What are cookies
Cookies are small files placed on your computer or device by a website or mobile application. A cookie may contain a unique ID assigned to your device, but does not contain personal information such as your name or email address.
Cookies help to recall your preferences from a previous visit when you return, to navigate from page to page, to play videos, to provide secure connections, and to analyze how a website is being used. Cookies allow the website or a third-party to recognize you and make your next visit easier and the website more useful to you.
You have the right to block and remove cookies but doing so may interfere with your browsing experience or mean that some features and services cannot be provided to you.
Different Types of Cookies
Cookies can be grouped into the following types:
Strictly Necessary Cookies

How we use cookies
When you use and access the Service, we and third-parties we have partnered with may place a number of cookie files on your device.
We use cookies to analyse the flow of information; customize the Service, content and advertising we offer; measure promotional effectiveness; and promote trust and safety. Some of our services can only be provided using cookies.
We use both first party cookies (our own cookies) and third party cookies, which are cookies provided by other people’s websites. For example, a third party content provider (such as Youtube or Vimeo) might provide a cookie when you access content hosted on their site (play a video). We do not have access to those third party cookies and their providers will have their own cookie and privacy policies, which we encourage you to read.
We use our own cookies for the following purposes:
- To remember your cookie consent on a particular device / browser
- To remember your preference on how we can use cookies
- To enable or disable features of the Service that your cookie consent allows or disallows
Third-party cookies
In addition to our own cookies, we also use third-party services that write cookies for the following purposes:
- To learn how the Service is being used we collect usage statistics via Google analytics.
- To play embedded video files from Youtube we use their Youtube player component, in the privacy-enhanced mode. This means that Youtube player minimizes cookie usage until you click the Play button.
- To play embedded video files from Vimeo we use their Vimeo player component, with "do not track" (dnt) parameter enabled. This will "block the player from tracking any session data, including all cookies and stats". The player still uses several cookies to function.
Google Analytics
Google Analytics is a popular cookie-based web analysis service provided by Google Inc, which we use to monitor how visitors use the Service, to compile usage reports and to help us improve the Service.
Please see Google’s privacy policy here for further information on the data Google collects and how it is processed.
If you prefer to not have data reported by Google Analytics, you can install the Google Analytics Opt-Out Browser Add-On, by following the instructions here.
You may also opt out of Google's use of tracking technologies by visiting the Google advertising opt-out page here.
You may also select "Minimal" option when you first use the Service and it queries your consent on using cookies; then the Service will not enable Google Analytics.
Youtube
Youtube is a popular video sharing service provided by Google Inc, which we use to play videos from our own or from our partner's Youtube account.
Please see Google’s privacy policy here for further information on the data Google collects and how it is processed.
If you prefer to not have cookies from Youtube, do not play the videos that we link from Youtube. We use Youtube's privacy-enabled URL, which means that Youtube will not write cookies until you press the play button.
You may also select "Minimal" option when you first use the Service and it queries your consent on using cookies; then the Service will not enable Youtube video player at all and you cannot play Youtube videos on the Service.
Vimeo
Vimeo is a popular video sharing service provided by IAC, which we use to play videos from our own or from our partner's Vimeo account.
Please see Vimeo’s privacy policy here for further information on the data Vimeo collects and how it is processed.
If you prefer to not have cookies from Vimeo, do not play the videos that we link from Vimeo. We use Vimeo's "do not track" parameter, which means that Vimeo will not write tracking cookies. Vimeo will still write functional cookies.
You may also select "Minimal" option when you first use the Service and it queries your consent on using cookies; then the Service will not enable Vimeo video player at all and you cannot play Vimeo videos on the Service.
