Cookie Policy
Introduction
EAi Technologies Privacy Notice sets forth its personal data handling practices when using its cvengineering.com website (the “Website”) or its products or services (“Services”). This Cookie Notice provides further explanation, as well as options available to you regarding cookie use.
Cookie Notice
EAi Technologies uses cookies and other similar technologies on its Website and Services. While some of these cookies are strictly necessary (essential) for EAi Technologies to operate its Website and provide its Services, others are not. For example, non-essential cookies may provide benefits to us, such as helping improve our Website’s performance, while simultaneously enhancing your experience when you visit the Website.
Except as otherwise stated in this Cookie Notice and our Privacy Notice, we do not sell, trade, rent, or otherwise share your Personal Data with third parties for marketing purposes without your consent.
About cookies
Before we get into the details, it’s important to clarify what we’re talking about. “Cookies” are small data files that are sent to your computer when you browse a website. Cookies are ubiquitous on the internet and, as mentioned above, can provide enormous benefits to businesses and users alike. They can also impact your privacy.
Cookie attributes and how we use them
Cookies come in all different shapes and sizes. What we mean by this is that there are several ways to describe cookies by what we call “cookie attributes.” These attributes include the following and are not limited to just one classification:
By purpose. Cookies can be classified into general categories depending on their purpose. The broadest cookie classification by purpose is essential and non-essential.
Essential. These cookies are essential or “strictly necessary” for the Website or Services to operate as intended. Examples include logging you into the Website, sending a document for an eSignature, inviting users, and enabling access to various features, such as setting your privacy preferences, logging in, filling in forms, creating a unique user session, and enabling access to secure areas.
Functionality. These cookies are used to remember website preferences and choices, such as your language preference. This can include login details, such as your name and password; the region in which you reside, such as your country; and customizable elements on a webpage. We or our third-party providers whose services we have incorporated into our pages may set these cookies. These cookies do not track browsing on other websites and do not collect data for marketing. Certain website functionality may cease to be available to you if you disable them.
Performance.* These cookies are used to enhance and improve the performance of our Website and Services. They collect information that helps us understand how our customers use the Website and Services and evaluate the effectiveness of our marketing campaigns. For example, we may utilize Google Analytics, ReadMe, or other third-party services to gather Website analytics. These cookies may collect IP addresses and generate unique identifiers to analyze how frequently you visit our Website and gather other metrics, such as page views. These cookies collect aggregated information and are therefore anonymous. If you do not allow these cookies, we will not know when you have visited our Website and will not be able to monitor its performance.
Targeting.* Targeting cookies are used by our advertising and marketing partners and work primarily by uniquely identifying your device, such as through an advertising ID, IP address, or geolocation. They are used to build a profile of your interests and show you relevant advertisements on other websites you may visit. These cookies are primarily placed by third parties and may be used to connect to social media platforms. If you do not allow these cookies, you will experience less targeted advertising.
NOTE: The Performance and Targeting cookie categories above are non-essential.
By party placement. Cookies are also distinguishable by the party setting them in relation to the Website.
First party. These cookies are set, or sent to your computer, by the website owner. When you visit our Website, any cookies we set are called first-party cookies.
Third party. These cookies are set, or sent to your computer, by anyone other than the website owner. When you visit a website, any cookies set in this manner are called third-party cookies. Third-party cookies are set specifically to track and record a web user’s online activity, such as browsing history, online behavior, and demographics. This information is then used to develop a user profile, understand the user’s activity and the website’s performance, and create customized advertisements.
By duration. Cookies are also distinguishable by the length of time they are operational.
Session. Session cookies exist temporarily and operate only while the browser is open. They allow the user to continue to be recognized from page to page within a website. During the session, these cookies remember actions that a user takes and then terminate when the browser is closed.
Persistent. Persistent cookies are set for significantly longer periods than session cookies, usually one to two years. These cookies terminate on a specific date or after a set period has elapsed. While they are operational, they can provide benefits such as helping authenticate a user, keeping a user logged in, and remembering how preferences are set, including menu settings, themes, language selections, and internal bookmarks. They can also be used to track browsing habits and create a digital dossier during this time unless disabled.
Other technologies we use
Cookies are not the only way to track visitors to a website. We and our third-party partners may use other similar technologies, such as clear GIFs, also known as “tracking pixels” and “web beacons.” Clear GIFs are small graphic files containing an identifier that recognizes when a user visits our Website. This allows our third-party partners to monitor traffic patterns between websites, communicate with cookies, understand whether you arrived from an advertisement displayed on a third-party website, monitor the success of marketing campaigns, and improve site performance. These technologies typically rely on cookies to function, so disabling cookies in your browser will impair their functionality.

Cookie Banner. EAi Technologies gives you the option to either accept, or opt in to, or decline, or opt out of, its use of cookies through a Cookie Banner.
