This Cookie Policy describes how Verisure Group headquartered at Chemin Jean-Baptiste Vandelle 3A,1290 Versoix, Switzerland uses cookies and similar technologies to collect and store information when you visit our websites. This website may also install third-party cookies as explained in this Cookie Policy.
When you visit our websites, Verisure or an authorized third party may send you a cookie. Cookies are small text files that may be placed on your device, i.e., in your browser directory. When a website is accessed, a cookie that is placed on a device will send information to the party that has placed the cookie. Cookies are extremely common and used on a number of websites. Each cookie will typically contain the name of the domain from which the cookie has come, the "lifetime" of the cookie, and a value (usually a unique number).
Cookies allow a website owner to do useful things; for example, a cookie would permit a website owner to find out whether a computer (and probably its user) has visited the site previously. In general, the purpose of cookies is to improve the performance of the website and the user’s experience in using that website. Cookies help to make a website work more efficient, enable extra functionality, and provide website owners with additional information about your visit to a website. Cookies also allow a website owner to track overall site usage and determine areas that users prefer. Cookies help make the user’s visit to a website easier by recognizing the user upon return and providing a customized experience.
Our websites may place first party cookies and allow third parties to place cookies on your device. The difference between a first party cookie and a third party cookie relates to the control of the party who serves the cookie. First party cookies are cookies that are specific to the website that created them. Their use enables us to operate an efficient service and to track the patterns of behavior of visitors to the website. Third party cookies, on the other hand, are placed on your device by a third party (i.e., not by Verisure). While we may allow third parties access to the website to place these cookies on users’ devices, we do not retain control over the information supplied by the cookies, nor do we retain access to that data. This information is controlled wholly by that third party in accordance with their respective privacy policy.
Our websites may place session and persistent cookies on your device. The difference between a session cookie and a persistent cookie relates to the length of time the cookie lasts. Session cookies are cookies that typically last for as long as you are using your browser, or browser session. When you end your browser session, the cookie expires. Persistent cookies, however, will last after you close your browser. This allows for quicker and often more convenient access to our website.
On our website we use cookies for the following purposes. To authenticate the user, to remember the user's settings and preferences etc.
The consent you provide to the installation of cookies in your devices is the legal basis for our processing of your personal data.
Our website uses both session and persistent cookies. Some of those cookies follow technical purposes and are required to provide you our website services, other are used to customize our website according to your profile or to analyze your use of our website.
You may revoke the consent you provided for the installation of cookies in your device anytime through different manners. For this purpose, Verisure provides you with access to the Cookies Control Panel, in which you may manage your setting regarding the installation of cookies.
In addition, most web browsers allow at least some control of most cookies through browser settings. You may refuse the use of cookies by selecting the appropriate settings on your browser to decline cookies. You may also delete existing cookies through your browser.
