1. What are Cookies
Cookies are small blocks of data created by a web server while a user is browsing a website, placed on the user’s computer or device by the user’s web browser.
The purpose of cookies is to enable the storage of stateful information on the user’s device, to track browsing activity, to store data entered in form fields for later use, and to authenticate users.
Cookies may remain on your computer or mobile device for different periods of time. Some cookies are “session cookies,” which means that they are stored temporarily on your computer or other device only while your browser is open. They are automatically deleted from your computer or other device when you close your browser.
Other cookies are “persistent cookies,” which means that they remain on your computer or other device after you close your browser. They can be used by websites to recognize your computer when you open your browser and browse the Internet again.
Cookies set by the website owner (in this case, JaySearch) are called “first party cookies. Cookies set by parties other than the website owner are called “third party cookies. Third-party cookies enable third parties to provide features or functionality on or through the Website (such as advertising, interactive content, and analytics). The parties that set these third party cookies may recognize your computer both when you visit the Site and when you visit certain other websites.
2. Why Does JaySearch Use Cookies
We use first-party and third-party cookies for several reasons. Some cookies are required for technical reasons in order for our website to function, and we refer to these as “essential” or “strictly necessary” cookies.
Other cookies help us provide you with a better website by allowing us to monitor the pages you find useful and to tailor our website to your needs, likes and dislikes by collecting and remembering information about your preferences.
JaySearch uses cookies for the following purposes:
- To provide you with our website services, allowing you to customize the content or display of our services to your device to improve your navigation and optimize our website;
- To store information related to a form you have already filled out (e.g. your user account) or related to products, services or information of our services (e.g. content consulted, etc.);
- To tailor our content and advertising to your interests;
- To anonymize your personal information for statistical and analytical purposes;
- To compile statistics and audience measurements about the use of our website;
- To manage the security of our services by detecting/tracing any attempt of malice, computer intrusion or violation of the General Conditions of Use;
- To comply with our legal obligations, to respond to requests from third parties who are legally entitled to request the communication of navigation data and/or personal data of users of our services.
- The types of cookies used on the Website are described in more detail below.
3. What Types of Cookies Do We Use
The Website uses different types of Cookies as set out below.
- Strictly Necessary Cookies. These Cookies are necessary to ensure the proper functioning of the Websites and to provide you with the services available through our Websites. They are generally only set in response to your actions that constitute a request for services, such as setting your privacy preferences, logging in, or filling out forms. The information collected by these Cookies is not used for marketing purposes. Because these cookies are necessary for our site to function, they cannot be turned off. You can set your browser to block or warn you about these Cookies, but some parts of the Site may not function properly.
- Functionality Cookies. Functional Cookies allow the Site to remember a user’s preferences and choices made on the Site, including user name, region, and language. This allows the Site to provide personalized features. They are anonymous and do not track browsing activity on other websites. Functional cookies may include first-party, third-party, persistent or session cookies.
- Performance/Analytics Cookies. We use performance/analytics Cookies to analyze how the Site is accessed, used, or performs in order to provide you with a better user experience and to maintain, operate, and continually improve the Site. For example, these Cookies allow us to:
-
- better understand our site visitors so that we can improve the presentation of our content;
- test different design ideas for certain pages, such as our home page;
- collect information about website visitors, such as where they are located and what browsers they are using;
- determine the number of unique users of the Site;
- improve the Site by measuring any errors that occur; and

How to opt out of interest-based advertising: Notwithstanding the above, Users may follow the instructions provided by YourOnlineChoices (EU and UK), the Network Advertising Initiative (US) and the Digital Advertising Alliance (US), DAAC (Canada), DDAI (Japan) or other similar services. Such initiatives allow Users to select their tracking preferences for most of the advertising tools. The Owner thus recommends that Users make use of these resources in addition to the information provided in this document.
The Digital Advertising Alliance offers an application called AppChoices that helps Users to control interest-based advertising on mobile apps.
Consequences of denying the use of Trackers: Users are free to decide whether or not to allow the use of Trackers. However, please note that Trackers help this Application to provide a better experience and advanced functionalities to Users (in line with the purposes outlined in this document). Therefore, if the User chooses to block the use of Trackers, the Owner may be unable to provide related features.
5. Cookies Set in the Past
If you have disabled one or more cookies, we may still use information collected from cookies prior to your preference change, but we will not use the disabled cookie to collect any further information.
6. Other Tracking Technologies
Cookies are not the only way we recognize or track visitors to a website.
From time to time, we may use other similar technologies called pixel tags (or web beacons or clear gifs). These are tiny graphic files that contain a unique identifier that allows us to recognize when someone has visited our websites and to track the online movements of website users. This helps us to better manage the site by telling us what content is effective and to improve the effectiveness of our marketing campaigns. Unlike cookies, which are stored on a user’s computer hard drive, pixels are embedded in Web pages.
In many cases, these technologies rely on cookies to function properly, so rejecting cookies will interfere with their functioning.
7. Cookies from Third Party Sites
When using our Website, you may be directed to other websites (“Third Party Sites”) to complete activities such as surveys, apply for jobs, and view content hosted on those sites, such as an embedded video or news article.
The Third Party Sites may use their own cookies or similar technologies. We have no control over the placement of cookies or other technologies by Third Party
Sites that you visit, even if you are directed to them from our Site. The information you share with Third Party Sites is governed by the specific privacy policies, cookie policies and terms of service of those Third Party Sites, not by this Cookie Policy.
8. Updates to This Cookies Policy
This Cookie Policy may be updated periodically as new cookies are implemented or existing cookies are removed. If necessary, we will notify you of the changes the next time you visit the Site.
We may also update this Cookie Policy based on cookie best practices and legal requirements.
We encourage you to check back here to see the latest version of this Cookie Policy.
