What is a cookie?

A "cookie" is technology that allows IoTConnect.io to store tokens of information (an 'identifier') in your browser used only by IoTConnect.io while you are on the website. Cookies are not used to determine the personal identity of anyone who is merely visiting IoTConnect.io. They serve to help us track traffic patterns to determine a user’s preferred location and language so that we can direct them to the correct home page when they visit IoTConnect.io.

Cookies have other uses as well. For example, in the webinar section, they are used to provide entry for subscribers who have chosen the automatic log-on feature during registration. Cookies are also used to prevent online poll participants from voting more than once.

On certain pages of IoTConnect.io, cookies are used to help us track your interests while you browse the internet, so we can tailor more relevant content to you, and to understand what is important to you.

How do I disable cookies?

If you do not want to receive a cookie from IoTConnect.io, you have the option of setting your browser to notify you when you receive a cookie, so that you may determine whether to accept it or not. However, please be aware that if you do turn off 'cookies' in your browser, you will not be able to fully experience some of IoTConnect.io.
