COOKIE POLICY

This cookie policy (“Cookie Policy”) describes how Orchestrade (“Orchestrade”, “we” or “us”) treats the information we collect when you access and use the Orchestrade website (“Website”). Please read this Cookie Policy carefully before using the Website.

1. WHAT IS A COOKIE?

A cookie is a small file, consisting of a string of information of letters and numbers, downloaded on to a device when a person accesses certain websites. Cookies are then sent back to originating website on each subsequent visit. Cookies are useful because they allow a website to recognize a person’s device.

Orchestrade uses cookies to identify and track your usage of the Website, and your Website access preferences. Any person who does not wish to have cookies placed on their computer should set their browsers to refuse cookies before using the Website, keeping in mind that certain features of the Website may not function properly without the help of cookies.

2. HOW CAN A USER DISABLE OR BLOCK COOKIES?

You can also restrict or block cookies, which are set during your use of the Website by changing your browser’s settings. Some features of the Website may not work if you completely disable cookies, but many types of cookies may be blocked without having an impact on the Website’s usability. We advise you to check the information in your browser’s help section for specific instructions on how to manage cookies.

For general information about cookies, see http://www.allaboutcookies.org/. Please note that this link is provided as a convenience and for informational purposes only and does not constitute an approval of any information or opinion by Orchestrade. We bear no responsibility of the accuracy, legality or content of the external site or for that of subsequent links. Please contact the external site for answers or questions regarding its content.

3. WHAT TYPE OF DATA IS COLLECTED?

We collect information that does not qualify as personal data under applicable data protection legislation (“Personal Data”). The information collected is of the sort that web browsers and servers typically make available, such as the operating system, the browser type, language preference, referring site, and the date and time of each request to the Website.

Orchestrade’s purpose in collecting such information is to better understand how a person uses the Website. We may also collect information like Internet Protocol (IP) addresses that may qualify as Personal Data because it relates to an identified or identifiable person. Orchestrade, however, does not use such information to identify any particular person and does not disclose such information pursuant to this Cookie Policy.

Such information may be collected with the help of analytics tools. These technologies can tell us things like how a person arrived on the Website, if this person has visited the Website before, how long a person stays on the Website, and which pages this person visits.

Any use and/or collection of Personal Data is governed by our Privacy Policy, available here.

4. WHY AND HOW ARE COOKIES USED BY ORCHESTRADE?

There are broadly four reasons why a cookie might be stored on your device when visiting the Website:

  • cookies that make the Website work properly for you and enable you to browse the Website securely;
  • cookies that collect data about your use of the Website which is used to help Orchestrade to improve online products and/or services;
  • cookies that remember your preferences and make the Website easier for you to use; and
  • cookies that are placed by third party services we make use of to enhance the information we presents online. Orchestrade has no control over these third party cookies.

These cookies are placed on your device either by us or by the third parties whose services we use as part of the Website. Some cookies are retained in your browser for only as long as you visit the Website, while others persist for a longer specified or unspecified period.

5. HOW LONG WILL COOKIES STAY ON MY DEVICE?

The length of time a cookie will stay on your computer or mobile device depends on whether it is a “persistent” or “session” cookie. Session cookies will only stay on your device until you stop browsing. Persistent cookies stay on your computer or mobile device until they expire or are deleted.
