COOKIE POLICY
This Cookie Policy describes how the Birth Planning Centre (“Company”, “us”, “we” and “our”) makes use of cookies on this website [https://genderselectionkit.com] (the “Site”).
Cookies are important to the proper functioning of this Site and we use them to help us offer you the best online experience. By continuing to use this Site, you agree to the use of cookies.
We reserve the right to make changes to this Cookie Policy at any time by giving notice on this page. It is strongly recommended to check this page often, referring to the date of the last modification listed at the bottom.
WHAT ARE COOKIES
Cookies are widely used by online service providers in order to (for example) make their websites or services work, or to work more efficiently, as well as to provide reporting information.
A cookie is a small piece of data that is sent from a web server and stored on your browser or computer’s and/or mobile device’s hard drive. Cookies are used to provide a more customized experience when you visit a website. While we make use of cookies, they are not used to store personal information.
Technologies such as cookies, tags, and scripts are used by us, our marketing, advertising and support partners. These technologies are used in analyzing trends, administering the site, tracking users’ movements around the Site and to gather demographic information about our user base as a whole. We may receive reports based on the use of these technologies by these companies on an individual as well as aggregated basis.
OTHER TRACKING TECHNOLOGIES
We and our third party partners may use other, similar technologies from time to time, like web beacons, pixels (or “clear gifs”) and other tracking technologies. These are tiny graphics files that contain a unique identifier that enable us to recognize when someone has visited our Site or, in the case of web beacons, opened an e-mail that we have sent them. This allows us, for example, to monitor the traffic patterns of users from one page within our Site to another, to deliver or communicate with cookies, to understand whether you have come to our Site from an online advertisement displayed on a third-party website, to serve targeted advertisements to you and others like you, to improve site performance, and to measure the success of marketing campaigns.
While you may not have the ability to specifically reject or disable these tracking technologies, in many instances, these technologies are reliant on cookies to function properly; accordingly, in those instances, declining cookies will impair the functioning of these technologies.
