We use Cookies (as defined below) to respond best to each user of the Sites, to keep track of the products and services you request as a user of the Sites, to assist with the downloading or uploading of documents and other materials to and from the Sites, to create a more personalized user experience, for standard Site traffic analysis, and to improve Site content and display.

Cookies

What are Cookies?

A Cookie is a small text file that is stored on your computer when visiting a website. This text file stores information that can be read by the website when visiting it again later. Cookies can be installed by the server of the website you visit or by partners of that website. A website’s server can only read the Cookies it has installed itself and has no access to other information found in your computer or mobile device. Cookies are stored in a folder of your browser on your computer or mobile device. Cookies generally make the interaction between the visitor and the website faster and easier and help the visitor navigate between the different parts of a website. Some of these Cookies are necessary because otherwise the site is unable to function properly. Other Cookies are convenient for the visitor: they remember your username in a secure way as well as your language preferences, for example. Cookies mean that you do not need to fill out the same information each time you visit a website.

Where do Cookies come from?

Based on the origin of Cookies, we make a distinction between first-party and third-party Cookies.

First-party Cookies

First-party Cookies are direct Cookies that we manage ourselves. They are specific to the Site. The Site creates and places the Cookies in order to function properly, for example.

Third-party Cookies

Third-party Cookies are Cookies that are managed or placed by a third party and not by OneSpan. This happens during your visit or use of our Sites. Third-party Cookies therefore cause certain data to be sent to third parties through your visit to or use of a Site. These are, for example, social media Cookies or Cookies from advertisers, which allow you to see advertisements. Although we do not manage or place these Cookies ourselves, we attempt to ensure that the placement of these Cookies by third parties via our platforms is as controlled as possible.

How does OneSpan use Cookies?

OneSpan uses Cookies to help us provide you with a better user experience tailored to your personal preferences. By using Cookies, we make sure that you do not receive or need to enter the same information every single time you visit a OneSpan Site. Cookies are also used to optimize the performance of the Site. The following different kinds of Cookies are used on our Sites:

  • Necessary Cookies
  • Functional Cookies
  • Performance Cookies
  • Advertisement Cookies
  • Recommendation Cookies
  • Social Media Cookies

Necessary Cookies

These Cookies are indispensable for visiting our Sites and using certain parts of the Sites. For instance, they allow you to navigate between the different parts of a Site and to fill in forms.

We use Necessary Cookies to provide the following benefits, among others:

  • Remember information that you enter or indicate on the various pages. This way, you do generally do not have to fill in or indicate all your data or preferences again.
  • Save settings for an optimal video display, such as the desired buffer size and the resolution data of your screen.
  • Read out your browser settings for an optimal display of our Site on your screen.
  • Load the Site evenly, so that it remains accessible at all times during your visit.

No permission is required for the use of Necessary Cookies, and they cannot be disabled.

Functional Cookies

Functional Cookies are Cookies that make it easier for our websites to work, make them more pleasant for visitors, and ensure that you have a more personalized browsing experience. For example, these Cookies can remember your language choice and business type.

Performance Cookies

We use performance Cookies to obtain information about visitors’ use of our Sites and in order to improve the content of our Sites, adapt them to the wishes of visitors, and make them more user-friendly. For instance, there is a Cookie that counts the number of unique visitors to our Sites, and a Cookie that keeps track of the most popular pages within our Sites.

Performance Cookies are also called statistical Cookies. They collect general information about how our Sites are used. We may perform statistical analyses of the information we obtain in this way, including to answer questions such as, How did you end up on our webpage? Which of our (mobile) applications do you spend most of your time on? Results of these statistical analyses help us make the structure, navigation and content of our online services more user-friendly. We also use this data to report on the performance of our Sites.

Advertisement Cookies

Advertisement Cookies track your browsing behavior on our Sites and your use of the Sites to build your user profile. This profile is then used to show you advertisements that match your personal interests.

Personal identification data such as your name or address which you have entered in your OneSpan profile, for example, will not be used for this purpose. We will ask for your permission to display customized ads on our Sites through the Cookie settings that appear on your screen when you use our online services. You can also revoke your consent using the same settings at any time.

For clarity, even if you have not given your consent to see customized ads on our Sites, you will still see or hear advertisements on our Sites, but the advertising will be less relevant, because it will not be adapted to your likely interests.

We use Google Analytics to help us monitor Site traffic (i.e. number of visitors, the pages they visit and the length of time spent on the Sites). We may also use third party cookies to help us with market research, revenue tracking, improving site functionality (Eloqua) and provide support assistance on the Sites (Desk.com).

Recommendation Cookies

Recommendation Cookies - just like advertising Cookies - follow your browsing behavior to create your user profile. That profile is then used to give you an online experience that matches your interests. These Cookies tell us something about your use of our Sites so that we can make more targeted recommendations and suggestions. Furthermore, these Cookies help ensure that the information you have already viewed do not appear as suggestions again. In this way, we hope to bring you into contact with new information that you might find interesting.
