographic region or country in which you are located, in order to provide the appropriate service.
Some personal information about your use of the Service and third-party services may be collected using tracking technologies across time and services. Cozi and third parties may use this information for purposes such as to distinguish between the different devices that you use, and deliver relevant ads and content to you on the Service and third-party services.
Can You Opt Out?
In most cases, yes! There are some cookies that we need in order to operate the Services. If you deleted those cookies, the Services would no longer function (as an example, if we can't remember what account you belong to, we cannot show you your information on the Services). You can always decide to opt-out of or delete the third party cookies (cookies set by advertisers and data partners) on our Services. Keep in mind, if you block cookies, you may not be able to view or access some of the features of our Services. Visit our section on your privacy choices for more information on how to opt-out.
