This Cookie Policy explains when and why cookies and similar tracking technologies are used by Leipzig Technology LLC (“LeapThru®”, “LeapThru”, “LeapThru Software”, “LeapThru Platform”, “Leipzig Tech”, “Leipzig Technology”, “Leipzig Technologies”, “LeapConnect™”, “LeapConnect”, “LeapConnect Platform”, “we” or “us”) and our partners on our websites, applications, advertisements and related services, including leapthru.com, leipzigtechnology.com, leipzigtechnologies.com, leapconnect.net and the mobile optimized versions of these sites and our Mobile Device Applications or “Apps” (we refer to these sites and Apps collectively as the “LeapThru Sites”). We refer to the LeapThru Sites, along with the information and services made available to you through the LeapThru Sites, as the “Services.”

Cookies
“Cookies” are small data files that are stored on the hard drive of the computer you use to view a website. Every computer that accesses a LeapThru Site is assigned a different cookie by LeapThru. Different Cookies serve different purposes:
Session cookies are specific to a particular visit and carry information as you view different pages within a LeapThru Site. Session cookies expire and delete themselves automatically in a short period of time, e.g., when you leave the website or when you close your browser.
Persistent cookies enable us to recognize you when you visit a LeapThru Site and remember your preferences. Persistent cookies are stored on your browser or mobile device until you choose to delete them, and otherwise typically delete themselves at expiration.
Third-party cookies are placed by someone other than LeapThru, and may gather browsing activity across multiple websites and sessions. They are usually persistent cookies and are stored until you delete them or they expire based on the time period set in each third-party cookie.
“Web Beacons” are graphic image files embedded in a page of a website typically used to monitor activity on the page and send back to its home server (which can belong to the host site, a network advertiser or some other third party) information from your browser, such as the IP address, the URL of the page on which the Web Beacon is located, the type of browser that is accessing the site and the ID number of any cookies on your computer previously placed by that server.
“Application SDKs” are mobile application third-party software development kits that are embedded in mobile applications. These app SDKs permit the collection of information about the app itself, activity in the app, and the device the application is running on.

When enabled by you, we collect precise location information provided by your mobile device, which you may disable through the device settings.
