How Xrillion uses cookies and similar technologies.
This Cookie Notice explains what cookies and similar technologies are, how Xrillion uses them on its websites, and the choices you have in managing your preferences.
This Cookie Notice should be read together with the Xrillion Privacy Notice, which explains how we handle personal data more broadly.
1. What are cookies?
Cookies are small text files that a website stores on your device (such as your computer, tablet or phone) when you visit it. They are widely used to make websites work, or work more efficiently, as well as to provide information to website owners.
In addition to cookies, we may use similar technologies such as pixels, tags, local storage or scripts (collectively referred to as “cookies” in this document for simplicity).
2. How and why Xrillion uses cookies
Xrillion uses cookies to understand how visitors use our sites, improve performance and provide a more relevant experience. Examples include:
- Remembering basic settings or preferences, where applicable
- Understanding which pages and content are most useful to visitors
- Improving page load times and overall performance
- Helping us measure the effectiveness of our content and campaigns
We do not use cookies to secretly monitor individuals, read personal documents or access information stored on your device outside what is needed for the cookie’s purpose.
3. Types of cookies we may use
The cookies on Xrillion’s sites generally fall into these categories:
a) Strictly necessary cookies
These cookies are essential for the Site to function properly. They are usually set in response to actions you take, such as navigating between pages or using basic forms. Without them, some parts of the Site may not work correctly.
b) Performance and analytics cookies
These cookies help us understand how visitors interact with the Site — for example, which pages are visited most often, or if users experience errors. We use this information in aggregate to improve our content, navigation and overall experience.
c) Functionality cookies
These cookies allow the Site to remember certain choices you make (such as your language preferences or previously visited sections) and provide more tailored features, where applicable.
d) Targeting or advertising cookies
From time to time, we may work with partners who set cookies that help measure the effectiveness of campaigns or provide more relevant content on other sites. These cookies do not give us direct access to your browsing on third-party sites but allow us to understand, in aggregate, how our digital presence performs.
4. First-party and third-party cookies
Some cookies are set directly by Xrillion (“first-party cookies”). Others may be set by third-party service providers we use for analytics, performance, security, video hosting or other features (“third-party cookies”).
Third parties may collect information about your online activities over time and across different websites, subject to their own privacy and cookie notices. We encourage you to review their policies separately.
5. Examples of tools and services that may place cookies
Depending on the specific Xrillion site or campaign, we may use tools such as (illustrative list only):
- Web analytics platforms to understand aggregated visitor behaviour
- Marketing or campaign measurement tools
- Embedded content providers (for example, video or form providers)
The exact tools used may change over time as we adjust our technology stack. Our use of such tools is intended to improve the relevance, security and performance of Xrillion’s digital presence.
6. How long cookies stay on your device
The duration for which a cookie remains on your device depends on whether it is a “session” cookie or a “persistent” cookie:
- Session cookies are temporary and typically deleted when you close your browser.
- Persistent cookies remain on your device for a specified period or until you delete them.
You can usually see and manage cookies through your browser settings, including deleting existing cookies at any time.
7. How to manage or disable cookies
Most web browsers allow you to control cookies through their settings. Depending on your browser, you may be able to:
- View the cookies currently stored on your device
- Delete some or all cookies
- Block cookies from specific sites
- Block all cookies, or specific types of cookies
- Receive alerts before a cookie is stored on your device
The way to do this varies from browser to browser. You can usually find instructions in the “Help” or “Settings” section of your browser.
Please note that blocking or deleting certain cookies may impact your experience on the Site and some features may not work as intended.
8. Cookie consent and local requirements
In some jurisdictions, certain cookies (especially non-essential cookies such as analytics or advertising cookies) may require your consent before they are placed on your device. Where required, we will implement appropriate consent mechanisms or banners to capture and respect your choices.
Your cookie choices may be stored in a cookie itself, so if you clear your cookies entirely, you may need to reconfigure your preferences the next time you visit.
9. “Do Not Track” and similar signals
Some browsers offer a “Do Not Track” (DNT) signal or similar mechanisms to indicate that you prefer not to be tracked across websites. There is currently no uniform standard for how websites should respond to these signals.
At this time, Xrillion does not guarantee a specific response to DNT signals. We will continue to monitor developments and update our practices where appropriate.
10. Changes to this Cookie Notice
We may update this Cookie Notice from time to time to reflect changes in technology, law, our practices or other reasons. When we make material changes, we will update the “Last updated” date below and may provide additional notice where appropriate.
Last updated: [Update this date when you publish]
