At KNAVCPA, we believe in being clear and open about how we collect and use data related to you. This Cookie Policy applies to any KNAVCPA product or service that links to this policy or incorporates it by reference. We use cookies and similar technologies such as pixels, local storage and mobile ad IDs (collectively referred to in this policy as “cookies”) to collect and use data as part of our Services, as defined in our Privacy Policy (“Services”) and which includes our sites, communications and the “Apply with KNAVCPA” and “Share with KNAVCPA” plugins or tags. In the spirit of transparency, this policy provides detailed information about how and when we use these technologies.
By continuing to visit or use our Services, you are agreeing to the use of cookies and similar technologies for the purposes described in this policy. What technologies are used?
| Type of technology | Description | ||
| Cookies | A cookie is a small file placed onto your device that enables KNAVCPA features and functionality. Any browser visiting our sites may receive cookies from us or cookies from third parties such as our customers, partners or service providers. We or third parties may also place cookies in your browser when you visit non-KNAVCPA sites that display ads or that host our plugins or tags.
We use two types of cookies: persistent cookies and session cookies. A persistent cookie lasts beyond the current session and is used for many purposes, such as recognizing you as an existing user, so it’s easier to return to KNAVCPA and interact with our Services without signing in again. Since a persistent cookie stays in your browser, it will be read by KNAVCPA when you return to one of our sites or visit a third party site that uses our Services. Session cookies last only as long as the session (usually the current visit to a website or a browser session). |
||
| Pixels | A pixel is a tiny image that may be embedded within web pages and emails, requiring a call (which provides device and visit information) to our servers in order for the pixel to be rendered in those web pages and emails. We use pixels to learn more about your interactions with email content or web content, such as whether you interacted with ads or posts. Pixels can also enable us and third parties to place cookies on your browser.
|
||
| Local storage | Local storage enables a website or application to store information locally on your device(s). Local storage may be used to improve the KNAVCPA experience, for example, by enabling features, remembering your preferences and speeding up site functionality. | ||
| Other similar technologies | We also use other tracking technologies, such as mobile advertising IDs and tags for similar purposes as described in this Cookie Policy. References to similar technologies in this policy includes pixels, local storage, and other tracking technologies. | ||

DNT is a concept that has been promoted by regulatory agencies such as the U.S. Federal Trade Commission (FTC), for the Internet industry to develop and implement a mechanism for allowing Internet users to control the tracking of their online activities across websites by using browser settings. As such, KNAVCPA does not generally respond to “do not track” signals.
