What Are Cookies?
A cookie is a very small text document, which often
includes an anonymous unique identifier. When you visit a website, that site’s
computer asks your computer for permission to store this file in a part of your
hard drive specifically designated for cookies. Each website can send its own
cookie to your browser if your browser’s preferences allow it, but (to protect your
privacy) your browser only permits a website to access the cookies it has
already sent to you, not the cookies sent to you by other sites. Some of our
business partners (e.g., advertisers) use cookies that originate from their sites.
We have no access or control over those cookies. You can decide if and how
your computer will accept cookies by configuring your preferences option within
your web browser. To disable this function in your web browser, choose the
“help” menu and follow the instructions for deleting cookies and preventing your
browser from downloading additional cookies. Use of Cetana Group service
requires your acceptance of cookies. Cetana Group does not permanently store
personal or confidential information in cookies (although our third party
advertisers may. We take no responsibility for their actions).
-

As you browse, the
Website uses its cookies to differentiate you from other users. In some cases,
we also use cookies to prevent you from seeing unnecessary advertisements or
requiring you to log in more than is necessary for security. Cookies, in
conjunction with our server’s log files, allow us to calculate the aggregate
number of people visiting the Website and which parts of the site are most
popular. This helps us gather feedback in order to constantly improve our
Website and better serve site users. Cookies do not allow us to gather any
personal information about you and we do not store any personal information
that you provided to us in your cookies.

parties if we have determined that the information will be used in a responsible
manner by a responsible third party. We also use third parties to facilitate our
business, including, but not limited to, sending email and promotional
campaigns. In connection with these offerings and business operations, our
partners and other third parties may have access to your personal information
