Cookie Policy

Effective Date: January 1, 2024

This Cookie Policy explains how Besa Security (“we,” “us,” or “our”) uses cookies and similar tracking technologies when you visit https://besasecurity.com/ (the “Site”). This policy provides you with clear information about what cookies are, how we use them, and your choices regarding cookies.

1. What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files that are placed on your device (computer, smartphone, tablet, etc.) when you visit a website. Cookies are widely used by website owners to make their websites work more efficiently and to provide reporting information.

Cookies set by the website owner (in this case, Besa Security) are called “first-party cookies.” Cookies set by parties other than the website owner are called “third-party cookies.” Third-party cookies enable features or functionality to be provided on or through the website (such as advertising, interactive content, and analytics).

2. Why Do We Use Cookies?

We use cookies and similar tracking technologies for several reasons:

• Essential Cookies: Some cookies are essential for the operation of our Site. These cookies enable core functionality such as security, network management, and accessibility.
• Functionality Cookies: These cookies allow us to remember choices you make when you use our Site, such as your login details, language preferences, and customization settings.
• Performance and Analytics Cookies: These cookies help us understand how visitors interact with our Site by collecting and reporting information anonymously. This helps us improve the Site’s performance.
• Advertising and Marketing Cookies: These cookies are used to make advertising messages more relevant to you. They perform functions like preventing the same ad from continuously reappearing and displaying ads that are relevant to your interests.

3. Types of Cookies We Use

3.1 Strictly Necessary Cookies

These cookies are necessary for the Site to function and cannot be switched off in our systems. They are usually only set in response to actions made by you which amount to a request for services, such as setting your privacy preferences, logging in, or filling in forms.

Without these cookies, some services you have asked for cannot be provided. You can set your browser to block or alert you about these cookies, but some parts of the Site will not work.

3.2 Performance Cookies

These cookies allow us to count visits and traffic sources so we can measure and improve the performance of our Site. They help us know which pages are the most and least popular and see how visitors move around the Site.

All information these cookies collect is aggregated and therefore anonymous. If you do not allow these cookies, we will not know when you have visited our Site and will not be able to monitor its performance.

3.3 Functional Cookies

These cookies enable the Site to provide enhanced functionality and personalization. They may be set by us or by third-party providers whose services we have added to our pages.

If you do not allow these cookies, some or all of these services may not function properly.

3.4 Targeting/Advertising Cookies

These cookies may be set through our Site by our advertising partners. They may be used by those companies to build a profile of your interests and show you relevant advertisements on other sites.

They do not store directly personal information but are based on uniquely identifying your browser and internet device. If you do not allow these cookies, you will experience less targeted advertising.

4. Third-Party Cookies

We may use third-party services that place cookies on your device. These third parties may include:

• Analytics Providers: Such as Google Analytics, to help us analyze how users interact with our Site
• Advertising Networks: To deliver targeted advertisements based on your browsing history
• Social Media Platforms: To enable social sharing functionality
• Payment Processors: To process transactions securely

These third parties may have their own privacy policies governing their use of information that you should review.

5. How Long Do Cookies Last?

Cookies can be either “session cookies” or “persistent cookies”:

• Session Cookies: These cookies are temporary and are deleted when you close your browser. They allow websites to link your actions during a browser session.
• Persistent Cookies: These cookies remain on your device for a set period specified in the cookie or until you manually delete them. They are used to remember your preferences and choices when you return to the Site.

6. Your Cookie Choices

6.1 Browser Settings

Most web browsers allow you to control cookies through their settings preferences. However, if you limit the ability of websites to set cookies, you may worsen your overall user experience, since it will no longer be personalized to you. It may also prevent you from saving customized settings like login information.

6.2 Disabling Cookies

You can configure your browser to accept all cookies, reject all cookies, or notify you when a cookie is set. Each browser is different, so check your browser’s “Help” menu to learn how to change your cookie preferences.

Please note that if you disable or refuse cookies, some parts of the Site may become inaccessible or not function properly.

6.3 Opt-Out Options

You can opt out of targeted advertising by visiting the following sites:

• Digital Advertising Alliance (DAA): www.aboutads.info/choices
• Network Advertising Initiative (NAI): www.networkadvertising.org/choices
• European Interactive Digital Advertising Alliance (EDAA): www.youronlinechoices.eu

6.4 Google Analytics

To opt out of Google Analytics tracking, you can install the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on available at tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout.

7. Mobile Device Identifiers

When you use our mobile applications, we may use mobile device identifiers and similar technologies to track your usage. You can control this through your device settings:

• iOS: Go to Settings > Privacy > Advertising and enable “Limit Ad Tracking”
• Android: Go to Settings > Google > Ads and enable “Opt out of Ads Personalization”

8. Do Not Track Signals

Some browsers include a “Do Not Track” (DNT) feature that signals to websites you visit that you do not want to have your online activity tracked. Currently, there is no universal standard for recognizing and implementing DNT signals. Our Site does not currently respond to DNT signals.

9. Changes to This Cookie Policy

We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices or for other operational, legal, or regulatory reasons. We will notify you of any material changes by posting the new Cookie Policy on this page with an updated effective date.
