This HYLA®
Mobile Analytics Portal Cookie Policy forms part of the HYLA®

1.
What is a cookie?
A cookie is small file that a website can send to your browser,
which may then store it on your system or your mobile device. 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, Hyla) 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. website analytics services). The
parties that set these third party cookies can recognize your computer both
when it visits the website in question and also when it visits certain other
websites.
2.
How long do cookies last?
Cookies can remain on your computer or mobile device for
different periods of time. Some cookies are ‘session cookies,’ meaning that
they exist only while your website browser is open and are deleted
automatically once you close your browser. Other cookies are ‘permanent
cookies,’ meaning that they survive after your browser is closed and can be
used by websites to recognize your computer when you later re-open your browser
and browse the internet again. The duration of the cookies used on the HYLA
Portal is explained in more detail in the table below.
3.
How do we use cookies?
We use first party cookies to allow us to understand what areas
of HYLA Portal are of interest to you so we can better serve and provide you with
tailored information from HYLA Portal. We use first party cookies to collect
data such as information about your web browser and operating system, the
frequency of your visits, what you do on the HYLA Portal. We may allow our
third party web analytics provider =to collect and analyze the data we obtain
from our cookies to tell us how you use the HYLA Portal.

Other technologies we may use
The HYLA Portal may also use “Web beacon” technologies. When you
access pages with a Web beacon, an anonymous notice of that visit is generated
which may be processed by us or by our analytics vendors. If used, Web beacons
work in conjunction with cookies to let us know what portions of the HYLA
Portal are of interest to our users and to help us provide you with tailored
information from the HYL Portal. If you choose not to accept cookies, Web
beacon technologies will still detect anonymous visits, but the notices they
generate cannot be associated with other information and are disregarded. From this we may be able to identify the
approximate geographic location of the computer from which you are visiting the
HYLA Portal and the domain that it is using to access the Internet.
5.
Your rights to control cookies
You have the right to choose whether or not to accept cookies! You
can block cookies by changing your browser settings so that cookies from this
website cannot be placed on your computer or mobile device. The “help” portion
of the toolbar on most Internet browsers will tell you how to change your
browser cookie settings, including how to have the browser notify you when you
receive a new cookie, and how to disable cookies altogether. Please note that
if you choose not to accept cookies you may not have access to certain features
that make your experience of Hyla Portal more efficient and some of the features
on Hyla Portal may not function properly.
