Cookie Policy
dataJAR use cookies to help us monitor, maintain and promote our website. Please see below for information on the cookies we use, why we use them and how you can opt of our these cookies should you wish to do so.
What are Cookies?
Cookies are small computer text files that are placed onto the device that you use to browse the internet (Desktop, laptop, mobile, tablet, etc). They contain unique pieces of information, so that when you visit another page of our website, or potentially another website all together, that unique code can be used to tell us which pages of the site you visit, which preferences you have opted to use and occasionally if you visit another website that we choose to partner with (such as Facebook or a website with Google Ads).
Can I be identified by Cookies?
While each cookie is unique, allowing software to track that code across parts of the web. The code does not identify you personally, it does not run any kind of program or application on your device and it does not gather or harvest information from your device. dataJAR cannot and does not seek to identify you, only to give your device a unique code to allow us to interact with it.
It is possible however to use cookies as part of a larger framework of information (IP address, approximate location, etc) to try to identify you more accurately - dataJAR do not use this information to identify you but other internet companies might. This is why it is important for internet users to understand the role of Cookies and how to control their use.
