Lorem Technologies, Inc. dba Storetasker (“Storetasker,” “we,” “our,” or “us”) is committed to transparency with respect to its data collection and use practices. This Cookie Policy (“Cookie Policy”) explains how we use cookies and related technologies throughout the Site and use of the Services and your related choices. Please note that this Cookie Policy is provided as a statement about privacy and Storetasker’s use of cookies and similar technologies. Capitalized terms used in this Cookie Policy but not defined herein will have the meanings given to them in the Storetasker Privacy Notice.

1. "Cookies” Explained and Why They are Used

A cookie is a small piece of data (text file) that a website – when visited by a user – asks your browser to store on your computer or device in order to remember information about you, such as your IP address, device identifier, language and/or currency preference or login information. You can find more information about cookies at: www.allaboutcookies.org or www.youronlinechoices.eu.

The term cookie actually describes a range of technologies that are deployed when you visit a website and/or embedded in the web pages and/or emails you receive and typically stored on your computer, device and/or web browser, including, “web beacons” and/or “tracking tags” which are small graphics, which may be invisible to you, that have a unique identifier and are embedded in the web pages you visit and/or email message you receive, and “embedded scripts” which are programming codes that are designed to collect information about your interactions with the Services, such as the links you click on.

We’ll use the term “cookie” throughout this Cookie Policy to cover all of these technologies, but we’ll make sure we provide you with clear details about them all so that you can make informed choices about your cookie settings.

Cookies may be used for many different purposes. For example, cookies can be used to show that you have previously visited the Site or used a feature of the Services and to identify which parts of the Services you might be most interested in. Cookies can also improve your online experience by storing your preferences during your visit to the Site and/or use of the Services. Cookies can also be used for security, fraud detection and authentication purposes.
