COMET PLAY COOKIE POLICY

Last updated: January 04, 2021

1. OUR USE OF COOKIES

We use necessary cookies to make our sites and apps work.

2. WHAT ARE COOKIES ?

Cookies are small files / data packets that website providers send to a user’s browser or device when visiting a website or using an app and which are then stored on the user’s device.

COMET PLAY collects the data through cookies to help recognize your browser or device as a previous visitor and to save and remember any preferences that may have been set while your browser was visiting this site. For example, if you register on this site, we may use cookies to remember your registration information, so you do not need to log into our site each time you visit.

3. TYPES OF COOKIES

Cookies can be roughly differentiated by certain criteria.

Firstly, we can distinguish cookies in regards to their “publisher”:

• “First party” cookies are cookies stored on your device by the website you are visiting or app you are using. In this case, that means cookies that our website provided and stored on your computer the moment you visited this website / accepted or declined cookies on this website.
• “Third party” cookies are cookies designed and “published” by providers other than the provider of this website. Please note that we cannot influence or control third-party cookies that are already on your computer at the time of visiting our website, nor do we have the ability to know what information such cookies collect. We recommend that you inform yourself about potential dangers at https://www.youronlinechoices.com/

Secondly, cookies can be distinguished by how long the cookie remains (“duration”) on the user’s device after leaving the website/app:

• Temporary or “session” cookies are removed for the user’s device after the browser has been closed. Websites and apps use these cookies to store temporary data such as e.g. items in a shopping cart.
• Persistent cookies remain on your device after you close your internet browser. Websites use them to save certain pertinent data such as e.g. username and/or password, the language you chose to use during your first visit etc. These cookies may remain on your device for days, months and even years or until they are deleted by the user.

Thirdly, cookies can be distinguished based on their category and/or purpose:

• Essential cookies are cookies that allow the user usage of basic website functions. Blocking or deleting these cookies may significantly decrease website functionality. These cookies do not gather information about you that could be used for marketing or remembering where you’ve been on the internet. These cookies do not identify you as an individual.
• Functional cookies allow users to customize how a website looks for them: they can remember usernames, language preferences and regions, and can be used to provide more personal services like local weather reports and traffic news. The information these cookies collect may include personal data that you have disclosed.
• Analytical/Performance cookies collect data for statistical purposes on how visitors use a website; e.g. gathering data about visits to the website, including numbers of visitors and visits, length of time spent on the website, pages clicked on or where visitors have come from. They don’t contain personal information such as names and email addresses, and are used to improve your user experience of a website. These cookies do not identify you as an individual.
• Targeting cookies or advertising cookies record your visits to particular websites, the pages you have visited and the links you have followed. They are usually used to deliver advertisements more relevant to you, but can also limit the number of times you see an advertisement, and be used to chart the effectiveness of an ad campaign by tracking users’ clicks. Most types of these cookies track consumers via their Device ID or IP address and therefore they may collect personal data, including your online behavior.
