Cookie Policy
To make everything work properly, Dream Consistency uses cookies on the Website. This Cookie Policy makes an integral part of our Privacy Policy and Terms of Use. You can find out more about cookies and how to control them in the information below
What are cookies?
Cookies are small files of information that a web server generates and sends to a web browser. Web browsers store the cookies they receive for a predetermined period of time, or for the length of a user's session on a website. They attach the relevant cookies to any future requests the user makes of the web server.
Cookies help inform websites about the user, enabling the websites to personalize the user experience. For example, ecommerce websites use cookies to know what merchandise users have placed in their shopping carts. In addition, some cookies are necessary for security purposes, such as authentication cookies.
Where are cookies stored?
Web browsers store cookies in a designated file on users' devices. The Google Chrome web browser, for instance, stores all cookies in a file labeled "Cookies." Chrome users can view the cookies stored by the browser by opening developer tools, clicking the "Application" tab, and clicking on "Cookies" in the left side menu.
Type of Cookies
In general, there are three different ways to classify cookies: how long they endure, their provenance and what purpose they serve.
Duration
Session cookies - These cookies are also known as transient cookies or per-session cookies. Session cookies store information while the user is visiting the website. These cookies are deleted once the user closes the session.
Persistent cookies - Persistent cookies are stored for a specific length of time. These cookies remain on your device until they expire or are deleted. Persistent cookies are sometimes called tracking cookies because they are used to collect user information such as browsing habits and preferences.
Provenance
First-party cookies — As the name implies, first-party cookies are put on your device directly by Dream Consistency.
Third-party cookies - These are cookies that come alongside third-party content, not by Dream Consistency, such as embedded videos, ads, web banners, and scripts, on a visited website that users visit. Advertisers often use third-party cookies to track user behavior.
Purpose
Essential cookies - also knowned as required or necessary cookies help make a site usable by enabling basic functions like page navigation and access to secure areas of the website, as well as enable core functionality such as security, network management, and accessibility. The Website cannot function properly without these cookies.
Preference cookies - enable the Website to remember information that changes the way the Website behaves or looks, like your preferred language or the region you are in.
Analytics cookies - they help us understand how visitors interact with the Website by collecting and reporting information anonymously. These cookies allow us to count visits and traffic sources so that we can measure and improve the performance of our Website. They help us know which pages are the most and the least popular and see how visitors move around the Website. All information collected by these cookies is collected anonymously and none of this information can be used to identify you.
Marketing cookies - are used to target advertising to a user (behavioural targeting). They are often served by third party companies, and track a user across websites.
Which third-party cookies do we use?
We use cookies from external tools on our website like Google Analytics.
Google Analytics - is a website web analytics service offered by Google that tracks and reports website traffic. It helps us understand what visitors are doing on our website. Google Analytics uses a set of cookies to collect information and report site usage statistics without personally identifying individual visitors to Google. ‘_ga’, the main cookie used by Google Analytics, enables a service to distinguish one visitor from another and lasts for 2 years. More about Google Analytics can be found on this link.
