Introduction

This Cookie Policy explains how Clearfin Group Ltd ("Company", "we", "us" and "our") uses cookies and similar technologies to recognise you when you visit our website at https://clearfinsecurity.com ("Website"). 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, Clearfin Group Ltd) 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 recognise your computer both when it visits the website in question and 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 Website 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 Website for advertising, analytics and other purposes.

How can I control cookies?

You have the right to decide whether to accept or reject cookies. By using our website, you are agreeing to let us use the cookies outlined in the next section. You can choose to block third party cookies by using a browser plugin, but essential cookies cannot be rejected as they are strictly necessary to provide you with the service.

Please note that depending on which cookies you choose to block, some functionality may be unavailable and areas of the site may not function as intended.

In addition, most advertising networks offer you a way to opt out of targeted advertising. If you would like to find out more information, please visit aboutads.info/choices or youronlinechoices.com
