This Cookie Policy explains how Base (referred to here as **"we"**, **"us"** and **"our"**)
|
|
uses cookies and similar technologies when you visit [base.org](https://base.org) (the
|
|
**"Site"**) and/or when you explore and use Base through the Base protocol or any other
|
|
applications, tools, and features we operate (collectively referred to as the **"Services"**).
|
|
It explains what these technologies are and why we use them, as well as your rights to
|
|
control our use of them.
|
|
|
|
In some cases, we may use cookies and similar technologies to collect personal information,
|
|
or information that becomes personal information if we combine it with other information.
|
|
In such cases, the [Base Privacy Policy](./privacy-policy.md) will apply
|
|
in addition to this Cookie Policy.
|
|
|
|
## 1. What Are Cookies?
|
|
|
|
Browser cookies are text files with small pieces of data downloaded onto your computer or
|
|
mobile device. Browser cookies and other similar technologies enable websites and apps to
|
|
store information or facilitate access to information stored on your device to enable
|
|
certain features and distinguish you from other visitors. These technologies are used by
|
|
most website and app providers to let users navigate between pages efficiently, ensure
|
|
security of the webpage or application, understand how their websites are used, remember
|
|
user preferences and generally improve the user experience. More information on cookies
|
|
and their use can be found at [aboutcookies.org](https://www.aboutcookies.org) or
|
|
[allaboutcookies.org](https://www.allaboutcookies.org). Cookies set by the website operator
|
|
are called **"first party cookies"** and Cookies set by parties other than the website
|
|
operator are called **"third party cookies"**. You should check the third-party's website
|
|
for more information on how they use cookies.
|
|
|
|
## 2. What Do We Use Cookies For?
|
|
|
|
When you access our Site and Services, we, or companies we work with, may place cookies
|
|
(collectively called **"cookies"** in this Cookie Policy) and similar technologies (such as
|
|
web beacons, software development kits (**"SDKs"**), APIs, tags and local storage) on your
|
|
computer or other device for the following purposes:
|
|
|
|
### Strictly Necessary purposes
|
|
|
|
Strictly Necessary cookies are essential for our Services to function and therefore
|
|
cannot be switched off. They are usually only set in response to actions made by you
|
|
which amount to a request for services, such as setting your privacy preferences,
|
|
logging in, or filling in forms. These also include cookies we may rely on for security
|
|
purposes, such as to prevent unauthorised access attempts. You can set your browser to
|
|
block or alert you about these cookies at any time, but some features of our Services
|
|
may not work.
|
|
|
|
### Performance purposes
|
|
|
|
We use these cookies to count visits and traffic sources so we can measure and improve
|
|
the performance of our Services. These cookies help us to know which pages are the most
|
|
and least popular and see how visitors move around the Site, and to resolve any errors
|
|
that occur on the Services quickly to provide you with a better experience. For example,
|
|
our first party base_device_id cookie is used to provide analytics on how our Site and
|
|
Services perform. This cookie lasts for 3 months.
|
|
|
|
## 3. How to Manage Cookies, Similar Technologies and Targeted Online Mobile Advertising

|

|
|
