This Cookie Policy (this “Policy”) describes how STAR HARBOR Space Academy, and our brands and subsidiaries (collectively, “Company”, “us” or “we”) may use web browser cookies, web beacons, also known as “tracking pixels,” and other tracking technologies in association with the operation of the websites that Company owns or controls (today or in the future), including www.starhaboracademy.com, Company’s mobile applications, and Company’s html-formatted emails (collectively these technologies are referred to in this Policy as “Cookies”).
WHAT ARE THESE TECHNOLOGIES?
Web Browser Cookies. A web browser cookie is a small text file that is sent by a website to your computer or mobile device where it is stored by your web browser. Web browser cookies may store information such as your IP address or other identifier, your browser type, and information about the content you view and interact with on digital services. By storing such information, web browser cookies can remember your preferences and settings for online services and analyze how you use online services. Below are some common terms that may help you to better understand cookies and how they work.
First- and third-party cookies: Whether a cookie is ‘first’ or ‘third’ party refers to the domain placing the cookie. First-party cookies are those set by a website that is being visited by the user. An example would be the cookies placed by Company when you visit our website. Third-party cookies are cookies that are set by a domain other than that of the website being visited by the user. For example, if a user visits the digital services and another entity sets a cookie through our website, this would be a third-party cookie.
Persistent cookies: These cookies remain on a user’s device for the period of time specified in the cookie. They are activated each time the user visits the website that created the particular cookie.
Session cookies: These cookies allow website operators to link the actions of a user during a browser session. A session starts when a user opens the browser and ends when they close the browser. Session cookies are temporary, so all session cookies are deleted when the user closes the browser.
Web Beacons. Web beacons or “tracking pixels” (sometimes also referred to as tags) are small images which are embedded into our digital services that provide us with information about your browser or device, or whether you open or click on the emails we send you. This information is used to help our website and app publishers better analyze and improve their services to us.
Tracking Via Mobile Applications. When you use mobile applications, unique identifiers associated with your device (such as the device ID and IP address), your activity within the app and your network location may be recorded. This information may be used to analyze, improve and customize digital services.
HOW DO WE USE COOKIES?
Our digital services use four categories of Cookies, which are explained in greater detail below.
“Strictly Necessary” or Essential Cookies: These Cookies let you navigate through the digital services and use essential features like secure areas (e.g., log in activity, payment activity, etc.).
