USE OF COOKIES AND OTHER TECHNOLOGIES

We and our analytics and advertising providers use cookies and other technologies to collect information about your use of the Service. Cookies are small bits of information that are transferred to and stored in separate files within your computer’s browser.

  • Persistent cookies remain on the visitor’s computer after the browser has been closed until they are deleted by the visitor or they expire. For example, we use persistent cookies to remember a visitor when the visitor returns to our website after visiting another website. More information about how you can disable cookies is provided below.
  • Session cookies exist only during a visitor’s online session and disappear from the visitor’s computer when they close the browser software.

We and our analytics providers generally use the following types of cookies and other technologies. Please note that providers and their practices may change, so this list may not always be accurate or complete. In addition, not all of the technologies described below may be used with all of the Services.

  • Strictly Necessary. These help make a website usable by enabling basic functions like page navigation and access to secure areas of the website. A website cannot function properly without these cookies.
  • Preferences. Also known as functional cookies, these are used to recognize you when you use a Service and enable a website to remember information that changes the way the website behaves or looks.
  • Statistics. Also known as analytics or performance cookies, these are used to improve the Service and understand how you use and interact with the websites.

Ways to update your preferences and disable cookies

By accessing our websites, you have the option of giving your consent to the use of cookies other than Strictly Necessary cookies. You can access our cookie preference tool for this website and update your preferences regarding the use of cookies here. Different websisites operated by Kaival may use different types of cookies, so you should access the cookie preference tool for each Kaival website you visit for more information.

In addition, you can still disable cookies in your web browser. In order to facilitate the way of managing cookies, below are links to some pages dedicated to specific browsers:

Users can also set their browsers in a way so that they have to accept cookies each time. Then, the browser will ask the user for permission each time before granting access to the cookie. This gives the user control over what is stored on the user’s device, however, it has the disadvantage that it slows down the ability to navigate the Service.

If you access the Service from a different device, login under a different name, or change web browsers, you will need to opt-out again.

If you have created an account with the Service, you can update or delete certain Account Information by logging in to your account.

California: If you are a California resident, the California Consumer Privacy Act of 2018 (“CCPA”) provides you with certain rights with respect to your personal information. Click here to review our California Privacy Notice.

Nevada: Nevada residents have a right to submit a verified request directing a website operator to not make any “sale” of covered information collected about a consumer for monetary consideration to a person for such person to license or sell the information to additional persons, subject to certain exceptions. We do not engage in the “sale” of covered information, as that term is defined.

European Union: If you are a resident of the EEA, the General Data Protection Regulation (EU) 2016/679 (“GDPR”) provides you with certain rights with respect to your personal information. Click here to review our Notice for Residents of the EEA.
