Cookie Policy

Use of cookies by the Invoca website. 

This document outlines the practices employed by Invoca ('Invoca', 'we', 'us', 'our') regarding the usage of cookies and similar technologies on our websites and mobile applications. These policies extend to our subsidiaries insofar as they handle your personal information.

Overview

When you access our websites, either we or an authorized third party may place a cookie or similar technology on your device and browser. These technologies collect and process information regarding your online activities across various sites over time. This information may pertain to you, your preferences, or your device, and is primarily utilized to optimize website functionality according to your expectations. While this information typically does not directly identify you, it enables a more personalized browsing experience. Please note that disabling certain types of cookies may affect your site experience and the availability of our services.

What are cookies and similar technologies?

Cookies are small text files that are placed on your computer by websites that you visit. Cookies serve various purposes, such as remembering user preferences, storing items in a shopping cart, and tracking website visitor counts. The table below explains the cookies we use and why.

Why do we use cookies?

We employ cookies and similar technologies for multiple purposes. Firstly, they facilitate the functionality of our website, enabling tasks such as visitor counting, preference retention, and streamlined sign-in processes. Additionally, these technologies aid in assessing user interests across our platforms, enhancing user experiences, refining site navigation, and resolving any technical issues. Moreover, they enable us to deliver interest-based and targeted advertising, ensuring that the content, information, products, and services we provide are more aligned with your preferences. This advertising may extend to other websites, mobile applications, or devices through the utilization of third-party cookies.

In email communications, cookies and similar technologies may be used to track email opens and link clicks, allowing us to gauge engagement. 

During the use of cookies and similar technologies, we may collect certain information, such as your mobile device ID, IP address, and other device-related data, along with behavioral data pertaining to your interactions with our sites (such as pages visited, links clicked, and documents downloaded). It's important to note that our cookies do not store personal information like your name; rather, they assist us in locating information once you're logged in or help in associating your browsing data with you, especially when you engage in actions such as registering for a service, downloading a document, or signing up for a newsletter.

Are cookie settings customizable?

Yes. You have the ability to tailor your cookie settings by accessing the Cookies Preferences link found within the cookies banner or located in the footer of our website. Depending on your region, you may encounter various consent options, including the opportunity to decline all non-essential cookies before they are placed on your browser. Regardless of your location, visitors are empowered to opt out of non-essential cookies through our dedicated cookies preferences center. This centralized hub grants you control over consent for performance, functional, and targeting cookies, allowing you to opt in or out as desired.

Furthermore, you can customize cookie settings for all or specific cookies on your devices by adjusting your web browser settings. For comprehensive guidance on managing cookies, please consult your web browser settings.

What types of cookies do we use?

To enhance the user experience of our visitors, we utilize cookies that can be either set by us directly or by our affiliates and business partners. 

First-Party and Third-Party Cookies

  • First-party cookies are those set directly by the website you are currently visiting, as indicated by the URL displayed in your browser's address bar. 
  • Third-party cookies are placed on your device by entities other than the website you are visiting, such as advertisers or analytics systems. This typically occurs when the website incorporates external elements, such as images, social media plugins, or advertisements, from other sources.

Below, you'll find a breakdown of cookie categories, along with descriptions of how these various types of cookies and similar technologies are employed, as well as options for managing your preferences. However, it's worth noting that not all cookies may be utilized across all jurisdictions or websites.

  • Strictly Necessary cookies — These cookies are essential for you to browse the website and use its features, such as accessing secure areas of the site. Cookies that allow web shops to hold your items in your cart while you are shopping online are examples of strictly necessary cookies. These cookies will generally be first-party session cookies.
  • Preferences cookies — Also known as “functionality cookies,” these cookies allow a website to remember choices you have made in the past, like what language you prefer, what region you would like weather reports for, or what your user name and password are so you can automatically log in.
  • Statistics/Performance cookies — Also known as “performance cookies,” these cookies collect information about how you use a website, like which pages you visited and which links you clicked on. None of this information can be used to identify you. It is all aggregated and, therefore, anonymized. Their sole purpose is to improve website functions. This includes cookies from third-party analytics services as long as the cookies are for the exclusive use of the owner of the website visited.
  • Targeting/Marketing cookies — These cookies track your online activity to help advertisers deliver more relevant advertising or to limit how many times you see an ad. These cookies can share that information with other organizations or advertisers. These are persistent cookies and are almost always of third-party provenance.

How long do cookies remain on a device?

  • Session cookies — These cookies are temporary and expire once you close your browser (or once your session ends).
  • Persistent cookies — This category encompasses all cookies that remain on your hard drive until you erase them or your browser does, depending on the cookie’s expiration date. All persistent cookies have an expiration date written into their code, but their duration can vary. According to the ePrivacy Directive, they should not last longer than 12 months, but in practice, they could remain on your device much longer if you do not take action.

Opting-Out

When you first visit the Invoca website, you will be given the opportunity to opt out of cookies that are not strictly necessary for the website to function correctly. It is possible that for subsequent visits, you will not be asked as the website has remembered your cookie preferences.
