Cookie Policy

1. Introduction

This Cookie Policy explains how TX Online ("we," "our," or "us") uses cookies and similar technologies to recognize you when you visit our website and application (collectively, "Services"). It explains what these technologies are and why we use them, as well as your rights to control our use of them.

2. 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 work, or to work more efficiently, as well as to provide reporting information.

Cookies set by the website owner (in this case, TX Online) are called "first-party cookies." Cookies set by parties other than the website owner are called "third-party cookies." Third-party cookies enable third-party features or functionality to be provided on or through the website (e.g., advertising, interactive content, and analytics). The parties that set these third-party cookies can recognize your computer both when it visits the website in question and also when it visits certain other websites.

3. Why Do We Use Cookies?

We use first-party and third-party cookies for several reasons. Some cookies are required for technical reasons in order for our Services to operate, and we refer to these as "essential" or "strictly necessary" cookies. Other cookies enable us to track and target the interests of our users to enhance the experience on our Services. Third parties may also serve cookies through our Services for analytics, optimization, and other purposes.

4. Types of Cookies We Use

The specific types of first and third-party cookies served through our Services and the purposes they perform include:

4.1 Essential Cookies

These cookies are strictly necessary to provide you with services available through our Services and to use some of its features, such as access to secure areas. Because these cookies are strictly necessary to deliver the Services, you cannot refuse them without impacting how our Services function.

• Authentication cookies
• Security cookies
• Session state cookies

4.2 Performance and Functionality Cookies

These cookies are used to enhance the performance and functionality of our Services but are non-essential to their use. However, without these cookies, certain functionality may become unavailable.

• Preference cookies
• Browser state cookies

4.3 Analytics and Customization Cookies

These cookies collect information that is used either in aggregate form to help us understand how our Services are being used or how effective our marketing campaigns are, or to help us customize our Services for you.

• Google Analytics
• Usage pattern tracking

4.4 Social Media Cookies

These cookies are used to enable you to share pages and content that you find interesting on our Services through third-party social networking and other websites. These cookies may also be used for advertising purposes.

5. Other Tracking Technologies

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 enable us to recognize when someone has visited our Services. This allows us, for example, to monitor the traffic patterns of users from one page within our Services to another, to deliver or communicate with cookies, to understand whether you have come to our Services 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.

6. Local Storage

We may also use Local Storage (such as HTML5 storage) and similar technologies on our Services for storing login tokens, user preferences, and maintaining state information across sessions. Like cookies, these technologies can be used to store user preferences and to enable certain website functionality, but they offer certain advantages over cookies, such as the ability to store larger amounts of data.

7. How Can You Control Cookies?

You have the right to decide whether to accept or reject cookies. You can exercise your cookie preferences by following the instructions provided in our cookie consent manager when you first visit our Services.

You can also set or amend your web browser controls to accept or refuse cookies. If you choose to reject cookies, you may still use our Services, but your access to some functionality and areas of our Services may be restricted. As the means by which you can refuse cookies through your web browser controls vary from browser to browser, you should visit your browser's help menu for more information.

In addition, most advertising networks offer you a way to opt out of targeted advertising. If you would like to find out more information, please visit http://www.aboutads.info/choices/ or http://www.youronlinechoices.com.

8. How Often Will We Update This Cookie Policy?

We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time in order to reflect, for example, changes to the cookies we use or for other operational, legal, or regulatory reasons. Please therefore revisit this Cookie Policy regularly to stay informed about our use of cookies and related technologies.

The date at the top of this Cookie Policy indicates when it was last updated.
