This Cookie
Policy explains how SchoolTracs Limited
("
Company
", "we",
"us", and "our") uses cookies and similar technologies to
recognize you when you visit our websites at
http://www.schooltracs.com,
("Websites"). It explains what these
technologies are and why we use them, as well as your rights to control our use of them.
In some
cases we may use cookies to collect personal information, or that becomes personal
information if we combine it with other information.
What
are cookies?
Cookies are
small data files that are placed on your computer or mobile device when you visit a website.
Cookies are widely used by website owners in order to make their websites work, or to work
more efficiently, as well as to provide reporting information.
Cookies set
by the website owner (in this case, SchoolTracs Limited) are called
"first party cookies". Cookies set by parties other than the website owner are called "third
party cookies". Third party cookies enable third party features or functionality to be
provided on or through the website (e.g. like advertising, interactive content and
analytics). The parties that set these third party cookies can recognize your computer both
when it visits the website in question and also when it visits certain other
websites.
Why do
we use cookies?
We use
first and third
party cookies for several reasons. Some cookies are required for technical reasons in
order for our Websites to operate, and we refer to these as "essential" or "strictly
necessary" cookies. Other cookies also enable us to track and target the interests of our
users to enhance the experience on our Online Properties.
Third parties serve cookies through our Websites for advertising, analytics and other
purposes. This is described in more detail
below.
The
specific types of first and third party cookies served through our Websites and
the purposes they perform are described below (please note that the specific cookies served
may vary depending on the specific Online Properties you visit):
How can I
control cookies?
You can accept or
reject cookies by amending your web browser controls. Because they’re important, our websites and
services might not work like they’re supposed to, and in some cases, might not work at all, if you
decide to reject our cookies.

What
about other tracking technologies, like web beacons?
Cookies are
not the only way to recognize or track visitors to a website. We may use
other, similar technologies from time to time, like web beacons (sometimes called
"tracking pixels" or "clear gifs"). These are tiny graphics files that contain a unique
identifier that enable us to recognize when someone has visited our Websites or opened an e-mail including them. This allows us, for example, to
monitor the traffic
patterns of users from one page within a website to another, to deliver or
communicate with cookies, to understand whether you have come to the website
from an online advertisement displayed on a third-party website, to improve site
performance, and to measure the success of e-mail marketing campaigns. In many
instances, these technologies are reliant on cookies to function properly, and
so declining cookies will impair their functioning.
Do
you serve targeted
advertising?
Third parties may serve cookies on your computer or mobile device
to serve advertising through our Websites. These companies may use information about your visits
to this and other websites in order to provide relevant advertisements about goods and services
that you may be interested in. They may also employ technology that is used to measure the
effectiveness of advertisements. This can be accomplished by them using cookies or web beacons
to collect information about your visits to this and other sites in order to provide relevant
advertisements about goods and services of potential interest to you. The information collected
through this process does not enable us or them to identify your name, contact details or other
details that directly identify you unless you choose to provide these.
How
often will you update this Cookie Policy?
We may
update this Cookie Policy from time to time in order to reflect,
for example, changes to the cookies we use or for other operational, legal or regulatory
reasons. Please therefore re-visit this Cookie Policy regularly to stay informed about
our use of cookies and related technologies.
The
date at the top of this Cookie Policy indicates when it was last
updated.
