Cookies and Internet advertising
We and our service providers use cookies and other technologies (such as web beacons) and resettable device identifiers for a variety of reasons. We want to make sure you are aware of our use of these technologies. This section explains the technologies we use, what their function is, and your choices regarding their use.

Cookies and similar technologies, web beacons, and resettable device identifiers
Cookies are small files that are typically stored on your device when you access and use websites and use internet services. We also use other technologies, such as browser storage and plugins (e.g., HTML5, IndexedDB, and WebSQL). Just like cookies, these other technologies can store small amounts of data on your device. Web beacons (also called transparent gifs or tracking pixels) often work in conjunction with cookies. Rejecting cookies will, in many cases, limit the effectiveness of web beacons in conjunction with these cookies.

Why does Dinaz Consulting use these technologies?
Cycle International Holding AG uses these technologies for a variety of reasons, including to facilitate access to our service by storing your access data for the next time you log on; to provide, evaluate, understand and improve the use of our services; to enforce our terms, to prevent fraud; to improve website performance, monitor visitor numbers and behavior on our website; to serve and personalize marketing or advertising; and to understand interactions with our emails, marketing and online advertising on third-party websites.

Notes on cookies and resettable device identifiersNecessary cookies:
These cookies are needed for us to provide our website or online services. For example, we and our service providers may use these cookies to verify and identify our members when they use our websites and apps so that we can provide our service to them, and to help us enforce our Terms of Use, prevent fraud, and maintain the security of our service.
Performance and functionality cookies:
These cookies help us customize and optimize your visit to the website or social media offerings. For example, they allow us to remember your preferences and prevent you from having to re-enter information you have already provided (for example, during registration). We also use cookies to collect information (such as popular pages, conversion rates, viewing habits, click-through rates, and other information) about how our visitors use our online offerings. This allows us to improve and personalize the website and service and conduct market research. Deleting these types of cookies may result in limited functionality of our service.
Advertising cookies and resettable device identifiers:
These cookies and resettable device identifiers use information about your use of this and other websites and apps, your response to ads and emails, and to deliver ads that are more relevant to you, as well as for analytics and optimization purposes. This type of advertising is called "interest-based advertising." The advertising cookies associated with our service belong to our service providers.
Some of the websites and apps on which we serve our ads, as well as advertising technology companies we work with to buy, serve, optimize, or measure our ads (collectively, "Advertising Partners"), receive limited information from us in connection with our use of these technologies as part of our targeting, measurement, and optimization (e.g., completed registration steps and website visit information).
This type of information is typically used to assess the effectiveness of our advertising campaigns and optimize them by allowing advertisers to see if someone who saw an ad later registered with our service.

How can I influence the use of these technologies?

Influence the use of self-regulating program resources:
Cycle International Holding AG does not support the following self-regulatory programs that provide additional privacy choices for interest-based advertising:
In Europe: European Interactive Digital Advertising Alliance (EDAA)
Influence the use of other technologies:
There are a number of ways to affect the use of technology similar to cookies, such as browser memory and plugins (e.g., HTML5, IndexedDB, and WebSQL). For example, many popular browsers offer the ability to clear browser memory. You can usually find this feature in the settings; consult your browser's help function or support section to learn more. Other technologies, such as Silverlight memory, can be cleared within the application.
