MUZIC Cookie Policy Effective as of January 03, 2023 (Effective Date) Last updated as of January 03, 2023 What are cookies and similar technologies? We use cookies and similar technologies when you visit MUZIC websites and use MUZIC mobile applications, desktop applications, or web applications (collectively "Services"). Digital cookies and similar technologies help us make our Services reliable, secure, and better to use. They do this by recognizing when you've signed in and analyzing how you use our Services so we can make them more useful to you. This gives you a more personalized experience and makes our ads work better. When you interact with our Services, we obtain certain information with automated technologies, such as cookies, web server logs, web beacons, software development toolkits (SDKs), and other technologies. A cookie is a text file that websites send to a visitor's computer or other internet-connected devices to identify the visitor's browser or to store information or settings in the browser. A web beacon, also known as an Internet tag, a pixel tag, or a clear GIF, is a tiny graphic image that may be used in our websites or emails to indicate that a website or email has been viewed. A web server logs and records activities on our websites. We use web local storage, which saves your web activity on your computer or mobile device. Other types of logs collect similar information from our apps. These logs record information about the device you use to access our website: its operating system; its browser; its domain and other system settings; the language your system uses; and the country and time zone in which your device is located. An SDK is a software development kit that functions like cookies and web beacons. SDKs are set in a mobile app environment where cookies and web beacons cannot work as effectively. We collectively refer to the above technologies for this Cookie Policy as "cookies." Why do we use cookies? MUZIC and our partners (third parties) use cookies to operate and support our business and to provide you with a better, faster, safer, and improved experience when you use our Services. We use cookies for the following purposes: To keep our Services secure and reliable and to prevent fraud and abuse. To authenticate you and enable your login to our Services. To support enhanced functionalities of our Services. Remember your preferences so you do not have to re-enter them for your subsequent use of our Services. To measure the performance of our Services and to understand how you use and interact with them. To provide you with interest-based advertising (as explained in detail below) and to measure how valuable our Services and communications, including marketing campaigns, are to you. To otherwise manage and enhance our Services. What categories of cookies do we use, and what is their purpose? Session and persistent cookies: We use both session (temporary) and persistent cookies.
