COOKIE NOTICE

Sorry no round, sugary and delicious treats here, but we will tell you how our cookies crumble.  While our cookies may not be as exciting as the edible kind, they are still very important. This notice talks about the cookies and similar tracking technologies that we use across the websites we own or operate and all the services we provide to you.

WHAT COOKIES/TRACKING TECHNOLOGIES DO WE USE?

A cookie is a small text file that’s placed on your computer or mobile device when you visit a website. We, and some of our affiliates and third-party service providers, may use a few different types of cookies. Some are persistent cookies (cookies that remain on your hard drive for an extended period of time) and some are session ID cookies (cookies that expire when you close your browser).  Cookies set by the website owner (in this case, Pushpay) are called “first party cookies”. Cookies set by parties other than the website owner are called “third party cookies”.

We also use other tracking technologies like web beacons (sometimes called “tracking beacons” or “clear gifs”) and local storage. These are tiny graphics files that contain a unique identifier that enable us to recognize when someone has visited the Website or opened an email that we have sent them.

We refer to all services we offer from time to time as “Services” and all websites we own or operate (including pushpay.com), collectively as the “Website”.

WHY DO WE USE COOKIES/TRACKING TECHNOLOGY?

There are also cookies set by third parties across our Website and Services. Third party cookies enable third party features or functionality to be provided on or through our Websites and Services, such as advertising, interactive content and analytics. They also enable us to use advertising networks to manage our advertising on other websites.  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
