Cookies and similar technologies

Telecom Infra Project and our third-party providers set and use cookies and similar technologies to store and manage user preferences, deliver targeted advertising, enable content, and gather analytic and usage data, for example. The use of cookies and other tracking technologies is standard across websites and apps through which information is collected about your online activities across applications, websites, or other services. More information about how we use cookies and similar technologies and how you can control and manage them is below.

What is a cookie?

A cookie is a small text file that is placed on a computer or other device and is used to identify the user or device and to collect information. Cookies are typically assigned to one of four categories, depending on their function and intended purpose: strictly necessary cookies, performance cookies, functional cookies, and cookies for marketing purposes.

Types of cookies and why we use them

  • Strictly necessary cookies. The strictly necessary cookies allow you to navigate our site, login, display the correct content for the device you are using, and verify your details when you request TIP materials.

  • Analytical/performance cookies. These cookies are used to track visits to our site and help us measure traffic sources to improve performance. All information collected is anonymized.

  • Functionality cookies. These cookies allow the website to remember choices you make (such as your username or ID, language preference, or the area or region you are in) and provide enhanced, more personal features. They may also be used to provide services you have asked for, such as watching a video or commenting on a blog. The information these cookies collect may be anonymized, and they cannot track your browsing activity on other websites.
  • Targeting and advertising cookies. These cookies are set through our advertising partners and are used to help present you with relevant advertising. No personal information is collected, they instead rely on the cookies to identify your internet device and browser details. By disabling these cookies, you will not receive less advertising, just that the advertising you receive will be less targeted to your preferences.
