This Cookie Policy explains how Wristcheck Exchange Limited (collectively referred to as “Wristcheck Exchange”, "we," "us," and "our") uses cookies and similar technologies to recognize you when you visit our website at  https://www.wristcheck.com ("Website") or wherever this Cookie Policy is referenced (“Website”). It explains what these technologies are and why we use them, as well as your rights to control our use of them. 

You may read more about Wristcheck Exchange’s general privacy practices in its Privacy Policy. 

Tracking technologies, such as cookies, tags, pixels, fingerprinting, web beacons, and similar scripts (collectively, “cookies”), are used to store and/or share information about website visitors, their systems, and browsers. Cookies are placed on your computer or mobile device when you visit a website, and used to store data that can be recalled by a web server in the domain that placed the cookie. Cookies are widely used by website owners to make their websites work, or to work more efficiently, as well as to provide reporting information.

Information collected by cookies and tracking technologies varies depending on each website's components and can be of a personal nature (information that directly or indirectly identifies you) and of non-personal nature (information that does not directly or indirectly identify any single individual, such as cookies used to enable language settings on a website). Information of a personal nature may include, but is not limited to, details regarding the device you are using, the browser you are using, your IP address, the previous website you visited, whether you clicked on one of our ads, and your browsing behavior.

Cookies set by the website owner (in this case, Wristcheck Exchange Limited) 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 when it visits certain other websites. Refer to the Third Party Cookies section to learn more.
 

Web beacons (sometimes called "tracking pixels" or "clear gifs") 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 Wristcheck Exchange, 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.

Wristcheck Exchange uses cookies and similar technologies for storing and honoring your preferences and settings, enabling you to sign in, providing interest-based advertising, combating fraud, analyzing how our products perform, and fulfilling other legitimate purposes, including:

• Performance. We use cookies to understand and improve how our products perform. For example, to log you in, save your language preferences, provide a shopping cart experience, improve performance, route traffic between web servers, detect the size of your screen, determine page load times, and measure audiences. These cookies are necessary for our websites to work. 
• Security. We use cookies to process information that helps us secure our products, as well as detect fraud and abuse.
• Sign-in and authentication. We use cookies to authenticate you. When you sign into a website using your Wristcheck Exchange account, we store a unique ID number, and the time you signed in, in an encrypted cookie on your device. This cookie allows you to move from page to page within the site without having to sign in again on each page. You can also save your sign-in information, so you do not have to sign in each time you return to the site.
• Storing information you provide to a website. We use cookies to remember information you shared. When you provide information to Wristcheck Exchange, such as when you add products to the shopping cart on our Website, we store the data in a cookie for the purpose of remembering the information.
• Storing your preferences and settings. We use cookies to store your preferences and settings on your device to enhance your experiences. For example, depending on your settings, if you enter your currency choice to view product pricing in the currency of choice on the Wristcheck Exchange website, we store that data in a cookie so that you will see pricing in your currency of choice when you return to the site. Saving your preferences with cookies, such as your preferred language, prevents you from having to set your preferences repeatedly. If you opt-out of interest-based advertising, we store your opt-out preference in a cookie on your device. Similarly, in scenarios where we obtain your consent to place cookies on your device, we store your choice in a cookie.

Some of the cookies that we use on our Website are there to technically enable the website and its components, we refer to these as "essential" or "strictly necessary" cookies. 
Where required, we obtain your consent prior to placing or using optional cookies that are not (i) strictly necessary to provide the website; or (ii) for the purpose of facilitating communication. Please see the “How to Manage Cookies” section below for more information.

In addition to the cookies set by Wristcheck Exchange when you visit our Website, we also use cookies from third parties to enhance services on our Website. Some third parties may also set cookies when you visit our Website.

Third parties use the data they process in accordance with their privacy policies, which may enable them to collect and combine information about your activities across websites, apps, or online services.

The following types of third-party cookies may be used, depending on the context, product and your settings and permissions:

• Social Media cookies. We and third parties use social media cookies to show you ads and content based on your social media profiles and activity on our websites. They’re used to connect your activity on our websites to your social media profiles so the ads and content you see on our websites and on social media will better reflect your interests.
• Analytics cookies. We allow third parties to use analytics cookies to understand how you use our Website so we can make them better and the third parties can develop and improve their products, which they may use on websites that are not owned or operated by Wristcheck Exchange.  For example, analytics cookies are used to gather information about the pages you visit and how many clicks you need to accomplish a task. These cookies may also be used for advertising purposes.
• Advertising cookies. We and third parties use advertising cookies to show you new ads by recording which ads you've already seen. They're also used to track which ads you click on or purchases you make after clicking on an ad for payment purposes, and to show you ads that are more relevant to you. For example, they're used to detect when you click on an ad and show you ads based on your social media interests and website browsing history.

For a list of the third parties that set cookies on our websites, including service providers and cookie duration, please visit our third-party cookie inventory in Cookie Preferences .

Essential website cookies

These cookies are strictly necessary to provide you with services available through our Website and to use some of its features, such as access to secure areas.

Analytics and customization cookies

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

Marketing cookies

These cookies are used to make advertising messages more relevant to you. They perform functions like preventing the same ad from continuously reappearing, ensuring that ads are properly displayed for advertisers, and in some cases selecting advertisements that are based on your interests.

Personalization cookies

These cookies allow the website to remember choices you make (such as your username, language, or the region you are in) and provide enhanced, more personal features. 

Cookie Consent 
As mentioned above, where required, we obtain your consent prior to placing or using optional cookies that are not (i) strictly necessary to provide the website; or (ii) for the purpose of facilitating communications. We separate these optional cookies by purpose, such as for advertising and social media purposes, as outlined in the Third Party Cookies section. 
You can exercise your cookie rights by accessing Cookie Preferences. “Cookie Preferences” allows you to view the current list of cookies implemented by category, preferences and select which categories of cookies you accept or reject. Essential cookies cannot be rejected as they are strictly necessary to provide you with services. 
Certain features of Wristcheck Exchange products depend on cookies. If you choose to reject cookies, you may still use our Website; however, access to some functionalities and areas of our Website may be restricted, and preferences that are dependent on cookies will be lost. If you choose to delete cookies, any settings and preferences controlled by those cookies, including advertising preferences, are deleted and will need to be recreated.

Browser Settings and Other Opt-out Mechanisms

For example, in Microsoft Edge, you can block or delete cookies by selecting Settings > Privacy and services > Clear Browsing data > Cookies and other site data.

Opting Out of Cookies and Sale/Sharing Using Online Tracking Technologies

Our use of online tracking technologies may be considered a “sale” / “sharing” under applicable law. Visitors in the US can opt out of being tracked by these third-parties by clicking on the “Cookies Preference” link in the footer of our Website and switching on the toggle for “Do Not Sell or Share My Personal Information” in the “Storage Preferences”.

If you do not have a Wristcheck Exchange account or if you are not logged into your Wristcheck Exchange account, your request to opt out of “sale” / “sharing” will be linked to your browser identifier only and not linked to any account information because the connection between your browser and the account is not known to us.

California and Colorado residents may opt out by transmitting an Opt-Out Preference Signal, such as the Global Privacy Control (GPC) (on the browsers and/or browser extensions that support such a signal). To download and use a browser supporting the GPC browser signal, click here: https://globalprivacycontrol.org/orgs. If you choose to use the GPC signal, you will need to turn it on for each supported browser or browser extension you use.

Categories of personal information disclosed that may be considered “sale” / “sharing”: Basic Identifying Information, Device Information and Other Unique Identifiers, Internet or Other Network Activity, Geolocation Data, and Commercial Data.

Categories of third parties to whom personal information was disclosed that may be considered “sale”/ “sharing” include advertisers and marketing partners, data analytics providers, and social media networks.

Residents of Canada can control the use of cookies and other online tracking technologies on our Website by us and by third parties (including advertisers and marketing partners, data analytics providers, and social media networks) through our consent management tools. Depending on your province of residence, the consent management tool may be available through “Cookie Preferences” or through a banner that presents itself when you visit the website or open the App.

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

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