This cookie policy applies to all Sites and mobile applications operated by or on behalf of Globus Infocom Limited.
What are cookies?
Cookies are small files that are downloaded to your device when you visit a website or mobile application. The cookie then sends information back to the website operator or to another website operator that recognizes that cookie. Cookies are useful because they allow a website to recognize a user’s device. Cookies do lots of different jobs, like letting you navigate between pages efficiently, remembering your preferences, and generally improving the user experience.
We also use other tracking technologies called web beacons, embedded scripts, and flash cookies. Sometimes these technologies are also called cookies, but they are not quite the same.
Cookies we use
Please see below for details about how we use different categories of cookies and other tracking technologies, as well as how you can manage cookie settings:
Functional cookies – We use functional cookies to retain the information you entered (such as your language or your geographic region) and collect information about how the Globus Websites are used. We may use third-party technology to track and analyse usage information to improve how the Globus Websites function, improve your browsing experience, provide more relevant communications, and track the performance of our advertisements. To manage the use of functional cookies on the Globus Websites, consult your individual browser settings for cookies.
Advertising cookies – We or authorized third parties may use cookies to show you ads for our products that we think may interest you on any devices you may use. You may see advertisements for Globus’s products/solutions on other websites or mobile applications on any of your devices.

Information collected by our cookies. Tracking technologies on our Sites collect several types of information, including information about your usage of our Sites, details about your device, and your IP address. Usage of our Sites might include the time at which your device accesses our Sites, the page you visit, how long you spend on each page, and the links you click. Cookies might also collect the link that brought you to our Sites and the webpage you visit after you leave our Sites. Details about your device might include the type of browser you used to access our Sites, the version of that browser, and what kind of device you use. An IP address is the number assigned to your device, for example your laptop or mobile phone, when your device accesses the Internet. Your device may have a static IP address, which means that your device always has the same IP address. Or it may have a dynamic IP address, which means that the IP address changes each time the device accesses the Internet.
To the extent that the information collected by our tracking technologies is personal data under applicable data protection law, we treat it as personal data. If we link information collected through tracking technologies with any personal data you provide to us through our Sites, e.g., through submitting a form, we also treat that information as personal data.
Sharing information. We use cookies provided by third-party service providers to assist us in better understanding our visitors. These cookies collect usage data, such as the time users spend on a web page. The third-party service providers use this information to provide us with reports about Site traffic and interactions. Globus then uses that information to offer better Site experiences and tools in the future.
Globus also may share information collected from cookies placed by our Sites with other third parties hired to perform services for us, such as marketing service providers, data security consultants, and website development consultants.

In your cookie consent manager and browser security settings, you can adjust what cookies you want to accept or refuse at any time. However, please be advised that if you disable certain cookies, some of the features of our Sites may not function properly or be available to you, such as those which require identification, and refusing all or certain cookies may result in a more limited experience of some of the services offered on the Site.
