This Cookie Policy
explains how ("Company", "we", "us", and "our") uses cookies and similar
technologies to recognize you when you visit our websites at https://www.codingsecurely.com, ("Websites"). It explains what these technologies are and why we use them, as well as your
rights to control our use of them.
In some cases we may
use cookies to collect personal information, or that becomes personal information if we combine it with other information.
What are
cookies?
Cookies are small
data files that are placed on your computer or mobile device when you visit a website. Cookies are widely used by website owners in order to make their
websites work, or to work more efficiently, as well as to provide reporting information.
Cookies set by the
website owner (in this case, Coding Securely) are called "first party cookies". Cookies set by parties other than the website owner are called "third party
cookies". Third party cookies enable third party features or functionality to be provided on or through the website (e.g. like advertising, interactive
content and analytics). The parties that set these third party cookies can recognize your computer both when it visits the website in question and also
when it visits certain other websites.
Why do we use
cookies?
We use first and
third party cookies for several reasons. Some cookies are required for technical reasons in order for our Websites to operate, and we refer to these as
"essential" or "strictly necessary" cookies. Other cookies also enable us to track and target the interests of our users to enhance the experience on our
Online Properties. Third parties serve cookies through our Websites for advertising, analytics and other purposes. This is described in more detail
below.
The specific types of
first and third party cookies served through our Websites and the purposes they perform are described below (please note that the specific cookies served
may vary depending on the specific Online Properties you visit):
How can I control cookies?
You
have the right to decide whether to accept or reject cookies. You can exercise your cookie rights by setting your preferences in the Cookie Consent
Manager. The Cookie Consent Manager allows you to select which categories of cookies you accept or reject. Essential cookies cannot be rejected as they
are strictly necessary to provide you with services.
The
Cookie Consent Manager can be found in the notification banner and on our website. If you choose to reject cookies, you may still use our website though
your access to some functionality and areas of our website may be restricted. You may also set or amend your web browser controls to accept or refuse
cookies. As the means by which you can refuse cookies through your web browser controls vary from browser-to-browser, you should visit your browser's
help menu for more information.
The
specific types of first and third party cookies served through our Websites and the purposes they perform are described in the table below (please note

What about other
tracking technologies, like web beacons?
Cookies are not the
only way to recognize or track visitors to a
website. We may use other, similar technologies from time to time, like web beacons (sometimes called "tracking pixels" or "clear gifs"). These are tiny
graphics files that contain a unique identifier that enable us to recognize when someone has visited our Websites or opened an e-mail including them.
This allows us, for example, to monitor the traffic patterns of users from one page within a website to another, to deliver or
communicate with cookies, to understand whether you have come to the website from an online advertisement displayed on a third-party website, to improve
site performance, and to measure the success of e-mail marketing campaigns. In many instances, these technologies are reliant on cookies to function
properly, and so declining cookies will impair their functioning.
Do you use Flash cookies or Local Shared
Objects?
Websites may also use so-called "Flash Cookies" (also known as
Local Shared Objects or "LSOs") to, among other things, collect and store information about your use of our services, fraud prevention and for other site
operations.
If you do not want Flash Cookies stored on your computer, you
can adjust the settings of your Flash player to block Flash Cookies storage using the tools contained in the Website
Storage Settings Panel. You can also control Flash Cookies by going to
the Global
Storage Settings Panel and following the instructions
(which may include instructions that explain, for example, how to delete existing Flash Cookies (referred to "information" on the Macromedia site), how
to prevent Flash LSOs from being placed on your computer without your being asked, and (for Flash Player 8 and later) how to block Flash Cookies that are
not being delivered by the operator of the page you are on at the time).
Please
note that setting the Flash Player to restrict or limit acceptance of Flash Cookies may reduce or impede the functionality of some Flash applications,
including, potentially, Flash applications used in connection with our services or online content.
Do you serve
targeted advertising?
Third parties may serve cookies on your computer or mobile
device to serve advertising through our Websites. These companies may use information about your visits to this and other websites in order to provide
relevant advertisements about goods and services that you may be interested in. They may also employ technology that is used to measure the effectiveness
of advertisements. This can be accomplished by them using cookies or web beacons to collect information about your visits to this and other sites in
order to provide relevant advertisements about goods and services of potential interest to you. The information collected through this process does not
enable us or them to identify your name, contact details or other details that directly identify you unless you choose to provide these.
How often will you update this Cookie Policy?
We may
update this Cookie Policy from time to time in
order to reflect, for example, changes to the cookies we use or for other operational, legal or regulatory reasons. Please therefore re-visit this Cookie
Policy regularly to stay informed about our use of cookies and related technologies.
The date at the top of this Cookie Policy indicates when it was last
updated.
