General

Meddata, Inc. uses cookies to keep our sites reliable, secure and personalised. When you accept cookies, this helps make the site better by remembering your preferences, customising content, and enhancing your experience. This Cookie Policy applies to all websites and web applications which link to this policy and are published by Meddata, Inc. (“Sites”). This policy should be read alongside our Privacy Policy, which explains how we use personal information. If you have any queries about the way we use your personal information or cookies, please contact us at info@meddatainc.com.

What are cookies?

Cookies are small text files which a website may place on your computer or device when you visit a site. The cookie will help the website, or another website, to recognise your device the next time you visit. Web beacons, pixels or other similar files can also do the same thing. We use the term “cookies” in this policy to refer to all files that collect information in this way.

Cookies serve many functions. For example, they can help us to remember your username and preferences, analyse how well our Sites are performing, or allow us to recommend content we believe will be most relevant to you.

The majority of websites use cookies to collect and retain personal information about their visitors. Most cookies collect general information, such as how visitors arrive at and use our Sites, the device they are using, their internet protocol address (IP address), what pages they are viewing and their approximate location.

Purpose of cookies

We group our cookies into the below categories.

Operating our Sites

Some cookies are essential for the operation of our Sites. This includes cookies for the following purposes: access, billing, performance, functionality, analytics, and fraud prevention.

Third party cookies on our Sites

We also use third party cookies on our Sites that fall into the categories above (“third party cookies”) for the following reasons: to help us monitor traffic on our Sites (like many companies, we use Google Analytics to do this); to identify fraudulent or non-human traffic; to assist with market research; to improve Site functionality; to monitor compliance with our terms and conditions and copyright policy. 

Use of pixels in emails

Our emails often contain a single, campaign-unique “web beacon pixel” to tell us whether, and how many times, our emails are opened and verify any clicks through to links or advertisements within the email. We use this information for purposes including: determining which of our emails are more interesting to users; and determining users’ activity and engagement with our products and services.

The pixel will be deleted when you delete the email. If you do not wish the pixel to be downloaded to your device, you should select to receive emails from us in plain text rather than HTML via your email provider settings.
