At Heathgate Search, we believe in being clear and open about how we collect and use data related to you.
This Cookie Policy applies to any Heathgate Search product or service that
links to this policy or incorporates it by reference. We use cookies and similar technologies
such as pixels, local storage and mobile ad IDs (collectively referred to in this policy as
“cookies”) to collect and use data as part of our Services, as defined in our privacy policy.
(“Services”).
What technologies are used?
Type of technology Description
Cookies
A cookie is a small file placed onto your device that enables Heathgate Search
features and functionality. Any browser visiting our sites may receive cookies
from us or cookies from third parties such as our customers, partners or
service providers. We or third parties may also place cookies in your browser
when you visit non-Heathgate Search sites that display ads or that host our
plugins or tags.
We use two types of cookies: persistent cookies and session cookies. A
persistent cookie lasts beyond the current session and is used for many
purposes, such as recognizing you as an existing user, so it’s easier to return
to Heathgate Search and interact with our Services without signing in again.
Since a persistent cookie stays in your browser, it will be read by Heathgate
Search when you return to one of our sites or visit a third party site that uses
our Services. Session cookies last only as long as the session (usually the
current visit to a website or a browser session).
Pixels
A pixel is a tiny image that may be embedded within web pages and emails,
requiring a call (which provides device and visit information) to our servers in
order for the pixel to be rendered in those web pages and emails. We use
pixels to learn more about your interactions with email content or web
content, such as whether you interacted with ads or posts. Pixels can also
enable us and third parties to place cookies on your browser.
Local storage
Local storage enables a website or application to store information locally on
your device(s). Local storage may be used to improve the Heathgate Search
experience, for example, by enabling features, remembering your preferences
and speeding up site functionality.
Other similar
technologies

tags for similar purposes as described in this Cookie Policy. Purpose Description

Personalised Advertising
Cookies help us show you relevant advertising, both on and off our Services and
measure the performance of such ads and report on it. We use cookies to learn
whether content has been shown to you or whether someone who was presented
with an ad later came back and took an action (e.g., downloaded a white paper
or made a purchase) on another site. Similarly, our partners or service providers
may use cookies to determine whether we’ve shown an ad or a post and how it
performed or provide us with information about how you interact with ads.

Heathgate Search, such as after you’ve visited a customer’s or partner’s site or
