Cookies and tracking technologies:
We may use cookies and other tracking technologies on our Website and Web-Stor to collect information about your use of our platforms, such as your browser type, device type, pages visited, and time spent there. We use this information to improve our Website, Web-Stor application and services and to personalize your experience.
A cookie is a text file that is placed on your hard disk by a web page server. Cookies cannot be used to run programs or deliver viruses to your computer. Cookies are uniquely assigned to you, and can only be read by a web server in the domain that issued the cookie to you.
One of the primary purposes of cookies is to provide a convenience feature to save you time. The purpose of a cookie is to tell the Web server that you have returned to a specific page. For example, if you personalize Kissinger pages, or register with Kissinger site or services, a cookie helps Kissinger to recall your specific information on subsequent visits. This simplifies the process of recording your personal information, such as billing addresses, shipping addresses, and so on. When you return to the same Kissinger website, the information you previously provided can be retrieved, so you can easily use the Kissinger features that you customized.
You have the ability to accept or decline cookies. Most Web browsers automatically accept cookies, but you can usually modify your browser setting to decline cookies if you prefer. If you choose to decline cookies, you may not be able to fully experience the interactive features of the Kissinger services or websites you visit.
