The use of "cookies" helps websites recognize the devices of Users and Customers the next time they visit them, and in some cases, it is also essential for their operation.

HOW DO WE USE THEM?

KBAI Research may, eventually, use two major categories of «cookies»: «cookies» within the scope of online sites and «cookies» within the scope of direct electronic communication channels, being always, in any of the categories, the respective deactivation guaranteed by the Users or Customers.

KBAI Research uses «cookies» on its websites to improve the performance and browsing experience of Users and Customers, increasing, on the one hand, the speed and efficiency of response and, on the other, eliminating the need for repeatedly entering the same information.

The «cookies» used by KBAI Research, in all its channels, do not collect personal information that allows the identification of Users or Customers, saving only generic information, namely the form or geographic location of access and the way they use the channels, among others. «Cookies» only retain information related to the preferences of Users and Customers; no personal identifiers are recorded.

KBAI Research, within the scope of direct electronic communication channels, may also use «cookies» to open the different electronic communications sent, such as "newsletters" and electronic mail, for statistical purposes - allowing to know if these communications are open and check clicks via links or advertisements within those communications.

(i) Persistent «Cookies» - cookies that are stored on the devices used to access the channels (computers, mobile phones, etc.), at the level of the computer application used to browse the Internet ("browser"), and are always used that Users or Customers visit any channel again - in general, they are used to direct navigation according to the interests of the User or Customer, allowing KBAI Research to provide a more personalized service;
