Cookies are small text files that are sent to or accessed from your web browser or your computer's hard drive. A cookie typically contains the name of the domain (internet location) from which the cookie originated, the 'lifetime' of the cookie (i.e., when it expires) and a randomly generated unique number or similar identifier. A cookie also may contain information about your computer, such as user settings, browsing history and activities conducted while using www.acronis.com and related Acronis websites ('Sites').
Cookies set by Acronis International GmbH and its affiliates (together, 'Acronis') are called 'first party cookies'. Cookies set by other parties are called 'third-party cookies'. Third- party cookies enable Acronis to provide third-party features or functionality on or through the Sites (such as interactive content and analytics). Third-party cookies recognize your browser when it visits the Sites and also when it visits certain other websites and services.
Cookies also are typically categorized as 'session' cookies or 'persistent' cookies. Session cookies are erased when you close your web browser. For example, a session cookie tracks how you navigate through the Sites so that you do not need to re-enter the same information during the same visit to the Sites. Persistent cookies store your preferences and other information for your current and future visits – they are still stored in your browser even if you close it. For example, Acronis may use persistent cookies to record your choice of language and country.
Acronis also uses other types of data collection technology, such as web beacons (also called pixel tags or clear GIFs). A web beacon is a piece of computer code that enables Acronis to monitor user activity and website traffic.
