Redbird Flight Simulations makes use of cookies and other tracking technologies on our company websites and our online account management functions. This is a brief explanation of the cookies and other tracking technologies used.
Cookies
Cookies are small, usually randomly encoded, text files that help you navigate through a website. They are generated on the sites that you visit, as well as by third-parties that websites work with, to manage key elements of their business-user functionality. In most cases they do not involve or use personal information in any way.
Cookies are used extensively online and have become part of the fabric and make-up of what has made the internet work effectively for consumers and businesses. Without cookies, many areas of functionality (for example, user logins, shopping baskets, and other customization features) would not work as expected.
Further information on cookies can be found at the EU Internet Handbook or AllAboutCookies.org.
Cookie types
Session cookies
Session cookies are temporary cookies that are not stored on your computer or mobile device. They are used as part of the login, authentication, and session management flows of our websites. Certain session cookies are also used to understand, for example, if a user interacting with our company website is a new visitor or a visitor returning as part of the same browsing session. These session cookies are erased when you close your browser, or after extended inactivity.
Persistent cookies
Persistent cookies are those placed on your computer or mobile device for a pre-determined length of time when you visit our websites. They are used to understand (through Google Analytics or HubSpot services) what areas of our websites are most popular, and how customers and users engage with them. We also use persistent cookies to identify returning visitors and tailor the content that they see based on their interaction with us.
Cookie management
You have the ability to accept or decline the use of cookies. Most web browsers automatically accept cookies, but you can usually modify your browser setting to decline all cookies, if you prefer. Alternatively, many web browsers can be configured to notify you each time a cookie is tendered, and permit you to accept or decline them on an individual basis or on a site-by-site basis. If you choose to decline cookies from Redbird's websites, you may experience some unexpected behaviours.
Other tracking technologies
Other tracking technologies are used on our websites. These are primarily used to understand if customers or users are interacting with any marketing-type emails sent from our systems. Examples include:
- Flash Locally Stored Objects (eg ‘Flash’ cookies) – these follow the same principle as normal standard cookies in that they allow information to be stored on a user’s machine.
- Transparent GIF or web beacons- these mechanisms can be used to deliver a cookie to your browser. They can also be used in email marketing to identify to the sender if an email has been opened.
Advertising
We partner with third-party ad networks to either display advertising on the Service or to manage our advertising on other sites. Our ad network partners use cookies and Web beacons to collect information about your activities on this and other websites to provide you targeted advertising based upon your interests. If you wish to not have this information used for the purpose of serving you targeted ads, you may opt-out by clicking here: http://preferences.truste.com (or if located in the European Union, by clicking here: http://www.youronlinechoices.eu). Please note this does not opt you out of being served advertising. You will continue to receive generic ads.
