This Cookie Policy provides detailed information about how and when we use cookies on the Consilient website, available at http://www.(INSERT).com. This Cookie Policy explains these technologies and, where applicable, how you can choose to control them. This Cookie Policy is part of our more comprehensive Privacy Policy.
We may change this Cookie Policy at any time and will post a notice of such changes on our Sites. Please check back to review any updates to this Cookie Policy. The last modified date at the top of this page indicates when this Cookie Policy was last revised. Any changes in this Cookie Policy will become effective when we make the revised Cookie Policy available on or through the Sites.

Yes. As described in our Privacy Policy, we use cookies and other technologies to ensure everyone who uses our Site has the best possible experience. By checking the “Accept” button on our cookie pop-up notice on our Sites, you agree that you have affirmatively consented to and opted-in to our use of cookies as described in this Cookie Policy. Further, by using the Sites, you agree that we can use these technologies as described in this Cookie Policy.

- WHAT IS A COOKIE?
A cookie is a small text file placed onto your device by web sites that you visit. They are widely used in order to make websites and cloud-based services work in a better, more efficient way and to provide information to the owners of the site. For example, they can recognize you and remember important information that will make your use of a website more convenient (e.g., by remembering your viewing preferences and identifying popular content).
Taken alone, cookies do not personally identify you – rather, they merely recognize your Web browser. Unless you choose to identify yourself to Consilient, such as by filling out a web form or you have previously identified yourself to us, you remain anonymous.
- WHAT COOKIES DO WE USE?
We use different types of cookies on our Sites to make your interaction with our Sites easy and meaningful – strictly necessary cookies, functionality cookies, analytics cookies, and advertising cookies. The Sites may include first-party cookies (i.e., cookies that send data directly to Consilient and agents and contractors acting on our behalf, including cookies used to monitor, analyze, and administer the Sites) and third-party cookies (i.e., cookies that send data to our contractors for their commercial use described below).
We use cookies that are session-based and persistent-based. Session cookies exist only during one session. They disappear from your computer or device when you close your browser software or turn off your computer. Persistent cookies remain on your computer or device after you close your browser or turn off your computer for a pre-defined period of time. You can control the use of cookies at the individual browser level (see Section 4 below for instructions on how to do so), but note that if you choose to disable cookies, it may limit your use of certain features or functions on our services and websites.
Below we describe the different types of cookies we may use on the Sites and our purpose for using them. You have the ability to opt out and limit which cookies apply to your use of our Sites – more information on how to change your browser’s cookie settings are provided in Section 5 below.
- Strictly Necessary Cookies.
Some cookies are essential to the operation of our services on the Sites. They are used to facilitate our log-in process, remember your language preference, authenticate users, and enable you to navigate the Sites and to use their features. They are also used by our customer service team for messaging within and on our Sites and analytics. Without these cookies, we may not be able to provide certain services or features, and the Sites may not perform as smoothly for you as we would like.
Because strictly necessary cookies are essential to operate our services on the Sites, if you choose to use a product on our Sites, there is no option to opt out of these cookies.

By evaluating this information, we may more clearly target the information we provide you to the specific items we think you will find interesting, based on your prior online activities and preferences.
We also use third party advertising and targeting cookies. We and our service providers may use advertising and targeting cookies to deliver ads that we believe are more relevant to you and your interests.

- “DO NOT TRACK” SIGNALS.
“Do Not Track” is a concept that has been promoted by regulatory agencies such as the U.S. Federal Trade Commission (“FTC”), for the internet industry to develop and implement a mechanism for allowing Internet users to control the tracking of their online activities across websites by using browser settings. Some web browsers may be configured to send Do Not Track signals to websites, or users may use similar mechanisms, to indicate a user’s preference that certain web technologies not be used to track the user’s online activity. Our Sites do not accept or process such Do Not Track signals or similar mechanisms.
- OUR PRIVACY POLICY.
This Cookie Policy only contains information about Consilient’s use of cookies. Please see our Privacy Policy for a detailed description of how we collect, use, and disclose information about our users.
