This Cookie Policy explains what cookies are, which cookies are used on Region IV (https://iccregion4.org/), and what they do. We want you to understand what information is collected while you browse our website so that you can decide for yourself which cookies you are comfortable with. This policy is part of our privacy statement, which you can read in full in our Privacy Policy.
Cookies
A cookie is a small, simple text file that is sent with the pages of this website and stored by your browser on the hard drive of your computer, tablet or phone. The information stored in a cookie can be sent back to our servers, or to the servers of the relevant third parties, on a later visit.
Alongside cookies, this website may use similar technologies such as local storage, session storage and pixels (small, invisible images). These technologies are used for the same purposes as cookies, and consent works the same way for all of them.
Cookie Categories
Functional Cookies
Functional cookies are necessary for the website to work. They make it possible to move around the website, keep a form you have filled in, keep you signed in and protect the site against abuse. These cookies do not track you for advertising purposes and cannot be switched off, because without them the website would not function.
Preference Cookies
Preference cookies let the website remember choices you have made, such as your language, your region, or the way you like content displayed. They make your next visit more comfortable, but the website will still work without them.
Statistics Cookies
Statistics cookies help us understand how visitors use our website. They tell us which pages are read most often, how people arrived at the site and where they run into trouble. We use this information, in aggregate, to improve our content and navigation. Statistics cookies are only placed with your permission.
Marketing Cookies
Marketing cookies are set by us or by our partners to build a profile of your interests and show you relevant content and advertising, on this website and elsewhere. They also power some embedded content, such as videos and social media posts. Marketing cookies are only placed with your permission.
