This Cookie Notice explains how The Act 1 Group, Inc. and its affiliates, click here, (collectively, "ActOne Group", "we" "us", or "ours") use cookies and other tracking technologies to recognize you when you visit our websites ("Websites"). It explains what these cookies and technologies are and why we use them, and your rights to control our use of them.
What are Cookies?
Cookies are small pieces of data (text files) that a website – when visited by a user – asks your browser to store on your device in order to remember information about you, such as your login information. Those cookies that are set by us are called first party cookies. We also use third party cookies – which are from a domain different from the domain of the website you are visiting – for our advertising, analytical and marketing efforts. Third party cookies also enable third party features or functionality to be provided on or through the website.
Why do we use Cookies?
We use cookies and other tracking technologies:
- To provide you with services available through our Websites;
- To market our services to you through certain third-party websites;
- To assist you in navigation;
- To assist you in login and your ability to provide feedback;
- To enhance the performance and functionality of our Websites; and
- To collect statistical information in aggregate form regarding the utilization of our Websites.
How do we categorize Cookies?
Our Websites are scanned with a cookie scanning tool regularly to maintain a list as accurate as possible. We classify cookies in the following categories:
Strictly Necessary Cookies: These cookies are necessary for the Websites to function and cannot be switched off in our systems. They are usually only set in response to actions made by you which amount to a request for services, such as setting your privacy preferences, logging in, or filling in forms. You can set your browser to block or alert you about these cookies, however, this may partially affect the functionality of the Website. These cookies do not store any personally identifiable information.
Performance or Analytics Cookies: Our Websites use third party cookies, such as Google Analytics cookies, to (i) record the time of your first visit to our Website(s), the time of your most recent visit to the Website(s) and the time of your current visit; (ii) record which page(s) you visit on the Website(s); (iii) record how long you stayed on the website; and (iv) record how you located our website (i.e. Google search, keyword, link from other page, etc.). We only share the information obtained through the use of Google Analytics with Google. For more information on Google’s use of your information, please see https://policies.google.com/technologies/cookies#types-of-cookies. These cookies allow us to count visits and traffic sources, so we can measure and improve the performance of our site. They help us know which pages are the most and least popular and see how visitors move around the site. The cookies we use for these purposes do not track your internet usage after leaving our website and do not store your personal information. They will not be used in connection with any other information to identify you in any way. All information these cookies collect is aggregated and therefore anonymous. If you do not allow these cookies, we will not know when you have visited our site.
Functionality Cookies: These cookies enable the website to provide enhanced functionality and personalization, such as when you move between pages on our site. They may be set by us or by third party providers whose services we have added to our pages. If you do not allow these cookies then some or all of these services may not function properly.
Targeting or Advertising Cookies: These cookies may be set through our site by third party partners. They may be used by those companies to build a profile of your interests and show you relevant ads on other sites. They do not store directly personal information but are based on uniquely identifying your browser and internet device. If you do not allow these cookies, you will experience less targeted advertising.
Most advertising networks offer you a way to opt out of targeted advertising. If you would like to find out more information, please visit http://www.aboutads.info/choices/ or http://www.youronlinechoices.com.
Third Party Website Cookies: When using our Website(s), you may be directed to other websites. These websites may use their own cookies. We do not have control over the placement of cookies by other websites you visit, even if you are directed to them from our website.
Cookies in use
Each Website has a “Cookie List” link in the footer for you to see which cookies are set by that site. If a discrepancy is found, please contact us.
How can I control Cookies?
You can opt out of Google Analytics by visiting https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout. You can opt-out of other cookie categories (except strictly necessary cookies) or elect to be notified of the presence of cookies by clicking on the “cookie settings” button below, and by submitting an opt-out request via the Contact Us section of our Privacy Policy.
Customize Settings
You can also set or amend your web browser controls to accept or refuse cookies. If you choose to reject cookies, you may still use our Website(s), though, your access to some functionality and areas of our Website(s) may be restricted. How you adjust your browser to stop accepting cookies will depend on the type of internet browser program your computer uses. Because web browsers vary, you should visit your browser's help menu for more information or may review instructions here (Please note that this link will open a new window and will lead to an external website - we are not responsible for the content of external websites).
Collection of your data from our analytics cookies can be deleted. If cookies are deleted, the information collected prior to the preference change may still be used. However, we will stop using the disabled cookie to collect any further information from your user experience. For Tracking or Advertising Cookies, when a user opts out of tracking, a new cookie is placed to prevent users from being tracked.
We honor “Do Not Track” browser settings, meaning we will not track your browser for marketing purposes while you have “Do Not Track” turned on in your browser settings.
What about other tracking technologies?
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. This allows us to monitor the traffic patterns of users from one page within our Websites to another, to deliver or communicate with cookies, to understand whether you have come to our Websites 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.
How often will you update this Cookie Notice?
We may update this Cookie Notice 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 re-visit this Cookie Notice regularly to stay informed about our use of cookies and related technologies. The date at the top of this Cookie Notice indicates when it was last updated.
