Cookie Policy
Last Updated: November 15, 2023
This Cookie Policy explains how Kikami Vijeju uses cookies and similar technologies to recognize you when you visit our website. It explains what these technologies are and why we use them, as well as your rights to control our use of them.
What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small data files that are placed on your computer or mobile device when you visit a website. Cookies are widely used by website owners to make their websites work, or to work more efficiently, as well as to provide reporting information.
Cookies set by the website owner are called "first party cookies". Cookies set by parties other than the website owner are called "third party cookies". Third party cookies enable third party features or functionality to be provided on or through the website.
Why Do We Use Cookies?
We use first party and third party cookies for several reasons. Some cookies are required for technical reasons in order for our website to operate, and we refer to these as "essential" or "strictly necessary" cookies. Other cookies enable us to track and target the interests of our users to enhance the experience on our website.
Types of Cookies We Use
Essential Website Cookies
These cookies are strictly necessary to provide you with services available through our website and to use some of its features, such as access to secure areas.
Performance and Functionality Cookies
These cookies are used to enhance the performance and functionality of our website but are non-essential to their use. However, without these cookies, certain functionality may become unavailable.
Analytics and Customization Cookies
These cookies collect information that is used either in aggregate form to help us understand how our website is being used or how effective our marketing campaigns are, or to help us customize our website for you.
Advertising Cookies
These cookies are used to make advertising messages more relevant to you. They perform functions like preventing the same ad from continuously reappearing, ensuring that ads are properly displayed, and in some cases selecting advertisements that are based on your interests.
Social Networking Cookies
These cookies are used to enable you to share pages and content that you find interesting on our website through third party social networking and other websites. These cookies may also be used for advertising purposes.

How Can You Control Cookies?
You have the right to decide whether to accept or reject cookies. You can exercise your cookie preferences by modifying the settings in your web browser to refuse cookies or to notify you when a cookie is being set.
Browser Controls
Most web browsers allow you to control cookies through their settings preferences. However, if you limit the ability of websites to set cookies, you may worsen your overall user experience, as it will no longer be personalized to you. It may also stop you from saving customized settings like login information.
Third Party Cookies
For information about how third parties use cookies and how to opt out of their tracking, please visit the Network Advertising Initiative's opt-out page or Your Online Choices.
Website-Specific Controls
We provide a cookie consent tool that allows you to review and adjust your cookie preferences for our website. You can access this tool by clicking on the cookie icon in the bottom corner of our website.
Other Tracking Technologies
In addition to cookies, we may use other similar technologies such as web beacons, pixels, and local storage to collect information about your activities on our website.
Web Beacons
Web beacons are tiny graphics with a unique identifier that are used to track the online movements of web users. Unlike cookies, which are stored on a user's computer, web beacons are embedded invisibly on web pages.
Local Storage
We may use local storage (such as HTML5 storage) to store content information and preferences. Various browsers may offer their own management tools for removing HTML5 storage.
Do Not Track Signals
Some browsers have a "Do Not Track" feature that lets you tell websites that you do not want to have your online activities tracked. Our website does not currently respond to "Do Not Track" signals as there is no standard for how online services should respond to such signals.
Updates to This Cookie Policy
We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time to reflect changes in technology, legislation, or our data practices. We will notify you of any material changes by posting the new policy on our website with a new effective date.
