Cookie policy
This policy applies to your use of our website, https://www.getsona.com (our website).
If you have any questions about this policy please contact us using the details found in our privacy notice.
1. What are cookies?
A cookie is a small file of letters and numbers that we store on your browser or the hard drive of your computer if you agree. Cookies contain information that is transferred to your computer's hard drive.
Our website uses cookies and other similar technologies (together referred to as “cookies” in this policy) to distinguish you from other users of our website. This helps us to provide you with a good experience when you browse our website and also allows us to improve our website.
2. What types of cookies do we use?
We use both “session” cookies and “persistent” cookies:
- A persistent cookie consists of a text file sent by a web server to a web browser, which allows us to collect and analyze traffic and use of the website, monitor the system and improve operating performance, for example, store your preferences to enhance your subsequent visits. It is stored by the browser after the browser is closed and remains valid until its set expiry date (unless deleted by the user before the expiry date).
- A session cookie is used to manage access to reserved features. It is stored temporarily during a browsing session and expires at the end of the session, when the web browser is closed.
We use these cookies for the following purposes:
- Essential cookies. These are cookies that are strictly required for the operation of our website.
- Analytics cookies. These allow us to recognise and count the number of visitors and to see how visitors move around our website when they are using it. This helps us to improve the way our website works, for example, by ensuring that users are finding what they are looking for easily.
- Functionality cookies. These are used to recognise you when you return to our website. This enables us to personalise our content for you and remember your preferences (for example, your choice of language or region).
- Marketing cookies. These cookies record your visit to our website, the pages you have visited and the links you have followed. We will use this information to make our website and any advertising displayed on it more relevant to your interests. We may also share this information with third parties for this purpose.
Other tracking technologies we use
- Clear GIFs, pixel tags and other technologies. Clear GIFs are tiny graphics with a unique identifier, similar in function to cookies. In contrast to cookies, which are stored on your computer’s hard drive, clear GIFs are embedded invisibly on web pages. We may use clear GIFs (a.k.a. web beacons, web bugs or pixel tags), in connection with our website and services to, among other things, track the activities of website visitors and users, help us manage content, and compile statistics about website usage. We and our third party service providers also use clear GIFs in HTML emails to our customers, to help us track email response rates, identify when our emails are viewed, and track whether our emails are forwarded.
- Local Storage Objects. We may use Flash Local Storage Objects (“Flash LSOs”) to store your website preferences and to personalize your visit. Flash LSOs are different from browser cookies because of the amount and type of data stored. Typically, you cannot control, delete, or disable the acceptance of Flash LSOs through your web browser. For more information on Flash LSOs, or to learn how to manage your settings for Flash LSOs, go to the Adobe Flash Player Help Page, choose “Global Storage Settings Panel” and follow the instructions. To see the Flash LSOs currently on your computer, choose “Website Storage Settings Panel” and follow the instructions to review and, if you choose to, delete any specific Flash LSO.
- Third Party Ad Networks. We use third parties such as network advertisers to serve advertisements on our website, third-party websites or other media (e.g. social networking platforms). This enables us and these third parties to target advertisements to you for products and services in which you might be interested. Third-party ad network providers, advertisers, sponsors and/or traffic measurement services may use cookies, JavaScript, web beacons (including clear GIFs), Flash LSOs and other tracking technologies to measure the effectiveness of their ads and to personalize advertising content to you. These third-party cookies and other technologies are governed by each third party’s specific privacy or cookies policy, not this one.
- Mobile Application Software Development Kits (SDKs). We may use third-party software development kits (“SDKs”) in our apps. A SDK is third-party computer code that may be used by our service providers or partners to collect information about your device and use of our apps for a variety of purposes, including to provide us with analytics regarding the use of our mobile applications, to integrate with social media, add features or functionality to our app, or to facilitate online advertising.
3. How you can manage cookies
Consent
We will use cookies, which are not strictly necessary for the operation of the website, only with your prior consent. You can adjust or withdraw your consent regarding the use of such cookies using the cookies preference centre at any time with effect for the future.
Browser settings
The majority of browsers will allow you to alter the settings used for cookies and to disable and enable them as you require.
You can reject all cookies (except strictly necessary cookies) if you prefer not to receive them, and you can have your computer warn you whenever cookies are being used. You can delete the cookies that are already on your computer, and you can set your browser to prevent them from being placed. Disabling cookies may, however, prevent some web services (including on this website) from working correctly. Please be aware that when you have set your computer to reject cookies, it can limit the functionality of the website and it is possible that you will not have access to some of the features on the website.
To disable or delete cookies, or to receive a warning whenever cookies are being used, you can adjust your browser settings. You can adjust your browser settings to delete certain cookies. Visit the "help" section of your browser for how to manage your cookie settings, or follow the links below:
- Microsoft Edge: Delete cookies in Microsoft Edge - Microsoft Support
- Mozilla Firefox: Clear cookies and site data in Firefox | Firefox Help (mozilla.org)
- Google Chrome: Clear cache & cookies - Computer - Google Account Help
- Safari: Clear cookies in Safari on Mac – Apple Support (UK)
For further general information on cookies and more detailed advice on how to disable and enable them please visit http://www.allaboutcookies.org.
You can control which types of cookie are set by changing your preferences through our cookie banner when you first visit our website.
Opting out of third-party ad networks
You have the ability to opt out of any third-party ad networks. For example, you may go to the Digital Advertising Alliance (“DAA”) Consumer Choice Page for information about opting out of interest-based advertising and their choices regarding having information used by DAA companies. You may also go to the Network Advertising Initiative (“NAI”) Consumer Opt-Out Page for information about opting out of interest-based advertising and their choices regarding having information used by NAI members.
Opting out from one or more companies listed on the DAA Consumer Choice Page or the NAI Consumer Opt-Out Page will opt you out from those companies’ delivery of interest-based content or ads to you, but it does not mean you will no longer receive any advertising through our website or on other websites. You may continue to receive advertisements, for example, based on the particular website that you are viewing (i.e. contextually based ads). Also, if your browsers are configured to reject cookies when you opt out on the DAA or NAI websites, your opt out may not be effective. Additional information is available on the DAA’s website at www.aboutads.info or the NAI’s website at www.networkadvertising.org.
