Cookies Policy
Last updated 11th January 2019
The Snap.hr website may use “cookies” to help you personalize your online experience. A cookie is a text file that is placed on your hard disk by a web page server. Cookies cannot be used to run programs or deliver viruses to your computer. Cookies are uniquely assigned to you, and can only be read by a web server in the domain that issued the cookie to you.
One of the primary purposes of cookies is to provide a convenience feature to save you time. The purpose of a cookie is to tell the web server that you have returned to a specific page. For example, if you visit a Snap.hr website or service, a cookie helps Snap.hr to recall your information on subsequent visits. This simplifies the process of recording your personal information, such as billing addresses, shipping addresses, and so on. When you return to the same Snap.hr website, the information you previously provided can be retrieved, so you can easily use the Snap.hr features that you customized.
You have the ability to accept or decline cookies. Most Web browsers automatically accept cookies, but you can usually modify your browser setting to decline cookies if you prefer. If you choose to decline cookies, you may not be able to fully experience the interactive features of the Snap.hr services or websites you visit.
Snap.hr may also use other technologies with similar functionality to cookies, such as web beacons and tracking URLs. Snap.hr may also use web beacons and tracking URLs in emails to determine whether a recipient opened the email or accessed a certain link.

- Targeting cookies. These cookies record your visit to our website, the pages you have visited and the links you have followed. We will use this information to make our website and the advertising displayed on it more relevant to your interests. We may also share this information with third parties for this purpose.
