JamKazam Cookies
We use our own cookies to recognize you when you visit our website or use our apps. This means that you don’t have to log in each time you visit, and we can remember your preferences and settings. JamKazam cookie names are currently “_jamkazam_session”, “client_id”, and “remember_token”.
Third Party Cookies
In addition to our own cookies, we work with various reputable companies to help us analyze how the Platform is used, and to optimize our Website and Apps to deliver the best possible experience. The following companies help us achieve this through use of cookies:
Google Analytics and Google Web Optimizer
Google Analytics and Google Web Optimizer are services provided by Google, Inc. (“Google”). Google Analytics uses cookies to help us analyze how users use our website, our mobile site, our Apps, and any JamKazam widgets embedded on third party sites. Google Web Optimizer uses the same cookies to measure how different users respond to different content. Google will use this information for the purpose of evaluating your and other users’ use of our Platform, compiling reports for us on Platform activity and providing other services relating to Platform activity and Internet usage. Please note that Google only receives your truncated IP address. This is sufficient for Google to identify (approximately) the country from which you are visiting our sites or accessing our players, but is not sufficient to identify you, or your computer or mobile device, individually.
Google cookies are those beginning “__ut”.
You can find more information here, including a link to Google’s privacy policy.
Similar Technologies
In addition to cookies, we also use the following standard Internet technologies in connection with your use of the Platform:
Clear GIFs: We sometimes use “clear GIFs”, also known as “web bugs”, which are small image files that we embed into our email newsletters. These clear GIFs tell us whether you opened the newsletter, clicked on any of the content or forwarded the newsletter to someone else. This provides us with useful information regarding the effectiveness of our email newsletters, which we can use to ensure that we are delivering information that is relevant to our users.
Cookie Controls
You can use the settings within your browser to control the cookies that are set on your computer or mobile device. However, please be aware that cookies are important to many aspects for the Platform – if you set your browser to reject cookies, you may not be able to enjoy all of the features of the Platform. Also, please note that the Platform may not respond to “do not track” signals from browsers. Thus, your selection of the “do not track” option provided by your browser may not have any effect on our collection of cookie information for analytic and internal purposes.
