More Information About Cookies

Gestalt’s goal is to provide a digital experience that is always as intuitive, fast, relevant and as informative as possible. To support in this endeavor, we deploy tracking technologies in the form of both cookies and web beacons/action tags. This Cookie Notice is designed to provide transparency into the types of technologies we use, together with the reasons why we use them with view to ensure that you are comfortable with the controls you have to protect your privacy.

A cookie is a piece of script that is placed automatically on your computer’s hard drive when you access certain websites that, in serving to identify your unique browser, provide a means to personalize and accelerate the speed of your onsite experience. Web beacons represent script written into the underlying code of the website and are designed to help inform the owner about site performance by recording the instances in which a given action is being undertaken by web visitors, e.g., it might record that you clicked on a video, filled out a form, entered the site via a certain page and left by another, etc.
While there are nuances in how they both work, with cookies and web beacons representing terms frequently used interchangeably, for the purposes of simplification we will refer to both technologies as “cookies” from this point forward.
