Cookies Policy

This Cookie Policy explains how Quartic, and our affiliates use cookies and similar technologies to recognize you when you visit our websites and when you use our Services, including our associated mobile applications (Mobile Apps) owned and controlled by Brand Gifts. It explains what these technologies are and why we use them, as well as your rights to control our use of them.

What are cookies?

A cookie is a small file containing a string of characters that is sent to your computer when you visit a website. When you visit the site again, the cookie allows that site to recognize your browser. Cookies may store user preferences and other information.

Cookies provide a convenience feature to save you time or tell the Web server that you have returned to a specific page. For example, if you personalize pages on our websites, or register for the Subscription Service, a cookie helps us to recall your specific information on subsequent visits. When you return to the same website, the information you previously provided can be retrieved, so you can easily use the customized features.

Cookies set by the website owner (in this case, Brand Gifts) are called "first party cookies". Cookies set by parties other than the website owner are called "third party cookies". Third party cookies enable third party features or functionality to be provided on or through the website (e.g., like advertising, interactive content, and analytics). The parties that set these third-party cookies can recognize your computer both when it visits the website in question and also when it visits certain other websites.

Why do we use cookies?

We use first party and third-party cookies for several reasons. Some cookies are required for technical reasons for our websites to operate, and we refer to these as "essential" or "strictly necessary" cookies. Other cookies also enable us to track and target the interests of our users to enhance the experience on our Websites and Subscription Service. For example, Quartic keeps track of the Websites and pages you visit within Quartic, to determine what portion of the Quartic Website or Products are the most popular or most used. This data is used to deliver customized content and promotions within the Quartic Website to customers whose behavior indicates that they are interested in a particular subject area. Third parties serve cookies through our websites for advertising, analytics, and other purposes. This is described in more detail below.

• Analytics and customization cookies: These cookies collect information that is used either in aggregate form to help us understand how our Websites and Mobile Apps are being used or how effective our marketing campaigns are, or to help us customize our websites for you.
• Advertising cookies: These cookies are used to make advertising messages more relevant to you.
