This Cookie Policy explains what cookies are and how we use them. You should read this policy to understand what cookies are, how we use them, the types of cookies we use i.e, the information we collect using cookies and how that information is used and how to control the cookie preferences.
Your consent applies to the following domains: isuf2021.com

What are cookies ?
Cookies are small text files that are used to store small pieces of information. The cookies are stored on your device when the website is loaded on your browser. These cookies help us make the website function properly, make the website more secure, provide better user experience, and understand how the website performs and to analyse what works and where it needs improvement. Cookies can be classified in three categories depending on what purpose they serve, how long they endure and where they come from.
Duration
- Session cookies: These cookies are temporary and expire once you close your browser (or once your session ends).
- Persistent cookies: This category encompasses all cookies that remain on your hard drive until you erase them or your browser does, depending on the cookie’s expiration date. All persistent cookies have an expiration date written into their code, but their duration can vary. According to the ePrivacy Directive, they should not last longer than 12 months.
Provenance
- First-party cookies: As the name implies, first-party cookies are put on your device directly by the website you are visiting.
- Third-party cookies: These are the cookies that are placed on your device, not by the website you are visiting, but by a third party like an advertiser or an analytic system.
Purpose
- Necessary cookies: Also known as “essential cookies”, these cookies are essential for you to browse the website and use its features, such as accessing secure areas of the site. Cookies that allow web shops to hold your items in your cart while you are shopping online are an example of strictly necessary cookies. These cookies will generally be first-party session cookies. While it is not required to obtain consent for these cookies, what they do and why they are necessary should be explained to the user.
- Preferences cookies: Also known as “functionality cookies,” these cookies allow a website to remember choices you have made in the past, like what language you prefer, what region you would like weather reports for, or what your user name and password are so you can automatically log in.
- Performance cookies: Also known as “statistics cookies,” these cookies collect information about how you use a website, like which pages you visited and which links you clicked on. None of this information can be used to identify you. It is all aggregated and, therefore, anonymized. Their sole purpose is to improve website functions. This includes cookies from third-party analytics services as long as the cookies are for the exclusive use of the owner of the website visited.
- Marketing cookies: These cookies track your online activity to help advertisers deliver more relevant advertising or to limit how many times you see an ad. These cookies can share that information with other organizations or advertisers. These are persistent cookies and almost always of third-party provenance.
What types cookies do we use and what for?
Our website uses only first-party cookies, including necessary cookies that allows the website to function the right way, preference cookies that allow the website to remember choices you have made in the past and performance cookies collecting anonymised information on website usage (i.e. number of visits, number of unique IDs, visited pages etc.).
This website does NOT use any third-party marketing cookies and does NOT not share any of your personally identifiable information with third-party sites or providers.
