Cookie Policy
This cookie policy describes how Citizen Watch Co., Ltd. and its affiliates and subsidiaries (collectively, “Citizen”, “we”, “our” or “us”) use cookies and other device identifying technologies (“Cookies”) on the Riiiver, including through the Riiiver-connected mobile applications and the Riiiver website, located at https://riiiver.com/en (“Riiiver”). This document informs you about the types of Cookies used, why they are used and how you can exercise your choices.
What are cookies?
We use the term ‘Cookies’ to refer to all technologies which store and access information on the device that you use to access the Riiiver, such as your computer, tablet or mobile phone. For example, we use http cookies, which are small data files (typically made up of numbers and letters) that are downloaded when you access the Riiiver and allow us to recognise your device. We also use technology like pixel tags and tokens, which are embedded in our websites and mobile applications.
Some Cookies help us to enhance the online experience of our visitors and to better understand how the Riiiver is used. For example, Cookies may tell us whether you have visited the Riiiver before or whether you are a new visitor. These cookies are non-essential, as they are not fundamentally required for purposes of functionality of the Riiiver and without them, the Riiiver still works. On the other hand, Cookies that are strictly necessary in order for the Riiiver to operate correctly are called essential Cookies and without these, we would not be able to deliver the Riiiver. You have a choice about whether or not to accept the non-essential cookies when you visit the Riiiver.
There are different types of Cookies, for example:
- Cookies served directly by us (“first party cookies”) and Cookies served on our behalf, for example by Ptmind and Google (“third party cookies”).
- Cookies which endure for different periods of time, including those that only last as long as your browser is open (referred to as “session cookies”). These are deleted automatically once you close your browser. Other cookies are “permanent cookies”, meaning that they survive after your browser is closed. For example, they recognise your device when you open your browser and browse the internet again.
