Viva Nation TV Cookie Policy
Viva Nation TV uses cookies, web beacons, and other technologies for a variety of purposes — to remember your preferences, provide services (including product and site functionality), analyze our performance, enhance and personalize your experience, and provide marketing communications.
By using any of our websites, you accept their use of cookies, web beacons, and other such technologies in accordance with this Notice and the Viva Nation TV Privacy Policy. In particular, you accept the use of Operational, Analytical/ Customization, and Advertising cookies as described below.
If you do not wish to accept the use of cookies please disable them by following the instructions in this Notice, visiting the Cookie Consent Manager, or changing your browser settings so that cookies cannot be placed on your computer or mobile device. Disabling certain cookies (i.e., Operational Cookies) may render the website inaccessible in whole, or in part.
What are cookies?
Cookies are text files containing small amounts of information which are automatically downloaded to your computer or device when you visit a website. Cookies send data back to the originating website on each subsequent visit, or shares data with another website that recognizes that cookie.
Cookies are useful because they allow a website to recognize a user’s device. They do lots of different jobs, like letting you navigate between pages efficiently, remembering your preferences, and generally improving your experience as a user. They can also help to ensure that the advertisements you see online are more relevant to you and your interests.
For further information on cookies, including how to see what cookies have been set on your device and how to manage and delete them, visit http://www.allaboutcookies.org.
Types of cookies we use
There are three different types of cookies we use:
- Operational cookies. These are cookies that are required for the operation of our websites (e.g., to enable you to log-in to secure areas of our websites or use a shopping cart). These cookies are necessary for the website to operate properly.
- Insight/Personalization cookies. These cookies collect information about how visitors use and interact with a website, for instance which pages they go to most often. These cookies also enable us to personalize content, greet you by name, and remember your preferences (e.g., your choice of language, country, or region). These cookies help us improve the way our websites work and provide a better, personalized user experience.
- Advertising cookies. These cookies record your visit to our websites, the pages you have visited, and the links you have clicked. They gather information about your browsing habits and remember that you have visited a website. We (and third parties) may use this information to make our websites, content, and advertisements displayed on them more relevant to your interests.
- To find out more about interest-based ads and your choices, visit these sites: Digital Advertising Alliance, the Network Advertising Initiative, and the Interactive Advertising Bureau (IAB) Europe.
Some of the cookies we commonly use are listed in the following chart. This list is not exhaustive, but it is intended to illustrate primary reasons for certain types of cookies set by Viva Nation TV and third parties on our websites. Third parties (such as Google) may also set certain cookies on your device when you visit Viva Nation TV websites. In some cases, the third party has been hired to provide certain services on Viva Nation TV’s behalf (e.g., website analytics). In other cases, our websites contain ads from third parties or ads delivered by other ad networks. When your browser connects to those third parties’ web servers to retrieve content, those third parties may set and use their own cookies on your device.
How long do cookies stay on my device?
Some cookies operate from the time you visit a Viva Nation TV website to the end of that particular web-browsing session. These cookies expire and are automatically deleted when you close your internet browser. These cookies are called “session” cookies.
Some cookies will stay on your device between browsing sessions — they do not expire when you close your browser. These cookies are called “persistent” cookies. The length of time a persistent cookie stays on your device varies from cookie to cookie.
How to control which cookies are set
There are a number of ways you can manage what Insight/Personalization and Advertising cookies are set on you devices. Operational cookies, however, cannot be disabled. If you do not allow certain cookies to be installed, the website may not be accessible to you and/or the performance, features, or services of the website may be compromised.
