Cookies and Web Beacons 

Cookies are text files containing small amounts of information that are downloaded to your hard disk or to your browser’s memory when you visit one of KMTEQ’s sites. Cookies are useful because they help arrange the content and layout of our sites and allow us to recognize those computers or other devices that have been to our sites before. Cookies do many different jobs, such as allowing our websites to remember your preference settings and helping us to enhance the usability and performance of our sites and your experience using them. 
 
Our sites also may contain electronic images known as web beacons – sometimes called single-pixel gifs – that allow us to count the number of users who have visited specific pages. We may include web beacons in promotional e-mail messages or newsletters to determine whether messages have been opened and acted upon.

Cookie categories 

The type of cookie that may be used on KMTEQ’s sites can be put into 1 of 4 categories: Strictly Necessary, Performance, Functionality & Profile, and Advertising. 
 
1. Strictly Necessary Cookies 
These cookies are essential, as they enable you to move around our sites and use their features, particularly in connection with information searches and order placement. Without these cookies, the services you have asked for cannot be provided. These cookies do not gather information about you that could be used for marketing or remembering where you have been on the internet. An example of a strictly necessary cookie is a “shopping basket cookie,” which is used to remember the products that you wish to purchase when you add products to your shopping basket or proceed to checkout. 
 
2. Performance Cookies 
These cookies collect information about how you use our sites, for example, which pages you go to most often and if you get any error messages from certain pages. These cookies collect only anonymous information that is used to improve how our sites work. 
 These cookies are not used to target you with online advertising. Without these cookies, we cannot learn how our sites are performing and make relevant improvements that could better your browsing experience. Examples of performance cookies that our sites use include Google and Adobe Analytics. 
 
3. Functionality & Profile Cookies 
These cookies allow our sites to store information that you provide such as your site language preference and to store technical information useful for your interactions with our site. For instance, they remember your user ID and elements of your user profile. They also ensure that your experience using the sites and KMTEQ’s marketing efforts are relevant to you. They may also be used to provide services you have asked for such as watching a video or commenting on a blog. The information these cookies collect may be anonymous and they cannot track your browsing activity on other websites. 
 Without these cookies, a website cannot remember choices you have previously made or personalize your browsing experience. For example, we use a cookie to store your language preferences, which allows us to present you with product search results in the correct language, and we use a cookie to store your choice about the appearance of the cookie information banner that we display on our sites. This cookie will help us remember your choice about the appearance of the cookie information banner when you subsequently visit the same site where you made your choice about the banner and any other KMTEQ sites with the same domain or the same top-level domain. 
 
4. Advertising Cookies 
 These cookies may be used to deliver advertisements that are more relevant to you and your interests. They may also be used to limit the times you see an advertisement as well as help to measure the effectiveness of the advertising campaign. Although these cookies may track your visits to other websites, they do not usually know who you are. 
 Without these cookies, online advertisements you encounter will be less relevant to you and your interests.

Setting your cookie preference 
 You can accept or decline cookies. Most internet browsers automatically accept cookies, but you can usually modify your browser settings to decline cookies or to notify you when a cookie is being placed on your computer. If you choose to decline cookies, you may not be able to fully experience the features of KMTEQ’s sites or other websites that you visit. 
 
Our use of web analytics 
KMTEQ uses industry standard web analytics to track visits to our sites. These analytics are provided by Google Analytics. The information generated by the cookie about your use of our sites (including your IP address) will be transmitted to and stored by Google on servers in the United States. Google will use this information for the purpose of evaluating your use of our sites, compiling reports on website activity for website operators, and providing other services relating to website activity and internet usage. Google may also transfer this information to third parties where required to do so by law, or where such third parties process the information on Google’s behalf. Google will not associate your IP address with any other data held by Google.

Do-Not-Track Signals and Similar Mechanisms 
 Some web browsers may transmit “do-not-track” signals to the sites with which the user communicates. Because of differences in how web browsers incorporate and activate this feature, it is not always clear whether users intend for these signals to be transmitted, or whether they are even aware of them. There currently is disagreement, including among participants in the leading internet standards-setting organization, concerning what, if anything, websites should do when they receive such signals. 
 
KMTEQ currently does not act in response to these signals. When a final standard is established and accepted, KMTEQ will reassess how to respond to these signals.
