If you object to the use of targeting and behavioral advertising cookies please scroll down to: How can users manage or opt-out of cookies?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n 4. Other Third Party Cookies<\/p>\n\n\n\n You may notice on some pages of our websites that cookies have been set that are not related to SportsBeatsIndia. When you visit a page with content embedded from, for example, YouTube or Facebook, these third-party service providers may set their own cookies on your device. SportsBeatsIndia does not control the use of these third-party cookies and cannot access them due to the way that cookies work, as cookies can only be accessed by the party who originally set them. Please check the third-party websites for more information about these cookies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Some of our websites use Adobe Flash Player to deliver video and game content to users. Adobe utilizes its own cookies, which are not manageable through your browser settings but are used by the Flash Player for similar purposes, such as storing preferences or tracking users. Flash Cookies work in a different way to web browser cookies; rather than having individual cookies for particular jobs, a website is restricted to storing all data in one cookie. You can control how much data, if any, may be stored in that cookie but you cannot choose what type of information is allowed to be stored. You can manage which websites can store information in Flash cookies on your device via the website storage settings panel on the Adobe website.<\/p>\n\n\n\n We also include web beacons in our emails to track the success of our marketing campaigns. This means that if you open an email from us we can see which of the pages of our Website you have visited. Our web beacons do not store additional information on your device but, by communicating with our cookies on your device, they can tell us when you have opened our email.<\/p>\n\n\n\n If you object to the use of web beacons please scroll down to: How can users manage or opt-out of cookies?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n How can users manage or opt-out of cookies?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Some people find the idea of a website storing information on their device a little intrusive, in particular when the information is stored and used by a third party.

You can also change the preferences\/settings in your web browser to control cookies. Some internet browsers have a \u2018Do Not Track or \u2018DNT\u2019 setting; this sends a signal to websites asking them not to track your browsing. The following links may be helpful:<\/p>\n\n\n\n Cookie setting in Firefox<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n Cookie setting in Safari<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n Cookie setting in Internet Explorer<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n Cookie setting in Chrome<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n In some cases, you can choose to accept cookies from the primary site, but block them from third parties.

Functional cookies are essential to the running of our Services. They are used to remember your preferences on our websites and to provide enhanced, more personal features. The information collected by these cookies is usually anonymized, so we cannot identify you personally. Functional cookies do not track your internet usage or gather the information that could be used for selling advertising, but they do help with serving to advertise. These cookies are usually session cookies that will expire when you close your browsing session.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
These cookies are essential for the running of our Services. Without these cookies, parts of our websites would not function. These cookies do not track where you have been on the internet and do remember preferences beyond your current visit and do not gather information about you that could be used for marketing purposes.

Analytical performance cookies are used to monitor the performance of our Services, for example, to determine the number of page views and the number of unique users a website has. Web analytics services may be designed and operated by third parties. The information provided by these cookies allows us to analyze patterns of user behavior and we use that information to enhance user experience or identify areas of the website which may require maintenance. The information is anonymous (i.e. it cannot be used to identify you and does not contain personal information such as your name and email address) and it is only used for statistical purposes<\/p>\n\n\n\n
These cookies, which may be placed on your device by us or our trusted third-party service providers, remember that you have visited a website and use that information to provide you with content or advertising which is tailored to your interests. This is often called online behavioral advertising (OBA) and is done by grouping together shared interests based upon web browsing history. Your web browsing history can be used to infer things about you (e.g. your age, gender, etc.), and this information may also be used to make advertising on websites more relevant to you. Without these cookies, content, and advertisements you encounter may be less relevant to you and your interests. If you would like more information about OBA, including how to opt-out of these cookies, please visit: http:\/\/www.youronlinechoices.com\/<\/a> or scroll down to: How can users manage or opt-out of cookies?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
