Cookies Policy

This notice explains Chainge’s approach to cookies and other online data collection technologies.
When you visit our website or interact with us we collect information, using technologies such as cookies, browser analysis tools and server logs. Each of these technologies are explained
We use cookies and other online data collection tools for several different purposes.
The usage of cookies

Strictly necessary cookies are used by Chainge to support the core operations of our website. They enable core website functions, such as authentication, security, network management and accessibility. You may be able to disable these by changing your browser settings, but this may affect how the website functions.

Performance and operation cookies are used to manage our website. These activities may include collecting analytics about visitors to our website and collecting information about website usage. We use the information to compile reports and to help us improve the website. These cookies help us gather data to optimize our website’s performance.

Site experience cookies are used to support your experience and include user-selected options and site navigation aids.

Marketing and personalization cookies are used to enable social sharing and to deliver interest-based ads to you online.

Social media cookies are used by us and social media platforms to enable users of the platforms to share content across our sites. We also work with social media platforms to deliver ads to you when you use these platforms. This targeting is done by the platform under its own terms of use.

Advertising cookies used by us and third parties to personalize the ads delivered to you on our site and on other sites. These cookies collect data about your online activity and allow ads to be displayed that may be of relevant interest to you. These cookies also record which ads you have seen and whether you engaged with the ad. These cookies help make sure that the ads you see are valuable to you and not repetitive.

While we do not give any personally identifiable information to the third-party advertising companies, we may place third parties’ cookies and tags when you visit our website. This practice allows these third parties to collect information from you using these technologies on our websites. The information they collect is subject to their own privacy policies.

Choices

Uses of cookies can vary by country or state. For websites in the United States and Europe, Chainge provides you with the ability to manage cookies that are not essential to display our website usage by clicking the Cookie Policy link in the footer of this site. Chainge’s website only places marketing, personalization and advertising cookies if you explicitly accept these cookies by clicking “Accept All Cookies” when you first visit the website. If you have accepted cookies, you can adjust your preferences later.

You can manage cookies and delete cookies from Chainge using your browser settings. Browsers such as Chrome, Internet Explorer, Edge, Firefox and Safari give you the ability to accept, reject or delete cookies. Visit the “help center” for your browser to learn more about how you can do this.

The Network Advertising Initiative (NAI) manages an opt-out program for many third-party advertising companies. You can opt out of being targeted by NAI members by visiting https://www.networkadvertising.org/consumer/opt_out.asp.

On some websites, you may see an AdChoices icon, which may appear on certain targeted ads. You may click on this AdChoices icon to learn more about the collection and use of your information or to opt out of such collection in the future. To learn more about the Digital Advertising Alliance Consumer Choice tool, please visit https://optout.aboutads.info.

In most cases, the choices you make are linked to your browser. If you use different browsers or different devices, you will need to set your preferences on each one. Even if you opt-out, you may still receive ads that are not customized for you, unrelated to your browser settings.

Our websites may enable you to interact with us and others via social media platforms. This functionality is enabled using social media cookies. For example, Chainge allow you to sign in using social media platform credentials. Please read the privacy statements provided by your social media platforms to understand how they use your information and to manage your choices.

We may display interest-based ads to you when you are using social media platforms. These platforms allow us to personalize the ads that we display to you. To enable delivery of these ads, we convert your email address into a unique number. The platforms also convert their users’ emails into unique numbers using the same process. This allows the records to be matched without any exchange of data elements that can identify you on their own. The platforms perform the matching as a service provider to Chainge and they do not retain or use the file that we send them for their own purposes. This process allows the platform to deliver our ads to our customers on the platform. The platforms may gain insights about individuals who respond to the ads we serve.

Our server logs record information about users to our websites. We may use these logs for internal purposes, such as website administration, optimization and security. We may also use the data for fraud-protection, personalization, and advertising.

We collect device identifiers and other device-related information, including your device’s advertising ID, if available. This information is used to identify the device and authenticate you. We may also use device-related information to associate you with different devices that you may use, including for fraud-protection purposes and to better target advertising. In many cases, you can reset your device’s advertising ID. Both Android and iOS devices enable you to reset your device identifier under the “settings” menu.

Cookies

Cookies are small text files that websites send to your computer or other internet-connected devices to uniquely identify your browser or to store information or settings in your browser. Cookies allow us to recognize you when you return. They also help us provide a more custom experience and can enable us to detect certain kinds of fraud.

First-party cookies are those cookies that are placed by Chainge. These cookies are used by Chainge and include all the essential cookies.

Third-party cookies are placed by another company, including service providers, social media cookies and third-party advertising companies. Cookies placed by third parties can be read by these third parties when you visit other sites in the advertising network, allowing a profile of your online behavior to be created so that the third party can deliver targeted ads from all its customers.
