Cookie Policy
EFFECTIVE: NOVEMBER 4TH, 2022
Cookie Policy defines what cookies are for Nitro and how they are used on our website(s). Nitro’s website(s) uses cookies and similar technologies for operation.
What are cookies?
Cookies are small data files stored on the hard drive of your computer or mobile device by our website. By using such cookies we understand for example how often and in which way our website is visited. They also make certain features of our website function properly. For more specific information on what cookies are and how they work, please refer to www.allaboutcookies.org
We use two broad categories of cookies: (1) first party cookies, served directly by us to your computer or mobile device, which are used only by us to recognize your computer or mobile device when it revisits our Services; and (2) third party cookies, which are served by service providers on our Services, and can be used by such service providers to recognize your computer or mobile device when it visits other websites.
How to manage cookies?
Nitro requests you – when visiting our website – consent to which cookies we can use. Your specific consent will be saved when you submit your preferences via the cookie banner popping-up on your screen and when confirming the setting via the button ‘Cookie Settings‘. In case you agree to all cookies, please select ‘Accept all cookies‘.
You are entirely free to choose which category of cookies we can place. Your choice will have no impact on the access to our website, but might impact the way our website functions or is presented to you. As necessary cookies are essential for our website to function properly, this specific category of cookies is the only category of cookies you cannot decline. All other types of cookies will only be used if you have given us your specific consent.
If you want to adjust your preferences related to the cookies being used, you can configure your browser settings. For the most commonly-used browsers, we refer to the links below on how to assist with your browser configuration. Editing your cookie preferences for our specific website is possible via this link.
Editing your cookie preferences for our specific site is possible via the COOKIE SETTINGS button below.
If you use multiple devices (e.g. computer, smartphone and/or tablet) to visit our website, please note you will have to configure your cookie preferences on each device separately. In case your device is used by multiple individuals, please take into account someone else might have changed the cookie settings you prefer. By using your (personal) user or browsing profile, including your personal cookie preferences, you can limit this risk.
What cookies are used for what purpose?
Our Services uses the following types of cookies for the purposes set out below:
Type of cookie | Purpose |
Essential Cookies | These cookies are essential to provide you with services available through our Services and to enable you to use some of its features. For example, they allow you to log in to secure areas of our Services and help the content of the pages you request load quickly. Without these cookies, the services that you have asked for cannot be provided, and we only use these cookies to provide you with those services. |
Functionality Cookies | These cookies allow our Services to remember choices you make when you use our Services, such as remembering your language preferences, remembering your login details and remembering the changes you make to other parts of our Services which you can customize. The purpose of these cookies is to provide you with a more personal experience and to avoid you having to re-enter your preferences every time you visit our Services. |
Analytics and Performance Cookies | These cookies are used to collect information about traffic to our Services and how users use our Services. The information gathered does not identify any individual visitor. The information is aggregated and therefore anonymous. It includes the number of visitors to our Services, the websites that referred them to our Services, the pages that they visited on our Services, what time of day they visited our Services, whether they have visited our Services before, and other similar information. We use this information to help operate our Services more efficiently, to gather broad demographic information and to monitor the level of activity on our Services. We use Google Analytics for this purpose. Google Analytics uses its own cookies. It is only used to improve how our Services works. You can find out more information about Google Analytics cookies here: https://developers.google.com/analytics/resources/concepts/gaConceptsCookies. You can find out more about how Google protects your data here www.google.com/analytics/learn/privacy.html. You can prevent the use of Google Analytics relating to your use of our Services by downloading and installing the browser plugin available via this link: |
Targeted and advertising cookies | These cookies track your browsing habits to enable us to show advertising which is more likely to be of interest to you. These cookies use information about your browsing history to group you with other users who have similar interests. Based on that information, and with our permission, third party advertisers can place cookies to enable them to show adverts which we think will be relevant to your interests while you are on third party websites. You can disable cookies which remember your browsing habits and target advertising at you by visiting http://www.youronlinechoices.com/. If you choose to remove targeted or advertising cookies, you will still see adverts, but they may not be relevant to you. Even if you do choose to remove cookies by the companies listed at the above link, not all companies that serve online behavioral advertising are included in this list, and so you may still receive some cookies and tailored adverts from companies that are not listed. |
Social Media Cookies | These cookies are used when you share information using a social media sharing button or “like” button on our Services or you link your account or engage with our content on or through a social networking website such as Facebook, Twitter or LinkedIn. The social network will record that you have done this. |
"Do not track" (DNT) signals from the phones or browsers supporting such functionality are controlled though the cookie banner.
How long cookies are being stored?
We may use both session cookies (which expire once you close your web browser) and persistent cookies (which stay on your computer or mobile device until you delete them) to provide you with a more personal and interactive experience on our Services.
What are similar technologies we are referring to
Pixel Tags
We may also use pixel tags (which are also known as web beacons and clear GIFs) on our Services to track the actions of users on our Services. Unlike cookies, which are stored on the hard drive of your computer or mobile device by a website, pixel tags are embedded invisibly on webpages. Pixel tags measure the success of our marketing campaigns and compile statistics about usage of the Services, so that we can manage our content more effectively. The information we collect using pixel tags is not linked to our users’ personal data.
Can other websites still show me advertising related to Nitro when I haven’t given consent for the marketing cookies on our website?
Yes, this is still a possibility. Third party websites or social media platforms of which you accepted cookies or similar technologies, might still show you advertising related to Nitro. These cookies are controlled by such third parties and/or social media platforms. This is why – in case you would not like to receive advertising related to Nitro – you might also have to edit your cookies preferences on the website (or your user profile) on such third party websites or social media platforms. How this works should be set out on the relevant third-party website or social media platform.
Your Ad Choices. Some of the third-party service providers and/or Advertisers may be members of the Network European Interactive Digital Advertising Alliance ("EDAA") Self-Regulatory Program for Online Behavioral Advertising.
