At Klein Group Ltd., we believe in being clear and open about how we collect and use data related to you. In the spirit of transparency, this policy provides detailed information about how and when we use cookies. This cookie policy applies to any Klein Group Ltd. product or service that links to this policy or incorporates it by reference.
Does Klein Group Ltd. use cookies?
Yes. As described in “How Does Our Technology Monitor Our Properties?” of our Privacy Policy, we use cookies and other technologies to ensure everyone who uses Klein Group Ltd. has the best possible experience. Cookies also help us keep your account safe. By continuing to visit or use our services, you are agreeing to the use of cookies and similar technologies for the purposes we describe in this policy.
What is a cookie?
A cookie is a small file placed onto your device that enables Klein Group Ltd. features and functionality. For example, cookies enable us to identify your device, secure your access to Klein Group Ltd. and our sites generally, and even help us know if someone attempts to access your account from a different device. Cookies also enable you to easily share content on Klein Group Ltd. and help us serve relevant ads to you.
When does Klein Group Ltd. place cookies?
We use cookies on our sites and mobile applications (Klein Group Ltd. properties). Any browser visiting these sites will receive cookies from us. We also place cookies in your browser when you visit non-Klein Group Ltd. sites that host our plugins or tags.
What types of cookies does Klein Group Ltd. use?
We use two types: persistent cookies and session cookies. A persistent cookie helps us recognize you as an existing user, so it’s easier to return to Klein Group Ltd. or interact with our services without signing in again. After you sign in, a persistent cookie stays in your browser and will be read by Klein Group Ltd. when you return to one of our sites or a partner site that uses our services (for example, our sharing or job application buttons). Session cookies only last for as long as the session (usually the current visit to a website or a browser session).
What are cookies used for?
Cookies can be used to recognize you when you visit Klein Group Ltd., remember your preferences, and give you a personalized experience that’s in line with your settings. Cookies also make your interactions with Klein Group Ltd. faster and more secure. Additionally, cookies allow us to bring you advertising both on and off Klein Group Ltd. properties, and bring customized experiences to you via personalization.
Categories of Use and Descriptions
Authentication
If you’re signed in to Klein Group Ltd., cookies help us show you the right information and personalize your experience.
Security
We use cookies to enable and support our security features, and to help us detect malicious activity and violations of our Terms of Service agreement.
Preferences, features and services
Cookies can tell us which language you prefer and what your communications preferences are. They can help you fill out forms on Klein Group Ltd. more easily. They also provide you with features, insights, and customized content in conjunction with our properties. You can learn more about customized experiences in our Privacy Policy.
Advertising
We may use cookies to show you relevant advertising both on and off Klein Group Ltd. properties. We may also use a cookie to learn whether someone who saw an ad later visited and took an action (e.g. downloaded a white paper or made a purchase) on the advertiser’s site. Similarly, our partners may use a cookie to determine whether we’ve shown an ad and how it performed, or provide us with information about how you interact with ads. We may also work with a partner to show you an ad on or off Klein Group Ltd. properties, such as after you’ve visited a partner’s site or application.
Performance, Analytics and Research
Cookies help us learn how well our properties perform in different locations. We also use cookies to understand, improve, and research products, features, and services, including when you access Klein Group Ltd. from other websites, applications, or devices such as your work computer or your mobile device.
What is Do Not Track (DNT)?
DNT is a concept that has been promoted by regulatory agencies such as the U.S. Federal Trade Commission (FTC), for the Internet industry to develop and implement a mechanism for allowing Internet users to control the tracking of their online activities across websites by using browser settings. The World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) has been working with industry groups, Internet browsers, technology companies, and regulators to develop a DNT technology standard. While some progress has been made, it has been slow. No standard has been adopted to this date. As such, Klein Group Ltd. does not generally respond to “do not track” signals.
How are cookies used for advertising purposes?
Cookies and other ad technology – such as “web beacons”, “tags and scripts”, and local storage objects (“LSOs”) such as HTML5 – help us serve relevant ads to you more effectively. They also help us provide aggregated auditing, research, and reporting for advertisers, understand and improve our service, and know when content has been shown to you. Note: Because your web browser may request advertisements and beacons directly from third party ad network servers, these networks can view, edit, or set third party cookies, just as if you had requested a web page from their site. Ads served by Klein Group Ltd. may also set third party cookies.
If you are logged in on a Klein Group Ltd. property that references this Cookie Policy or browsing a third party partner site of Klein Group Ltd. and one of our cookies on your device identifies you, your usage (such as your browsing behavior) and log data (such as your IP address), will be associated by us with your account as noted in “How Does Our Technology Monitor Our Properties?” of our Privacy Policy. We also use aggregate data from third parties and data from your profile and Klein Group Ltd. activity.
If you are a Klein Group Ltd. member but logged out of your account on a browser, Klein Group Ltd. may still continue to log your interaction with our services on that browser for up to 30 days in order to generate usage analytics for our services, which analytics we may share in aggregate form with our advertising customers.
Unless you clear these cookies from your browser, we may use this information to conduct activities such as:
For further information regarding our use of cookies and similar technologies for advertising purposes, and the controls available to Members and Visitors, please refer to our Privacy Policy.
What third-party cookies does Klein Group Ltd. use?
Our List of Third-Party Vendors in our Privacy Policy lists some of the third party cookies on our properties. Please note that the names of cookies, pixels and other technologies may change over time. Please also note that companies and other organizations that sponsor pages and advertising on Klein Group Ltd. properties may use cookies, pixels or other technologies on their properties to learn about your interest in them.
Controlling cookies
Most browsers allow you to control cookies through their settings preferences. However, if you limit the ability of websites to set cookies, you may worsen your overall user experience, since it will no longer be personalized to you. It may also stop you from saving customized settings like login information.
What to do if you don’t want cookies to be set or want them to be removed?
You can opt-out of our advertising cookies in your account settings. If you do not want to receive cookies, you can also change your browser settings on your computer or other device you’re using to access our services. If you use Klein Group Ltd. properties without changing your browser settings, we’ll assume that you’re happy to receive all cookies on the Klein Group Ltd. properties. Most browsers also provide functionality that lets you review and erase cookies, including Klein Group Ltd. cookies. Please note that Klein Group Ltd. properties may not work properly without cookies.
