This Cookie Policy explains how Logiciel D’identité Skycloak inc. (“Company,” “we,” “us,” and “our”) uses cookies and similar technologies to recognize you when you visit our website at https://skycloak.io (“Website”). 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 to collect personal information, or that becomes personal information if we combine it with other information.
What are cookies?
Cookies are small data files that are placed on your computer or mobile device when you visit a website. Cookies are widely used by website owners in order to make their websites work, or to work more efficiently, as well as to provide reporting information.
Cookies set by the website owner (in this case, Logiciel D’identité Skycloak inc.) are called “first-party cookies.” Cookies set by parties other than the website owner are called “third-party cookies.” Third-party cookies enable third-party features or functionality to be provided on or through the website (e.g., advertising, interactive content, and analytics). The parties that set these third-party cookies can recognize your computer both when it visits the website in question and also when it visits certain other websites.
Why do we use cookies?
We use first- and third-party cookies for several reasons. Some cookies are required for technical reasons in order for our Website to operate, and we refer to these as “essential” or “strictly necessary” cookies. Other cookies enable us to understand how our Website is used and to measure the effectiveness of our advertising. This is described in more detail below.
How can I control cookies?
You have the right to decide whether to accept or reject cookies. You can exercise your cookie rights at any time using the “Consent Preferences” link in our website footer, which lets you accept or reject cookies by category. Essential cookies cannot be rejected as they are strictly necessary to provide you with services.
If you choose to reject non-essential cookies, you may still use our Website, though your access to some functionality and areas of our Website may be restricted. You may also set or amend your web browser controls to accept or refuse cookies.
The specific types of first- and third-party cookies served through our Website and the purposes they perform are described in the tables below (please note that the specific cookies served may vary depending on the specific pages you visit):

What about other tracking technologies, like web beacons?
Cookies are not the only way to recognize or track visitors to a website. We may use other, similar technologies from time to time, like web beacons (sometimes called “tracking pixels” or “clear gifs”). These are tiny graphics files that contain a unique identifier that enables us to recognize when someone has visited our Website or opened an email including them. In many instances, these technologies are reliant on cookies to function properly, and so declining cookies will impair their functioning.
Do you serve targeted advertising?
Yes. We use Google Ads to measure the effectiveness of our advertising and attribute conversions to our marketing campaigns, as described in the Advertising cookies table above. Google may use information about your visits to this and other websites to provide relevant advertisements about our services. You can opt out at any time using the “Consent Preferences” link in our website footer, or directly through Google’s Ads Settings at https://adssettings.google.com. The information collected through this process does not enable us or Google to identify your name, contact details, or other details that directly identify you unless you choose to provide these.
How often will you update this Cookie Policy?
We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time in order to reflect, for example, changes to the cookies we use or for other operational, legal, or regulatory reasons. Please therefore revisit this Cookie Policy regularly to stay informed about our use of cookies and related technologies. The date at the top of this Cookie Policy indicates when it was last updated.
