The purposes and expiry of our cookies
Some cookies that have been set on our websites are not related to Segmatic. When you visit a page with content embedded from, for example, a social networking site, these service providers may set their own cookies on your web browser.
We do not control the use of these cookies as cookies can only be accessed by the party that originally set them. Below is a list of the third-party cookies in use on our website:
Web Beacons
Segmatic uses conversion tracking/remarketing functionality provided by Twitter, Facebook, Google, and other providers to measure the effectiveness of our publicity efforts through on-line advertising.
This involves the use of web beacons (these are also referred to as ‘pixel tags’ or ‘clear gifs’) to provide us with statistical information about site traffic and how people navigate through our site. Web beacons are typically transparent graphic images placed on a site. Web beacons are used in combination with cookies to measure the actions of visitors on web sites. We may use web beacons to obtain information such as the URL of the page on which the beacon appears, the time the page containing the beacon was viewed, and the type of browser used to view the page.
We may also use web beacons in marketing emails sent by our system. If you receive the HTML formatted version of such emails and your email is configured to download images, a record of whether or not you open the email (and, if you open the email, how frequently you open it) will be saved with your subscriber history. Your engagement with the content of the communication (such as which links you click on) will also be recorded.
We may use this information in aggregated form to give us an indication of the popularity of content and to help us make decisions about future content and formatting. We may also use the information to publish more content relevant to users in future issues and to unsubscribe recipients who haven't opened our emails for a period of time.
