What are cookies?

Cookies are small data files that are placed on your computer or mobile device when you visit a website. Cookies are widely used by website owners to make their websites function, or to work more efficiently, as well as to provide reporting information.

Cookies set by the website owner (in this case, Aetos) are “first-party cookies.” Cookies set by other parties are called “third-party cookies,” and these enable third-party features or functionality to be provided through the website, such as advertising, interactive content, and/or analytics. The parties that set these third-party cookies can recognize your device when it visits a specific website and when it visits other websites.

Why do we use cookies?

We use first and third-party cookies for several reasons. Some are required for technical reasons for our Website to function, and we refer to these as “essential” or "strictly necessary cookies. Other cookies also enable website owners to track and target the interests of our users to enhance the experience on our Website. Third parties may serve cookies through a Website for advertising, analytics, and other purposes. Our use of cookies is described in greater detail below.

How can I control cookies?

You can exercise your cookie rights by setting your Cookie Preferences, which allow you to select which categories of cookies you accept or reject. Essential cookies cannot be rejected as they are strictly necessary to provide you with service.

How can I control cookies on my browser?

As the means by which you can refuse cookies through your web browser controls vary from browser to browser, you should access your browser help menu for more information.

What about other tracking technologies, like web beacons?

Cookies are not the only way to recognize or track visitors to a website. We may 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 enables us to recognize when someone has visited our Website or opened an email including them. This allows us, for example, to monitor the traffic patterns of users from one page within a website to another, to deliver or communicate with cookies, to understand whether you have come to the website from an online advertisement displayed on a third-party website, to improve site performance, and to measure the success of email marketing campaigns. In many instances, these technologies are reliant on cookies to function properly, and so declining cookies will impair their functioning.

Do you use Flash cookies or Local Shared Objects?

Websites may also use so-called "Flash Cookies" (also known as Local Shared Objects or "LSOS") to, among other things, collect and store information about your use of our services, fraud prevention, and for other site operations.

If you do not want Flash Cookies stored on your computer, you can adjust the settings of your Flash player to block Flash Cookies storage using the tools contained in the Website Storage Settings Panel. You can also control Flash Cookies by going to the Global Storage Settings Panel and following the instructions (which may include instructions that explain, for example, how to delete existing Flash Cookies (referred to "information" on the Macromedia site), how to prevent Flash LSOs from being placed on your computer without your being asked, and (for Flash Player 8 and later) how to block Flash Cookies that are not being delivered by the operator of the page you are on at the time).

Please note that setting the Flash Player to restrict or limit acceptance of Flash Cookies may reduce or impede the functionality of some Flash applications, including, potentially, Flash applications used in connection with our services or online content.
