Websites maintained by gogetfix use several different cookies. This Cookies Policy explains the following:
- What are cookies?
- Cookies we use and why we use them
- E.U. users’ right to refuse cookies
WHAT ARE COOKIES?
They are small files stored on your device when you visit a website. Any information retrieved by these is sent back to the website the next time you visit again or to another site that recognizes it. This allows a website to identify your device, enhancing your browsing experience. You can dig further to read more about how they function.
( at:www.allaboutcookies.org and www.youronlinechoices.eu. )
Cookies serve various purposes, like helping you move smoothly between pages, remembering your preferences, and enhancing your overall browsing experience.
WHY WE USE THEM
These are often broken down by who places them on your computer or device.
- First-party are placed by the website you’re visiting. Any cookies that we (GoGetFix) store on your device from our website are first-party cookies.
- These are third-party cookies, put by a third party and not the owner of the website.
We use only first-party on our website.
We also categorize our them based on why they are being used. On our website, we have four different types of functional cookies.
- Essential Cookies
These strictly necessary for the proper operation of the website or service, or to deliver a service you have requested, will be used. For example, we have a cookie that remembers whether you are logged into the site or not until you explicitly log out.
If you opt-in to our text messaging program, we will also use them to make your experience as personalized as possible, for example, sending you targeted text messages.
- Analytical Cookies
They gather information about how visitors use a website, such as which pages are most visited and if there are any error messages. Analytical they don’t collect personal details that can identify you. All the data they collect is grouped and anonymous. These cookies are only used to help improve how the website works.
We use them from third-party providers like Google Analytics, Optimizely, and New Relic to analyze how users interact with our site.
Google Analytics cookies track data based on your IP address, like how long you stay on a page, which pages you visit, and the websites you browse before and after ours. If you don’t want Google Analytics to track your information, you can opt-out by clicking here. (Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on )
Optimizely they help us to test if changes to our website are working as expected.
Similarly, New Relic cookies track things like delays or issues with the website’s features. New Relic assigns a “session ID” to your visit, which collects information and sends it to New Relic, but this ID is not connected to you personally. Every visit gets a new session ID, and these IDs are not linked between visits. New Relic deletes the session ID once your visit ends.
Cookies provided by a third-party service provider transmit the information that is collected to that provider. For example, Google Analytics cookies will transmit to Google Analytics the information about how you interact with our site, such as which pages you visit. The providers then assemble the collected information into reports that are shared with us. Because the reports are aggregated, they do not contain any personally identifiable information. Moreover, the reports are shared only with our organization. We utilize these reports to improve your experience at our site.
Where the design does call for third-party providers, however, those cookies are technically classified as first-party because, after all, we establish them on our website.
- Functional Cookies
These help to remember your preferences on that website and hence may be able to offer personalized features. For instance, you may use them to ensure you can continue your conversation with customer care even when you navigate through a couple of pages at Olark.com.
- Targeting/Advertising Cookies
Targeting or advertising are used to show ads that are relevant to you. They know which websites you have visited, so they can be shared with other organizations that we might work with.
This includes remarketing them, which track every time you visit our website and what pages you have consulted. Then, it shares this information with third-party vendors, such as AppNexus, Google, Nanigans, Facebook, and Twitter. Using this information, third-party vendors will display Handy products-based advertisements on other sites based on your activities on our site.
You can opt out of Google’s use of them by visiting Google’s Ads Settings here. To opt out of cookie-based ads from other advertisers or third-party providers like AppNexus, visit the Network Advertising Initiative (NAI) opt-out page. However, not all of our third-party vendors participate in the NAI opt-out page. Some vendors may also be part of the Digital Advertising Alliance’s (DAA) Self-Regulatory Program for Online Behavioral Advertising. To learn more about how to manage interest-based advertising, including ads based on cross-device data, visit ( http://www.aboutads.info/choices/. )You can also learn about the DAA’s opt-out program for mobile apps, including those using location data, by visiting ( http://www.aboutads.info/appchoices. )
Please note that even if you opt out of certain interest-based ads, you may still see other types of ads. Opting out means those selected companies will no longer show you certain targeted ads, but it doesn’t stop all targeted ads from other ad networks. If your browser is set to block cookies, or clear , use a different device or browser, or access via a non-browser method (like a mobile app), your NAI/DAA opt-out may not work.
Cookies can also be categorized by how long they remain on your device. There are two broad categories of duration:
