Cookies Notice

Our services (including our website, app, mobile app and email communications, together the “Services”) uses cookies and other device identification technologies (“cookies”), to provide our Services, to understand how they are used, and for advertising purposes. You can read more about the types of cookies we use, why we use them and how you can exercise your cookies choices below.

Our websites include widgets, which are interactive mini-programs that run on our site to provide specific services from another company (such as displaying the news, opinions, music, and more). Personal information, such as your email address, may be collected through the widget. Cookies may also be set by the widget to enable it to function properly. Information collected by this widget is governed by the privacy policy of the company that created it.

What are cookies?

Cookies are small pieces of information or text that are issued to your computer when you visit a website and are used to store or track information about your use of the site.
 
Defendify uses both session-based and persistent-based cookies. Session-based cookies exist only during your web session and expire when you close your internet browser. Persistent-based cookies are files that stay in one of your browser’s subfolders until you delete them manually or your browser deletes them based on the duration period contained within the persistent cookie’s file.
 
Our websites use cookies in order to offer a more tailored experience in the future, by understanding and remembering an individual’s particular browsing preferences, and for marketing purposes.
 
Many cookies on our websites perform essential functions and enable users to move around our websites and use their features; for example, when users log in to their account, they remember the information in the account. We refer to these cookies in this policy as “strictly necessary.“
 
Other cookies are not essential, but they help us understand how our websites are used by visitors, so that we can improve what we do online. We use analytics modules for this. They look at things like how long our websites take to load, how they are used, and what information visitors to our sites look at most. This helps us to improve the way our websites work, for example, by ensuring that users find what they are looking for easily. They also help identify any parts of our websites that aren’t working as well as they should – so we can fix things and make our websites better for users. We refer to these cookies in this policy as “performance.“
 
Additional cookies allow our websites to recognize you when you return to our websites. This enables us to remember choices that you make (such as user name, language or the region you are in) and provide enhanced, more personal features. We refer to these cookies in this policy as “functionality.” Some cookies are for marketing purposes and we refer to these cookies in this policy as “marketing.”

Do not track

While Defendify attempts to honor do not track (“DNT”) instructions we receive from your browser, we cannot guarantee that Defendify will always respond to such signals, in part because of the lack of common industry standard for DNT technology. We continue to monitor developments in DNT technology and stay apprised of DNT industry standards as they evolve.

Web beacons

Web beacons (also known as internet tags, pixel tags, and clear GIFs) are clear electronic images that can recognize certain types of information on your computer, such as the type of browser used to view a website page, when you viewed a particular site linked to the Web beacon, and a description of a site tied to the Web beacon. Certain pages on our Website may contain such Web beacons, which Defendify uses to operate and improve the Website.

IP addresses

An IP address is a unique identifier that certain electronic devices use to identify and communicate with each other on the Internet. When you visit our Website, we may view the IP address of the device you use to connect to the Internet. We use this information to determine the general physical location of the device and the geographic regions of our visitors.

Google Analytics

Google Analytics is used to collect and process data on our websites. Google Analytics collects information such as how often users visit this site, what pages they visit when they do so, and what other sites they used prior to coming to this site. The information obtained from Google Analytics is only used to improve this site. Google Analytics collects only the IP address assigned to you on the date you visit this site, rather than any other identifying information. Google Analytics plants a permanent cookie on your web browser to identify you as a unique user the next time you visit this site but this cookie cannot be used by anyone but Google.
