We use cookies or similar tools on our site to improve its performance and your experience. This policy explains how we do that.

What are cookies?

Cookies are small text files the website can save on your computer or mobile device when you visit a page or a site. The cookie will help the site or other sites recognize your device the next time you visit it. Web beacons or other similar files can do the same. We use the term cookies in this policy to name all the files that collect information in this way.

Cookies perform multiple different functions. For example, they help us remember your username or preferences, analyze how well our site performs, or even allow us to recommend content that we think will be of interest to you.

Some cookies contain personal information - for example, if you clicked "Remember me" when you logged into your account, the cookie will remember your username. Most cookies do not collect information that can identify you but rather generates general information about how users access our site and how they use it or what their location is.

What types of cookies does the Banner Monitoring site use?

Basically, cookies perform 4 different functions:

1. Important cookies

3. Functional cookies

Functional cookies allow us to remember your preferences, such as font size and other your personal settings. For example, cookies save you time and effort to enter a username every time you visit our site.

4. Behaviorally Targeted Advertising Cookies

Banner Monitoring and our advertisers use cookies to show you ads that we believe are relevant to your interests. For example, if you've been reviewing several chocolate recipes on our site or on other sites, a chocolate maker may suggest that you have an interest in chocolate and show you ads on your products. You can see these ads on the Banner Monitoring site on other sites you visit. But we do not disclose your identity to our advertisers.

Does anyone else use cookies on the Banner Monitoring site?

Advertisers sometimes use their browsers to show you targeted ads. For example, advertisers can use a profile based on the sites you previously visited to show you more relevant ads when you visit the Banner Monitoring site. We believe it's helpful for our users to see ads that are targeted to their interests.

We use or permit third parties to use cookies on our site that fall into the four categories mentioned above. For example, like many companies, we use Google Analytics to monitor the traffic on our site. Also, when you share a recipe using the buttons to social networks (such as Facebook) on the Banner Monitoring site, the social network that created this button will save this action.

We may use third-party cookies to help us market research, track revenue, improve functionality, and monitor compliance with our terms and conditions and copyright policy.
