Cookie Statement

This Cookie Statement explains how Near Conferences and our
third-party partners use cookies and similar technologies (“Cookies”)
on our websites, including services provided on those websites
(referred to collectively as “Websites”).

Near Conferences uses Cookies to enable
basic functionality, analyze trends, understand when and how you
visit and interact with Near Conferences’ Websites, gather
information about your device and settings, and enable third-party
advertising on our Websites and other websites through our partners.
Depending on your jurisdiction, we ask for your prior consent for
different types of Cookies or allow you to opt-out.

What are Cookies and How Does Near
Conferences Use Them?

Cookies are small text, image, data
files, or tag code snippets placed on your device by websites that
you visit or access. They are widely used to make websites work and
function with greater efficiency and ease, provide customization and
enhance website performance. Some Cookies stay on your device only
for the duration of your web session and expire when you exit your
browser; other Cookies remain longer than your web session, including
after you exit your browser, for example, to remember you when you
return to the website.

The table below explains the categories
of Cookies that Near Conferences and our third-party partners use on
our Websites and why. Depending on your jurisdiction, we ask for
your permission before we set certain cookies, and you can always
prevent Near Conferences from setting cookies that are not necessary
for the performance of the Near Conferences service. Once you select
your cookies, Near Conferences stores a “preference” cookie on
your device for at least six (6) months to prevent repeatedly asking
you to set your cookie preferences. More detailed information about
the specific Cookies used, and how you can control them, can be found
by visiting our Cookie management tool at the footer of the page.

Cookie

Type

Purpose

Strictly Necessary Cookies

Core

These Cookies are required to enable basic Website functionality, such as providing a secure login and remembering your progress through an order. For example, when you sign in to a Website using your Near Conferences account, we store the time you signed in and a unique ID number in an encrypted Cookie on your device. This Cookie allows you to move from page to page within the Website without signing in again on each page.

Technical Performance

Near Conferences uses these Cookies for, among other things, detection of browsing issues, optimization of technical performance and ergonomics, estimation of the required server power, the proper presentation of the Website and load balancing as strictly necessary to ensure that our Websites remain up and operating.

Necessary Settings

Near Conferences uses these Cookies to record a user’s settings, such as language, currency, timezone, browser, device (such as a camera), and multimedia player settings, that are strictly necessary to enable our Websites to operate properly. For example, Near Conferences records the user’s timezone setting so that the meeting times on their calendar and calendar invites are correctly applied for them and their invitees.

Functional Cookies

Enhanced Functionality and Customization

These Cookies are not core to the service provided or the purpose of the web page visited. Functional Cookies enable the Website to provide enhanced functionality and customization, such as showing you video clips with support explanations or remembering a user’s preferences.

These Cookies may be set by us or by third party providers whose services we have added to our pages. If you do not allow these Cookies then some or all of these services may not function properly. For example, we embed videos from Near Conferences’s YouTube channel using YouTube’s privacy-enhanced mode to show you content. YouTube may also set additional cookies on your device once you click on the YouTube video player. If you opt out of Functional Cookies, we will not be able to provide you with these additional functions.

Performance Cookies

Analytics

To provide and improve the performance of our Websites and products, Near Conferences uses Cookies to gather usage and performance data. For example, we use Cookies to count the number of unique visitors to a Website or to our blog and to develop other statistics about the operations of our Websites. This includes Cookies from Near Conferences and from third-party analytics providers, who help Near Conferences understand how people are using and interacting with Near Conferences’s Websites.

Targeting

Advertising

Near Conferences and Near Conferences’s advertising partners may set Cookies on Near Conferences’s Websites that collect data about how you interact with Near Conferences’s Website so that they can provide advertising for Near Conferences on other websites and apps. Near Conferences’s advertising partners also may set Cookies to show you third-party advertising (including personalized advertising) on Near Conferences’s products. Depending on your jurisdiction, the default setting for cookies differs. We ask you for your prior consent or enable you to opt-out of having your information shared with third-party advertisers or from receiving personalized advertising from our third-party partners. Users who withdraw their consent or opt-out of third-party advertising Cookies won’t receive third-party personalized advertising on Near Conferences’s Websites or in our products.

Social Media Cookies

Some of our Websites include Cookies provided by social media companies so that you can easily share Near Conferences content on social media if you are logged into your social media account. Social media companies will not be able to determine whether you are already logged into a given social media account if you turn off Targeting Cookies, so you may not be able to share Near Conferences content on your social media account.

 In instances where Near Conferences engages a third-party to deploy Strictly Necessary Cookies, Near Conferences only engages parties that have signed a processor agreement with Near Conferences in which any processing beyond or outside of Near Conferences’ instruction is explicitly prohibited, including by the third parties’ sub processors. Some Strictly Necessary Cookies may transfer personal data to Saudi Arabia.

How to Control Cookies

Except for Strictly Necessary Cookies, you can accept or decline categories or individual cookies at any time by visiting our Cookie management tool at the footer of this webpage.

You can also control Cookies by adjusting the settings within your internet browser. Most web browsers automatically accept Cookies but all browsers provide controls that allow you to block or delete them. For example, in most modern browsers, you can block or delete Cookies by clicking Settings > Privacy > Cookies. Instructions for blocking or deleting Cookies in other browsers may be available in each browser’s privacy or help documentation. To find out more about Cookies, including how to see what Cookies have been set and how to manage and delete them, visit www.aboutcookies.org.

Certain features of Near Conferences’ Websites depend on Cookies. Please be aware that if you choose to block certain Cookies, you may not be able to sign in or use those features, and preferences that are dependent on Cookies may be lost. If you choose to delete Cookies, settings and preferences controlled by those Cookies, including advertising preferences, will be deleted and may need to be recreated.

Do Not Track

Some web browsers have a “Do Not Track” feature. This feature lets you tell websites you visit that you do not want to have your online activity tracked. These features are not yet uniform across browsers. Our Websites are not currently set up to respond to those signals.
