This Cookie Notice explains how WorkSafe (‘WorkSafe, ‘we’, ‘our’ or ‘us’) uses cookies and similar technologies to recognize you when you visit our application. It explains what these technologies are and why we use them, as well as your rights to control our use of them.
A cookie is a simple and small file that is stored on your device, for example to offer the basic functionality of the application, to remember your settings and preferences and for statistical purposes. Different types of cookies exist, depending on their features and functions, and they might be stored on the users’ devices for different timeframes: session cookies are cancelled at the end of each browsing session; persistent cookies may last up to a certain date that has been pre-set by their owner. Besides cookies, there are other digital techniques to store information or to gain access to information stored on your terminal equipment. We will treat these techniques as if they were cookies and if we mention cookies in our Privacy Notice, we also refer to these techniques.
We differentiate first party cookies and third party cookies. The word “party” refers to the domain as specified in cookie: the Application that is placing the cookie. First party cookies are managed by WorkSafe itself or used on behalf of WorkSafe and refer to WorkSafe’s domain. Third party cookies are not placed in the Application.
We use first party cookies that are required for technical reasons in order for our Application to operate and we refer to these as “essential” or “strictly necessary” cookies. No other cookies are used in the Application.

Cookies are the only way to recognize or track visitors to our Application. We do not 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 enable us to recognize when someone has visited a website or application. This allow, for example, to monitor the traffic patterns of users from one page within website or application to another, to deliver or communicate with cookies, to understand whether you have come to application or website from an online advertisement displayed on a third-party application, to improve site performance, and to measure the success of e-mail marketing campaigns. In many instances, these technologies are reliant on cookies to function properly, and so declining cookies will impair their functioning.
We do not serve any targeted advertising in our Application and we do not perform any process to collect any information to identify your name, contact details or other personally identifying details.
