GlobalSign Cookie Policy
<p>To improve your experience on our website, GlobalSign uses cookies.
Cookies are small text files stored on your computer or browser.
These files remember when you visit a website and when you log in to an online portal.</p>
<p>Normally cookies do not find or contain any personal identifiable information (PII) from your computer.
Any personal information they might contain will be a result of your input into a website form.
When a cookie does store personal information from a web form it is coded so that it is unreadable to anyone but the party that created it.</p>
<p>This page explains what cookies are, how we use them to create a better experience for you and how you can control cookies on your computer.</p>
How GlobalSign Uses Cookies
<p>We may collect information about your behaviour on our website when you visit.
The cookies will allow us to analyze information such as how long you spend on our website and what pages you visit.

Types of Cookies
<p>Here is some information on different types of cookies.</p>
Temporary Cookies/Session Cookies
<p>Session cookies are automatically removed from your browser once you close it.
Websites use temporary cookies to store information like items you have recently browsed.</p>
Persistent Cookies
<p>These stay on your browser after it’s closed and are often used so you don’t have to re-enter information every time you visit a site.
For example, if you abandon a shopping cart and visit it again a few weeks later to find the items are still in your checkout – this will be because of persistent cookies.</p>
First-Party Cookies
<p>First-party cookies are set by the website you visit.
They may be used to track preferences and even store personal information within a site.</p>
Authentication Cookies
<p>These are used by web servers to check whether or not you are logged in to serve you with private information related to your authentication.</p>
Third-Party Cookies
<p>Many sites use third-party cookies which collect data and send information to sites that do not have a direct relationship with the website you are visiting.</p>
<p>For example, Facebook uses cookies to track your web visits while you are logged in and serve up relevant and personalized ads.</p>
