What types of cookies do we employ?
- Required or strictly necessary cookies. These cookies are essential for our websites to operate correctly and to provide you with requested services. For example, we use cookies to authenticate you, so when you log on to Organization websites, we know who you are.
- Functionality cookies. We use functionality cookies to enhance website features, such as videos and live chat, and for personalization, such as storing your preferences (e.g. username and language selection). Functionality cookies may be set by Organization or by third parties whose services we have added to our websites. If you do not allow these cookies, you may not be able to use some portions of our websites or technology network, and some website may not work properly.
- Social media cookies. Social media cookies may be set by third parties to collect information about your social media usage.
- Analytics cookies. Analytics cookies collect information about your use of our websites and technology network, and help us improve the way it works. For example, analytics cookies identify the most frequently visited pages, record any difficulties you have, and show whether our advertising is effective. This allows us to see the overall patterns of usage, rather than the usage of a single person. We use the information to analyze the websites' traffic.
- Targeting/advertising cookies. We use targeting/advertising cookies to create profiles and personalize content. We may use third party products, such as Analytics, to market Organization’s services to you on third party websites. For example, if you visit Organization websites, you may then see advertisements for Organization on other websites.

Third-Party Advertisements and Cookie Tracking: The advertisements you see on our website may be served by third parties who use their own cookies to monitor how many times you have
seen an advertisement and to track your visits across different sites where their ads appear. This tracking, which is anonymous, aims to provide ads that are more relevant to your
interests and to limit the frequency of the same ad. For instance, if you have recently searched for cars, you might see advertisements for car services on our site. We do not control
these third-party cookies and cannot access the data they collect, but you can opt out of this type of tracking through online advertiser settings.
