What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you interact with online services and access certain websites. These cookies do not recognize you personally but rather the device you use or capture your preferences. Cookies can be used to remember information about your visit, such as language settings, or track when you last logged in, helping improve your experience with our Sites. Other similar technologies such as pixels, web beacons, and local storage are also used for these purposes.

Types of Cookies We Use

Essential Cookies

These cookies are crucial for the proper functioning of our Website. They are used to store your preferences, detect misuse of our Website and services, and distribute the load on our servers, ensuring that the Website remains available. Some services you request may not be available without these cookies.

Web Statistics Cookies

These cookies help us understand which parts of our Website are of interest to our visitors. By tracking visitor behavior (such as the number of visitors, time spent on pages, and pages visited), we can make improvements to our Website’s structure, navigation, and content. Third-party software, such as Google Analytics, may be used to track web statistics. Information generated by Google Analytics may be transferred to and stored on a Google server in the United States. As IP address anonymization is enabled, Google will mask your IP address before collecting any data.

Social Media Cookies

Our Website may integrate third-party plug-ins (such as a Facebook “like” button). Even if you do not interact with these plug-ins, they may still collect information such as your IP address and the pages you view. These plugins are governed by the privacy policies of the respective third parties.

Advertising Cookies

We may use third-party tracking mechanisms to collect data over time and across various websites for the purpose of interest-based advertising. For instance, third-party advertisers may use your visit to our Website to show you ads for xCloud products on other websites. In addition, these advertisers may use information about your activity on our Website or apps to show you targeted advertisements based on your online behavior. We or our third-party service providers may also link your activity across different devices (such as smartphones, tablets, and computers) for targeted advertising, analytics, and reporting purposes. This means that if you log into the same online service on multiple devices, we may combine information about your activity on these devices for analysis or to serve more relevant ads.

Using Cookies for Retargeting
