What Are Cookies?

So, cookies are basically tiny bits of text that your web browser or device saves. They come with a name, an expiration date, and a unique code. Sometimes they also store stuff like your device's settings and your browsing history. 

​

Different Types of Cookies

There are two main kinds of cookies: first-party and third-party. First-party cookies are put on your device by us directly. For example, we use these to remember your language settings and to see how you’re using our site. Third-party cookies come from our partners and service providers.

​

Session vs. Persistent Cookies

We’ve got session cookies and persistent cookies. Session cookies are temporary and vanish as soon as you close your browser. We use them to understand your visit and make your experience smoother. Persistent cookies stick around longer and help you stay logged in, analyze trends, and more.

What About Other Tracking Tech?

So, besides cookies, we also use some other cool tech like web beacons (also known as pixels, tags, or clear gifs), tracking URLs, and SDKs. Web beacons are like tiny graphics with a unique code that lets us know if you’ve visited our site or opened one of our emails. Tracking URLs help us figure out where visitors are coming from. SDKs are little code snippets in apps that do similar things to cookies and web beacons. To keep things simple (which we like to do at KIS #wink), we’ll call all of these “cookies” in this policy.

​

What Do We Use Cookies For?

Just like most online services, we use cookies to keep things running smoothly, remember your preferences, and make your experience better. They help us recognize you when you visit, track how well our marketing is doing, and serve up ads that match your interests. We might even link cookie info with other details we have about you to make things even more personal.

When you use our services, you might see one or more types of cookies pop up on your device.
