How we use your information
When you use our website
When you use our website to browse our products and services and view the information we make available, a number of cookies are used by us and by third parties to allow the website to function, to collect useful information about visitors and to help to make your user experience better. Some of the cookies we use are strictly necessary for our website to function, and we do not ask for your consent to place these on your computer. These cookies are described below.
What are cookies?
When you visit a website, a text file containing a few pieces of information called a cookie is downloaded to your computer or mobile device. Cookies enable the website to identify your device. According to the definitions below, cookies controlled by Incorta alone are referred to as “first party cookies,” whereas cookies from other parties are referred to as “third party cookies”.
Why do we use cookies and other technologies?
Cookies serve a variety of purposes, including making it easier for you to navigate between pages, remembering your preferences, and overall enhancing the user experience. Additionally, they may assist in making sure that the internet adverts you view are more pertinent to you and your interests. Additionally, cookies can be used to track and support social media activity on our websites and online content, as well as to evaluate how our websites and online content are used (analytics cookies) (e.g. links to social media sites, like buttons, etc.).
Does Incorta use cookies for marketing and analytics?
Yes, to the extent permitted by law in some locations, we may use information gathered from our cookies to identify user activity, to serve content and offers based on your profile, and for the other purposes indicated below. Because of GDPR, this activity is only permitted in the EU with the website visitors’ expplicit consent. Local laws apply to this problem in several of the member states, but may vary from country to country.
In other instances, we are able to link cookie data—including data from cookies set by our advertisers on third-party websites—with a specific person. For instance:
- We will be able to tell whether you open, read, or delete an email if it contains web beacons, cookies, or other similar technology and we send you a targeted message.
- Even if you are not logged in or registered at our website, we may still use a cookie to record the pages you visit and the content you download when you click a link in a marketing email you receive from Incorta
- Combining and analyzing personal data – As previously mentioned, we may combine data from publicly accessible sources, as well as from our various e-mail, website, and personal interactions with you. This includes information gathered across our various websites, such as our corporate and careers sites, as well as information gathered when you sign-up for, log on to, or connect to our sites using your social media credentials (such as LinkedIn). We aggregate this data in order to analyze your experience with Incorta and carry out the additional tasks that are detailed in our privacy statement.
Does Incorta use any tracking technologies similar to cookies?
In addition to the aforementioned uses, Incorta may also use web beacons (including conversion pixels) or other technologies on our websites, in marketing e-mails, our newsletter, and linked websites to track link clicks and message opens. Although web beacons don’t store data on your device, they could be used in conjunction with cookies to track website activity. Web beacons and other comparable technologies are covered in the information provided below regarding cookies. Conversion pixels are tiny pieces of code that are placed on a certain web page and activated when a user views it, increasing the number of conversions.
At times you may be required or asked to watch a video that is provided by Incorta. Our videos are supported by a tracking tool called Wistia that help us to understand the analytics of our videos. The analytics that are pulled from include the overall play-rate, the percentage of the video that’s been viewed and CTA’s clicked. Heatmaps are then created that show us the most engaging parts of the video. Additionally, we use Wistia to provide us Engagement Graphs that provide us with trends like video rewatches, video drop-offs and other ineractions. Viewer based tracking is enabled with Wistia that helps us identify the people who are watching and engaging with our videos.
