Cookie Policy
What is a cookie?
A cookie is a small piece of data that a website asks your browser to store on your computer or mobile device. The cookie allows the website to “remember” your actions or preferences over time. On future visits, this data is then returned to that website to help identify you and your site preferences. Our websites and mobile sites use cookies to give you the best online experience.
Most Internet browsers support cookies; however, users can set their browsers to decline certain types of cookies or specific cookies. Further, users can delete cookies at any time.
Why do we use cookies?
We use cookies to learn how you interact with our content and to improve your experience when visiting our website(s). For example, some cookies remember your language or preferences so that you do not have to repeatedly make these choices when you visit one of our websites.
What kind of cookies do we use?
We use the following categories of cookie:
Category 1: Strictly Necessary Cookies
Strictly necessary cookies are those that are essential for our sites to work in the way you have requested. Although many of our sites are open, that is, they do not require registration; we may use strictly necessary cookies to control access to some of our community sites, whitepapers or online events such as webinars; as well as to maintain your session during a single visit. These cookies will need to reset on your browser each time you register or log in to a gated area. If you block these cookies entirely, you may not be able to access gated areas. We may also offer you the choice of a persistent cookie to recognize you as you return to one of our gated sites. If you choose not to use this “remember me” function, you will simply need to log in each time you return.

You may refuse the use of cookies by selecting the appropriate settings on your browser.

Please read through each social media organization’s privacy and data protection policy to understand its use of its cookies and the tracking from our sites, and also how to control such cookies and buttons.
Category 5: Targeting/Advertising Cookies
We use tracking and targeting cookies, or ask other companies to do so on our behalf, to send you emails and show you online advertising, which meet your business and professional interests. If you have registered on our websites, we may send you emails, tailored to reflect the interests you have shown during your visits.
We ask third-party advertising platforms and technology companies to show you our ads after you leave our sites (retargeting technology). This technology allows us to make our website services more interesting for you. Retargeting cookies are used to record anonymized movement patterns on a website. These patterns are used to tailor banner advertisements to your interests. The data used for retargeting is completely anonymous, and is only used for statistical analysis. No personal data is stored, and the use of the retargeting technology is subject to the applicable statutory data protection regulations.
We also work with companies to reach people who have not visited our sites. These companies do not identify you as an individual, instead rely on a variety of other data to show you advertisements, for example, behavior across websites, information about individual devices, and, in some cases, IP addresses.
Please refer below table to understand how these third-party websites collect and use information on our behalf and read more about their opt out options.
