Cookies Policy

 

Thanks for visiting Sceptre Security. Please take a moment to read our cookies Policy before continue using our website.

 

This policy helps to explain the occasions when and why cookies may be sent to visitors to the website (referred to in this policy as “we”, “us” or “our” or “Company”).

 

“Cookies” are text-only pieces of information that a website transfers to an individual’s hard drive or other website-browsing equipment for record-keeping purposes. Cookies allow the website to remember important information that will make your use of the site more convenient.

 

SECTION 1- WHAT ARE COOKIES

Cookies are small pieces of data, stored in text files, that are stored on your computer or other device when websites are loaded in a browser. They are widely used to “remember” you and your preferences, either for a single visit (through a “session cookie”) or for multiple repeat visits (using a “persistent cookie”). They ensure a consistent and efficient experience for visitors, and perform essential functions such as allowing users to register and remain logged in. Cookies may be set by the site that you are visiting (known as “first party cookies”), or by third parties, such as those who serve content or provide advertising or analytics services on the website (“third party cookies”).

Both websites and HTML emails may also contain other tracking technologies such as “web beacons” or “pixels.” These are typically small transparent images that provide us with statistics, for similar purposes as cookies. They are often used in conjunction with cookies, though they are not stored on your computer in the same way. As a result, if you disable cookies, web beacons may still load, but their functionality will be restricted.

Cookies allow Sceptre Security to serve you better and more efficiently, and to personalize your experience on our Site. Web beacons, tags and scripts may be used in the website or in emails to help us to deliver cookies, count visits, understand usage and campaign effectiveness and determine whether an email has been opened and acted upon. We may analyse or perform analysis based on the use of these technologies and generate reports on an individual and aggregated basis.

Cookies can be “persistent” or “session” cookies. A persistent cookie helps us recognize you as an existing user, so it’s easier to return to Sceptre Security or interact with our services without signing in again. After your visit, a persistent cookie stays in your browser and will be read by Sceptre Security when you return to one of our sites. Session cookies only last for as long as the session (usually the current visit to a website or a browser session).

 

SECTION 2- WHY WE USE COOKIES

A cookie will typically contain the name of the domain from which the cookie has come, the “lifetime” of the cookie, and a randomly generated unique number or other value. Most websites, we use cookies for a variety of purposes in order to improve your online experience, for analytics and for marketing, but specifically we use cookies on the website for the following purposes:

 

  • Analytical Purposes: Sceptre Security may use cookies to analyse user activity in order to improve the website. For example, using cookies we can look at aggregate patterns like the average number of searches that users perform. We can use such analysis to gain insights about how to improve the functionality and user experience of the website.

 

  • Your Preferences: Sceptre Security uses cookies to store certain user preferences on our website. For example, we may store the recent searches you have performed in a Cookie so that we can allow you to easily repeat those searches when you return to our website.

 

  • Marketing: We may use cookies from third-party partners such as Google and Facebook for marketing purposes. These cookies allow us to display Sceptre Security promotional material to you on other sites you visit across the Internet. We may also share information about your behaviour on the website with third parties (including operators of third-party websites and/or social networking sites) in order to show you targeted advertisements and other content that has been customized for you.

 

  • Referral Tracking: We may use cookies to associate user activity with the third-party website that referred the user to our website, or to associate user activity that Sceptre Security referred to a third-party website. These third-party partner websites receive credit for the activity of users they refer to our website, or give us credit for the activity of users referred to such third-party websites. We do not share any personal information or information about individual user activities with these partner entities.

SECTION 5- BROWSER COOKIE SETTINGS

Some people find the idea of a website storing information on their device a little intrusive, in particular when the information is stored and used by a third party. For example, you may object to being served advertising which is targeted to your interests based on your browsing history. If you would prefer to opt out of cookies, it is possible to control cookies by following the steps below, however you should be aware that you might lose some features and functionality of the website if you do so.

Cookies, including those which have already been set, can be deleted from your hard drive. You can also change the preferences/settings in your web browser to control cookies. Some internet browsers have a ‘Do Not Track or ‘DNT’ setting; this sends a signal to websites asking them not to track your browsing.

We have very limited control over these ‘third party’ cookies, so we suggest that you check the respective privacy policies for these external services to help you understand what data these organizations hold about you, what they do with it and how you can opt-out of the same.
