Cookies

What are cookies?

Cookies save you the trouble of re-entering certain information in some registration areas, help you deliver content-specific information, and track which parts of the page are most popular. A 'cookie' is actually a file that our web server or the web server of one of our service providers or third party partners may send to your computer when you access one of our pages. This file is then stored on your computer.

What types of personal data are collected through the use of cookies?

Cookies may receive information that identifies your computer or browser, including your device ID, your IP address and/or ad ID, and information related to your browsing history. The information we obtain through the use of cookies may be combined with other personal data relating to you.

What types of cookies and other tracking technologies do we use and for what purposes?

Our site may use the following types of cookies and tracking technologies for the following purposes:
Strictly Necessary Cookies. Strictly necessary cookies are necessary for the website to function and cannot be turned off in our systems. These cookies are usually set only in response to your actions that constitute a request for services, such as setting your privacy settings, logging in or filling out forms. You can set your browser to block or warn you about these cookies, but blocking these cookies will prevent the site from working. These cookies usually do not store personal data.

Functional cookies. Functional cookies enable our web pages to provide enhanced functionality and personalization. They may be set by us or by third-party service providers whose services we have added to our sites. If you reject these cookies, some or all of these services may not function properly.

Performance cookies. Performance cookies allow us to count visits and traffic sources so that we can measure and improve the performance of our site. These cookies help us understand how our pages are used, such as which pages are the most popular and which are the least popular, and how people move around the page. The data collected in these cookies is aggregated, which means that it does not relate to you personally. By turning off these cookies, you will prevent us from knowing when you visited our site and will prevent us from tracking the operation of the site. In some cases, these cookies may be sent to our third-party service providers to help us manage that analytics. Social network cookies. Social media cookies are set by a number of social media services that we have added to the site (such as Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn) to enable you to share our content with your friends, colleagues and networks. These cookies can track our browser on other pages and build a profile of your interests. This may affect the content and messages you see on other websites you visit. If you do not allow these cookies, you may not be able to use or see these sharing tools.
Cookie targeting. Our advertising partners may place targeted cookies through our site. These companies may use them to build a profile of your interests and display relevant ads on other sites. These cookies do not store personal data directly, but are based on the unique identification of your browser and internet device. If you do not allow these cookies, you will experience less targeted advertising.

Web Beacons. A web beacon is a piece of software code on a web page or in an email message that is used to track pages viewed or messages opened. Web beacons tell the website server information such as the IP address and browser type related to the visitor's computer. Web beacons may be placed in online advertisements that bring people to our site and to different pages of our site. Web beacons provide us with information about how many times a page has been opened and what information has been viewed. Web beacons are also known as web beacons, single pixel GIFs, clear GIFs, and invisible GIFs.

How does our site respond to "Do Not Track" web browser signals?

Certain web browsers and other programs may be used to signal your preferences to Roche about how or whether Roche or third parties may collect information about your online activities. Currently, Roche does not respond to such signals.
What choices do you have regarding the delivery of targeted ads on third-party sites?
Most Internet browsers allow you to change your browser settings to notify you when you receive a cookie, allowing you to choose whether to accept cookies or automatically reject all cookies. Please note that this may affect the functionality of some parts of our website. If you have previously accepted cookies, you can use those same browser settings to reject such cookies if you change your mind.
