YourGreenBook LLC ("YourGreenBook", "we", "us" or "our") understand that your privacy is important to you and are committed to being transparent about the technologies we use. We use cookies and similar technologies (collectively "cookies") for a wide range of purposes on our websites.

This Cookie Policy (the "Policy") applies to websites related to YourGreenBook (www.yourgreenbook.com) and will inform you what cookies are, what cookies are used by us, our partners and/or third parties (if any), why we use cookies, how we use cookies, and how you can manage cookies or realize your relevant rights. This Policy constitutes a part of our Privacy Policy, and you may refer to our Privacy Policy for any matters not covered by this Policy.

1. What are "cookies and other similar technologies"?

Cookie is a text file containing small amounts of information which is automatically downloaded to your computer or device when you visit a website. It is created when your browser loads a website. The website sends information to the browser which creates a text file. Each time you are visiting a website, the browser retrieves this file and sends it to the website's server.

Cookie is useful because it allows a website to recognize a user's device over time. It can be used for lots of purposes, such as responding to your actions, remembering your preferences, personalizing your online experience, and generally improving the user experience. It can also help to ensure that the advertisements you see online are more relevant to you and your interests. The cookie itself does not, in most cases, identify you.

We may use both session cookies and persistent cookies. A session cookie is a cookie that is automatically deleted when the user closes their browser, while a persistent cookie is a cookie that remains stored in the user's terminal device until it reaches a defined expiration date (which can be minutes, days or several years in the future). We may use both first-party cookies and third-party cookies as well. A first-party cookie is set by us operating the website visited by the user, while a third-party cookie is set by data controllers that do not operate the website currently visited by the user.

Other Similar Technologies

In addition to Cookie, we also use other similar technologies, such as Pixel (web beacon).

Pixel (also known as web beacon, tag) is a small hidden image file of 1 x 1 pixel embedded in a specific web page or email. Pixels can be used to collect information related to your visit to the web page or record the fact that you have opened a certain email. When you open a web page or email with an embedded Pixel, the web page or email will automatically run simple code to download the image file to your browser or device. At the same time, the code will also transmit specific information related to your device and actions to the website, or transmit the fact that you have opened the email to the website server. It can record your interest in the website or email and is used for analysis or advertising purposes.
