This Cookie Notice explains how we use “cookies” and similar technologies (such as “web beacons,” “pixels” or “tags”) on the GK8 by Galaxy website at www.gk8.io and its subdomains (“Site”), or in our marketing emails (“Service”). It is designed to assist you in making informed decisions when using our Service.

Please take a moment to read and understand this Cookie Notice. This Cookie Notice should also be read in conjunction with our Privacy Notice and Terms and Conditions. We may update our Cookie Notice from time to time.

WHAT ARE COOKIES AND HOW DO WE USE THEM?

Cookies are very small text files or pieces of code, which often include a unique identifier, and may be used to remember information about you when you visit a site, such as your language preference or login information.

We use cookies on our Site to tell us, in general terms, how and when pages on our Site are visited, what our users’ technology preferences are – such as what type of video player they use – and whether our Site is functioning properly.

Emails you receive from us may also contain pixels to help us see if recipients have opened an email and understand how recipients have interacted with it.

If an email we send you includes images, pixels may be deployed on your computer or mobile device automatically when you open that email. Cookies may also be set if you click on any link within the email.

HOW LONG DO COOKIES REMAIN ACTIVE?

Session cookies – These cookies only last as long as your online session and expire when you close your browser (e.g., Chrome or Safari).

Persistent cookies – These cookies stay on your device after your browser has been closed and last for a time specified in the cookie [(but not longer than 12 months)]. We use these cookies when we need to remember you for more than one browsing session, for instance to remember your preferences from one visit to the next.
