These session cookies will be deleted automatically when you close your website browsing session. The information collected via session cookies is collected on an aggregate basis. None of this information is associated with you as an individual.

Other third-party services may also combine the personal information you provide us (such as your email address) with cookies or other website tracking mechanisms. These services may be used to gather information, allowing us to provide you with more information about products or services in which you might be interested. When you submit personal information (such as your name or email address) on the site, we will ask for your consent to use it for marketing and advertising our products and services.

We may use services hosted by third parties to collect information about how users use our site, allowing us to compile reports and improve its functionality. Some third-party services collect aggregated non-personal information, such as the information sent by a browser as part of a webpage request, IP addresses, time and duration of website visits, and/or how you found our website, such as via a search engine or social media.

We use Google Analytics, LinkedIn, and Adroll to provide ad and analytics services on our website. For more information about Google’s privacy practices, please see here, and to opt out of Google Analytics, visit here. For more information about Adroll’s privacy practices, see here.

On your first visit to the website, a window will appear to enable you to manage your cookies. You will then be able to indicate your preferences and choose whether to give your consent for cookies requiring it. No cookies requiring prior consent will be deposited without your consent or without a clear positive act on your part. 

As many websites rely on cookies and/or other tracking tools to help tailor a user’s experience, most Internet browsers are initially set up to accept them. You can disable cookies or other types of tracking tools through your computer or device’s Internet browser settings. However, some parts of this website may not operate correctly if you disable cookies. You should check with your Internet browser provider if you have any questions regarding disabling cookies.

“Do Not Track”: Some newer Internet browsers have incorporated Do Not Track features, and when turned on, they tell the website you are visiting that you do not want to be tracked while browsing. Websites differ in how they respond to these Do Not Track signals, as there is not yet a common understanding of how to interpret the Do Not Track signal. Because of this lack of clarity, our website does not respond to the browser Do Not Track signal. Thus, most cookies will continue to be stored until you choose to delete them.

The content of this Cookies Policy is for your general information and use only. These cookies are subject to change without notice. Questel reserves the right to update its Cookies Policy to reflect changes to our websites, changes in laws or regulations, or for other reasons. You can find the latest version on this webpage. Any changes will be effective when we post the revised Cookie Policy on the website. This Policy was last updated as of the date listed above (“updated date”). We encourage you to review this page regularly for the latest information on our cookie management practices.
