GIBBSCAM and its affiliates use tracking technologies such as cookies (collectively “cookies”) to gather personal information about how you use our websites and mobile apps that connect to this Privacy Policy. We do this to help improve our websites, mobile apps, and other online services in order to give you a more personalized and relevant online experience. Our vendors may also use cookies for their own purposes as described below under Advertisement and ad measurement. You can decide at managing cookies which vendors may receive the personal data gathered from our cookies.
In this Privacy Policy, we explain what types of personal data we collect, why, on what legal basis, and where it is transferred. We also explain your rights regarding the personal data collected and where you can ask questions.
If you’d like information about how we process your personal data outside of those gathered from cookies, such as when you fill out forms or respond to surveys, please see the GIBBSCAM Privacy Statement.
We may update this privacy notice with new information. Minor updates will be evidenced by a new effective date. For any significant changes, we will ask for your consent again, which will include the link to the new Privacy Policy.
When we mention “GIBBSCAM,” “we,” “us” or “our” in this Privacy Policy, we mean GIBBSCAM or the relevant GIBBSCAM company responsible for the website, including the cookies placed on the website.
A cookie is a file containing an identifier (a string of letters and numbers) that is sent by a web server to a web browser and is stored by the browser on your device. The identifier is then sent back to the server each time your browser requests a page from the server.
Cookies may be either "persistent" cookies or "session" cookies: a persistent cookie will be stored by a web browser and will remain valid until its set expiry date, unless deleted by the user before the expiry date. A session cookie, on the other hand, will expire at the end of the user session, when your web browser is closed.
We use cookies for the purposes described below.
The necessary cookies consist of two types which cannot be deactivated: “network communication” and “functional” cookies. The network communication cookies are needed for the website or application to function, such as session cookies which keep track of the same user during the visit, so that users may navigate back and forth between pages without losing their previous actions from the same session. They also give you the best browsing performance by serving data from a location as close to you as possible. The functional cookies are necessary to save your preferences and settings such as keeping track of your privacy choices and remembering where you paused a video, and helping you do things like initiate a chat with us, and remembering if you visited the website before so that messages for new visitors are not displayed to you.
For these cookies, we rely on our legitimate interests to operate secure and functional websites, communicate to the public and offer online services.
The personal data processed for this purpose: Device attributes such as browser type, mobile device ID, time zone setting, operating system, and platform. We associate information that indirectly identifies you with your account (if you have one) and other information we have collected about you. We use your IP address to infer your approximate location.
