Cookie Policy

What are cookies?

A cookie is a small text file that a website stores on your computer or mobile device when you visit the site.

  • First-party cookies are cookies set by the website you're visiting. Only that website can read them. In addition, a website might potentially use external services, which also set their own cookies, known as third-party cookies.
  • Persistent cookies are cookies saved on your computer and are not deleted automatically when you quit your browser, unlike a session cookie, which is deleted when you quit your browser.

Their purpose is to enable the site to remember your preferences (such as username, cookie preferences, etc.) for a certain period of time. Cookies can also be used to establish anonymized statistics about the browsing experience on our sites.

How do we use cookies?

RECONYX websites mostly use first-party cookies. These cookies are set and controlled by RECONYX, not an external organization. However, some of our pages utilize third-party cookies (such as YouTube).

The three types of first-party cookies we use are to:

  • Store visitor preferences.
  • Make our websites operational.
  • Gather analytics data (about user behavior).

Visitor Preference Cookies

These are set by us and only we can read them. They remember:

  • If you have agreed to (or refused) this site's cookie policy

Operational cookies

There are cookies that must be included for certain web pages to function. For this reason, they do not require your consent. In particular:

  • Authentication cookies are stored when you log in to a RECONYX site. When you do this, you accept the associated privacy policy.
  • Technical cookies are used by RECONYX to make the web site operational, such as remembering what is added to your cart.

Analytics cookies

We use these purely for internal research on how we can improve the service we provide to all our users. These cookies assess how you interact with our website - as an anonymous user (the data gathered does not identify you personally). You are free to refuse these types of cookies - either via the cookie banner or by updating your cookie preferences here:

Third-Party Cookies

Some of our pages display content from external providers, e.g., YouTube, Facebook, and Twitter. These third-party cookie policies are outside of the control of RECONYX. Providers may, at any time, change their terms of service, purpose, use of cookies, etc.
