Thank you for visiting starkware.co, the website of StarkWare Industries Ltd. (“StarkWare”, “we”, “us” or “our“). This Cookies Policy applies to starkware.co and all its subdomains.

Cookies
A cookie is a small piece of data (text file) that is placed automatically on your computer’s hard drive when you access certain websites. The cookie uniquely identifies your browser to the server. Cookies allow us to store information on the server in order to improve performance of our website, customize your experience on it, and to conduct site analysis and website performance reviews.
Web Beacons and Pixel Tags
On certain webpages or e-mails, we may utilize a common internet technology called a “Web beacon” (also known as a “pixel tag” or “clear GIF technology”). Web beacons help analyze the effectiveness of websites by measuring, for example, the number of visitors to a site or how many visitors clicked on key elements of a site.
Our Use of Tracking Technologies
On our website we may use two broad categories of web beacons, cookies, widgets and other tracking technology (collectively, “Tracking Technologies”): (a) First party – served directly by us, which we use to recognize your computer when it revisits our website; and (b) Third party – which are served by service providers or business partners on our website, and can be used by these third parties to recognize your computer when it visits other websites. Third party Tracking Technologies can be used for a variety of purposes, including site analytics, social media features and advertising. These third parties collect data directly from your browser and the processing of this data is subject to their own policies.
StarkWare collects information, which may include personal information, from your browser when you use our website through Tracking Technologies, including your: (i) IP-address; (ii) unique cookie identifier, cookie information and information on whether your device has software to access certain features; (iii) unique device identifier and device type; (iv) domain, browser type and language, (v) operating system and system settings; (vi) country and time zone; (vii) previously visited websites; (viii) information about your interaction with our website such as click behavior, purchases and indicated preferences; and (ix) access times and referring URLs.
We use Tracking Technologies to track usage of our website and to understand the preferences (such as country and language choices) of our customers, potential customers and other visitors to our website. This enables us to provide services to our customers and improve their online experience. We also use Tracking Technologies to obtain aggregate data about site traffic and site interaction, to identify trends and obtain statistics so that we can improve our website.
There are generally three categories of cookies used on our website:
- Functional:These cookies are necessary for basic functionality and are therefore always enabled. These include cookies that allow you to be remembered as you explore our website within a single session or, if you request, from session to session. These cookies can also be used for security and integrity reasons – for example, to detect violation of our policies and for support or security features.
- Performance:These cookies allow us to improve our website’s functionality by tracking usage. In some cases, these cookies improve the speed with which we can process your request and allow us to remember site preferences you have selected. Refusing these cookies may result in slow site performance and poorly-tailored recommendations.
- Targeting: These cookies (of third parties) collect information about your actions on our website and other websites and use it to build a profile of your interests in order to better tailor advertising to your interests, both within and beyond our website. In some cases, these cookies involve the processing of your personal information. Refusing these cookies may result in you seeing advertising that is not relevant to you.
If you do not wish to accept cookies, you can change your browser’s settings to automatically deny the storage of cookies or to inform you when a website wants to store cookies on your computer. Previously stored cookies can also be deleted through the browser. More information can be found through your browser’s support pages.
