Cookies at SCAtoday.net

SCAtoday.net uses cookies as a part of its technical design. A "cookie" is a small quantity of data that is sent to a browser by a server, and which is stored either temporarily or permanently on your local computers.A cookie is not a program and therefore cannot contain malicious software such as viruses. Cookies are always associated with the domain of the server that sends them.

Our site uses cookies to allow users to navigate between pages and remember registrations. SCAtoday.net is committed to not using "cross-domain" cookies, that is, cookies sent or retrieved by other servers for advertising purposes. Cookies created and used by SCAtoday.net will be used solely by this site to support personalized features and will not be used for marketing purposes.

Some banner advertising companies use their cookies to track your surfing across multiple sites among their affiliates. This is accomplished by having the banner graphic actually be fetched from their server, not from the web site you intended to visit. You can (with most browsers) configure your computer to automatically reject such cookies. In any case, SCAtoday.net emphatically does not use this kind of cookie anywhere on the site.

It is the policy of SCAtoday.net to make the site work as much as possible without cookies enabled, but for some features, this is not practical. Users may choose to configure their browsers to disable cookies, but may not be able to take advantage of the personalized features of the site.
