This Policy describes how and why the Women’s White Collar Defense Association (“WWCDA”) (“we”, “us” or “our”) uses cookies on this website: https://www.wwcda.org/.
What are Cookies
A cookie is a small piece of data (sometimes encrypted text file) that a website or app – when visited by a user – asks your browser to store on your device in order to remember information about you, such as your last visit to our website. Those cookies are set by us and are called first party cookies.
We also use third party cookies – these are cookies set by a domain different than the domain of the website you are visiting or a domain we are not operating – for example to analyze traffic to our website.
To find out more about cookies, including how to see what cookies have been set and how to manage and delete them, please visit www.allaboutcookies.org.
How we use Cookies
Our website uses two types of cookies: persistent and session cookies. Persistent cookies are cookies that remain on your device for a certain period of time (as indicated in the table below) or until you manually delete them or object to them. Session cookies are cookies that expire at the end of the browser session (e.g., when you leave our website and close your browser).
We use strictly necessary cookies to (i) recognize you as a return user to our website, (ii) secure our website, app and service and to (iii) record your cookie preferences so you are not presented with our banner several times.
We use non-essential (i.e., non-strictly necessary) cookies to observe and analyze traffic levels and other metrics regarding your usage of the communities on our website, which helps us improve our website and services, as well as your overall user experience. In some jurisdictions, we will obtain your consent to use non-essential cookies (see below). Some of these cookies may be managed by third parties and you should refer to the third parties’ own website privacy notifications and policies for further information.
As explained above, cookies may be first party or third party, meaning they are operated by us (first party) or by another party (third party). Please note that interactions with the third party cookies on our website are governed by the privacy and cookie policies of the third party.
Further information on the types of cookies we use is set out below.
