91��������

This Cookie Policy is intended to supplement the 91�������� Privacy Policy and other applicable privacy notices and provides additional information about 91��������’s use of cookies on our websites, mobile applications and digital services (collectively “websites”).

WHAT ARE COOKIES AND WHY ARE THEY USED?

A “cookie” is a file that our webserver may send to your computer when you access an 91�������� website. This file is then stored on your computer. For example, after you have entered personal information into a form or data field on an 91�������� website, 91�������� may use cookies and other similar technologies to allow that website to "remember" your personal preferences, such as sections of that website that you visit frequently and, if you choose, your user ID.

Cookies and similar technologies can make your use of 91�������� websites easier by allowing 91�������� to provide better service, customize sites based on consumer preferences, compile statistics, analyze trends, and otherwise administer and improve 91�������� websites. Certain features of 91�������� websites may not work without use of required cookies or similar technologies.

91�������� websites may use similar technologies such as “web beacons” (also known as internet tags, single-pixel GIFs, clear GIFs, and invisible GIFs). A web beacon is a tiny graphic on a web page or in an e-mail message that is used to track pages viewed or messages opened. Web beacons tell the website server information such as the IP address and browser type related to the visitor's computer. Web beacons may be placed on online advertisements that bring people to our site and on different pages of our site. Web beacons provide us with information on how many times a page is opened, and which information is consulted.

WHAT TYPES OF COOKIES AND OTHER TRACKING TECHNOLOGIES ARE USED?

Session or Persistent Cookies

91�������� websites use “session” cookies. These are temporary bits of information that are erased once you exit your web browser window or turn your computer off. Session cookies are used, for example, to improve navigation on our websites, block visitors from providing information where inappropriate (the site "remembers" previous entries of age or country of origin that were outside the specified parameters and blocks subsequent changes) and to collect aggregated statistical information. The list of cookies that are used on our website is below.

91�������� websites may use “persistent” cookies that are more permanent bits of information placed on the hard drive of your computer until you delete the cookie. Persistent cookies store information on your computer for a number of purposes, such as retrieving certain information you have previously provided (e.g., passwords), helping to determine what areas of the website visitors find most valuable, and customizing the website based on your preferences.�� Persistent cookies placed by an 91�������� website on your computer may hold personal information you have provided, but only if you have registered or have consented to it. Otherwise, our webserver only knows that an unidentified visitor with your cookies has returned to the website.

First or Third-Party Cookies

91�������� websites may use “First-Party” or “Third-Party” cookies. “First-Party” cookies are sent to the user's device from a domain managed by 91�������� as the owner of the website, while “Third-party” cookies are sent to the user's device from a domain that is not managed by 91�������� but by a third-party.�� We recommend that you check the relevant third-party's privacy policies for information about any cookies which may be used.

Cookie Categories

91�������� websites may use cookies for different purposes, such as technical, functional or advertising purposes. 91�������� is in the process of updating the cookie preference center. Depending on the 91�������� website you visit, the cookie categories and descriptions in the cookie preference center may be different. Applicable cookie categories and descriptions on our websites are set forth below:
