This Cookie Policy explains how Skedda Pty Ltd and its affiliates use cookies and similar technologies on our websites ("Websites", including www.skedda.com, any successor URLs, mobile or localized versions and related domains and subdomains). It explains what these technologies are and why we use them, as well as your rights to control our use of them.

Cookies are small data files that are placed on your computer or mobile device when you visit a website, mobile app or use an online platform. Cookies are widely used by online service providers to facilitate and help to make the interaction between users and websites, mobile apps and online platforms faster and easier, as well as to provide reporting information. 

Cookies set by the website and/or mobile app and/or platform owner (in this case, Skedda) are called "first party cookies". Cookies set by parties other than the website and/or mobile app and/or platform owner are called "third party cookies". Third party cookies enable third party features or functionality to be provided on or through the website and/or mobile app and/or platform (e.g. like advertising, interactive content and analytics). The parties that set these third party cookies can recognize your computer or device both when it visits the website and/or mobile app and/or platform in question and also when it visits certain other websites and/or mobile apps and/or platforms.

We use first party and third party cookies for several reasons. Some cookies are required for technical reasons in order for our Websites to operate correctly and securely, and we refer to these as "essential" or "strictly necessary" cookies. Other cookies also enable us to track and target the interests of our users to enhance the experience on our Website. Third parties serve cookies through our Websites for analytics and other purposes. This is described in more detail below.

Cookies are not the only way to recognize or track visitors to a website. We may use other, similar technologies from time to time, like web beacons (sometimes called "tracking pixels" or "clear gifs"). These are tiny graphics files that contain a unique identifier that enable us to recognize when someone has visited our Websites. In many instances, these technologies are reliant on cookies to function properly, and so declining cookies will impair their functioning.

We do not currently use these technologies.

We do not currently serve/display/show any advertising on our Websites (however we may advertise for our Websites on other sites).

You have the right to decide whether to accept or reject cookies. You can set or amend your web browser controls to accept or refuse cookies. You can also choose to use a service like Network Advertising Initiative Opt-Out that allows you to opt out of receiving targeted ads from one, some, or all member companies participating in this initiative. If you choose to reject or opt-out of cookies, you may still use our Websites though your access to some functionality and areas may be restricted. As the means by which you can refuse cookies through your web browser controls vary from browser-to-browser, you should visit your browser's help menu for more information.

We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time in order to reflect, for example, changes to the cookies we use or for other operational, legal or regulatory reasons. Please therefore re-visit this Cookie Policy regularly to stay informed about our use of cookies and related technologies.
