What is a cookie?

A cookie is a small text file stored on your computer or other internet-connected device to identify your browser, provide analytics, and remember information about you, such as your language preference or login information. Cookies are completely safe and cannot be used to run programs or deliver viruses to your device.

Why do we use cookies?

We use first-party and/or third-party cookies on our website for a variety of purposes, such as:

  • To make our website work properly;
  • To improve your experience on our website and make navigation faster and easier;
  • To let us create a personalized user experience and understand what is useful or interesting to you;
  • To analyze how our website is used and how best to customize it;
  • To identify prospective customers and personalize marketing and sales interactions with them;
  • To tailor online advertising to your interests.

What types of cookies do we use?

Cookies may be session cookies or persistent cookies. A session cookie expires automatically when you close your browser. A persistent cookie remains until it expires or until you delete your cookies. Expiration dates are set in the cookies themselves; some may expire after a few minutes, while others may expire after several years. Cookies placed by the website you are visiting are called "first-party cookies."

We use the following types of cookies on our website:

Essential cookies

We use essential cookies to make our website work. These cookies are strictly necessary to enable core features such as security, network management, cookie preferences, and accessibility. Without them, you would not be able to use basic services. You can disable them by changing your browser settings, but this may affect how the site functions.

Performance and functionality cookies

These cookies are used to improve the performance and functionality of our website but are not essential to its use. However, without these cookies, certain features may become unavailable or you may be asked to enter your login information each time you visit the website because we will not be able to remember that you were previously logged in.

Marketing cookies

These account-based marketing cookies allow us to identify prospective customers and personalize sales and marketing interactions with users.

Analytics and customization cookies

These cookies collect information that helps us understand how our website is being used, how effective our marketing campaigns are, or how we can better customize our website for you.

We use cookies served by Google Analytics to collect limited data directly from end-user browsers so we can better understand how our website is used. More information on how Google collects and uses this data can be found at https://www.google.com/policies/privacy/partners/. You can opt out of all Google-supported analytics on our sites by visiting https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout.

Advertising cookies

These cookies collect information over time about your online activity on the site and other online services to make online advertising more relevant and effective for you. This is known as interest-based advertising. They also perform functions such as preventing the same ad from appearing repeatedly and ensuring that ads are displayed properly for advertisers. Without cookies, it is very difficult for an advertiser to reach its audience or know how many ads were shown and how many clicks they received.

Third-party cookies

Some cookies set on our website are not set by Workus.org. The site may include third-party content to serve advertising. Those third-party service providers may place their own cookies in your browser. Third-party service providers control many of the performance and functionality, advertising, marketing, and analytics cookies described above. We do not control the use of these third-party cookies, since cookies can only be accessed by the third party that originally set them.

How can you manage cookies?

Most browsers allow you to control cookies through their settings preferences. However, if you limit the ability of websites to set cookies, your overall user experience may worsen because it will no longer be personalized to you. It may also prevent you from saving customized settings such as login information. Browser manufacturers provide help pages related to cookie management in their products.

Blocking and disabling cookies and similar technologies

Wherever you are located, you may also set your browser to block cookies and similar technologies, but this action may block our essential cookies and prevent our website from functioning properly, and you may not be able to fully use all of its features and services. You should also be aware that you may lose some saved information, such as saved login details or site preferences, if you block cookies in your browser. Different browsers make different controls available to you. Disabling a cookie or category of cookie does not delete the cookie from your browser. You will need to do that yourself within your browser. You should visit your browser's help menu for more information.
