Cookies and Web Beacons

On certain pages, cookies are used to help us track your interests while you browse the internet, so we can tailor more relevant advertising to you, and to understand what is important to you.
What is a cookie?
A “cookie” is technology that allows ZC site to store tokens of information (an ‘identifier’) in your browser used only by ZC site while you are on ZC site. Cookies are not used to determine the personal identity of anyone who is merely visiting ZC site. They serve to help us track traffic patterns to determine a user’s preferred location and language so that we can direct them to the correct country home page when they visit ZC site.
Cookies have other uses as well. For example, in the Thought Centre Webcast section (“Webcast Section”), they are used to provide entry for subscribers who have chosen the automatic log-on feature during registration. Cookies are also used to prevent online poll participants from voting more than once.
How do I disable cookies?
If you do not want to receive a cookie from ZC site or the Webcast Section, you have the option of setting your browser to notify you when you receive a cookie, so that you may determine whether to accept it or not. However, please be aware that if you do turn off ‘cookies’ in your browser, you will not be able to fully experience some of ZC sites. For example, you will not be able to benefit from automatic log-on and other personalization features of the Webcast Section.

This information is collected on an anonymous basis via third party suppliers.
In addition, we also utilise cookies on certain pages of ZC site to communicate with third party data suppliers in order to extrapolate your digital behaviour.

As part of our effort to track the success of our advertising campaigns, we may at times use a visitor identification technology such as “web beacons,” or “action tags,” which count visitors who have come to ZC site after being exposed to an Ziyasiza banner ad on a third party site. We do not use this technology to access your personal information and it is only used to compile aggregated statistics about visitors who come to ZC site to gauge the effectiveness of our ads.
