Intro
In the spirit of transparency, this Cookie Policy (“Policy”) provides detailed information about why, how, and
when we use cookies on our Site, Software, and/or Services, as defined in our Terms of Service.
What is a cookie?
A cookie is a small text file that is placed on your hard drive by a web page server. Cookies contain
information that can later be read by a web server in the domain that issued the cookie to you. Some of the
cookies will only be used if you use certain features or select certain preferences, and some cookies are
essential to the Site, Software, and/or Services, and will always be used. Web beacons, tags, and scripts may
be used in the Site or in emails to help us deliver cookies and count visits, understand usage and campaign
effectiveness, and determine whether an email has been opened and acted upon. We may receive reports based on
the use of these technologies by our service/analytics providers (for example, Google Analytics) on an
individual and aggregated basis.

cookie or to later disable cookies, you may still visit our Site, and use our Software or Services, but your

Types of cookies Barcode to PC uses
Many jurisdictions require or recommend that website operators inform users/visitors as to the nature of cookies
they utilize and, in certain circumstances, obtain the consent of their users to the placement of certain
cookies.
Each cookie used by Barcode to PC falls within one of the following categories:
-
Essential cookies
Essential cookies (First-Party Cookies) are sometimes called “strictly necessary,” as without them we
cannot provide many services that you need. For example, essential cookies help us to identify your
account and remember your preferences as you use our Site, Software, and/or Services. -
Analytics cookies
These cookies track information about your visits and usage of the Site, Software, and/or Services so
that we can make improvements and report our performance — for example, to analyze visitor and user
behavior so as to provide more relevant content or suggest certain activities. We might also use
analytics cookies to test new ads, pages, or features to see how users react to them. Google Analytics
is the main technology we currently use in this regard. To learn more about Google Analytics and your
privacy, visit the “How Google uses data when you use our partners’ sites or apps” page at
www.google.com/policies/privacy/partners/.

Functionality or preference cookies
During your visit to the Site, or while you use our Software or Services, cookies are used to remember
information you have entered or choices you make (such as your username, language, or your region).
They also store your preferences when personalizing the Site, Software, and/or Services to optimize
your use of Barcode to PC (for example, your preferred language). These preferences are remembered through
the
use of persistent cookies, and the next time you visit the Site or use our Software and/or Services,
you will not have to set them again. -
Targeting or advertising cookies
These Third-Party Cookies are placed by third-party advertising platforms or networks in order to
deliver ads and track ad performance, or enable advertising networks to deliver ads that may be
relevant to you based upon your activities (this is sometimes called “behavioral tracking” or
“targeted” advertising) on the Site. They may subsequently use information about your visit to target
you with advertising that you may be interested in on the Site and other websites. You can opt out of
interest-based targeting provided by participating ad servers through the Digital Advertising Alliance
(http://youradchoices.com). -

widgets, such as the ‘Share This’ button or interactive mini-programs that run on the Site. These
features may collect your IP address and which page you are visiting on the Site, as well as set a
cookie to enable the feature to function properly. Your interaction with these features is governed by
the privacy policy of the third-party company providing it. Here are some examples of third-party
social media features that we use, and their privacy policies:
