We may use cookies and other identification technologies for record keeping purposes and to enhance your experience on the InterKanect Platform.
Cookies:
Cookies are small text files stored on a visitor’s web browser and applications. Cookies are often used to make web-browsing easier by performing functions such as saving passwords and maintaining lists of personal preferences regarding the use of the website.
The InterKanect Platform may use the following types of cookies:
Strictly Necessary Cookies - these cookies are essential to enable you to browse the InterKanect Platform and use the available features.
Performance Cookies - these cookies collect information about how you use the InterKanect Platform. For instance, these cookies track which pages you visit most. This data may be used to help optimize the InterKanect Platform and make it easier for you to navigate within them. These cookies do not collect information that identifies you; all information is aggregated and anonymous.
Functionality Cookies - these cookies allow the Interkanect Platform to reuser choices you make while browsing, such as geographic location and preferences such as text size and fonts. The information collected by these cookies will not personally identify you.
Other identification technologies that may be used by the InterKanect Platform:
Pixel tags (also called beacons or pixels) - these are small blocks of code installed on (or called by) a webpage or application, which can retrieve certain information about your device and browser, including device type, operating system, browser type and version, website visited, time of visit, referring website, IP address and other similar information.
Software Development Kits (also called SDKs) - function like pixels and cookies, but operate in the mobile application context where pixels and cookies cannot always function. The application developer can install pieces of code (the SDK) into the application to collect certain information about user interaction with the application and information about the user device and network information.
Third-party technologies:
Interkanect may use third-party service providers or work with affiliate or referral partners who are authorized to place cookies, pixel tags or similar technologies on the Interkanect Platform with our permission. These technologies help us compile metrics and analytics (without collecting personally identifiable information) to help improve the InterKanect Platform. Third-party cookies and technologies are covered by the third party’s privacy policy.

While Interkanect attempts to honor the DNT instructions received from a user’s browser, Interkanect cannot guarantee that it will always respond to such signals because a common industry standard for DNT has not been adopted. Interkanect will continue to monitor developments around DNT browser technology.
