Cookies, pixel tags, and similar technologies (collectively "cookies") are files containing small amounts of information which are downloaded to any internet-enabled device — such as your computer, smartphone, or tablet — when you visit a website.
Cookies are then sent back to the originating website on each subsequent visit, or to another website that recognises that cookie. Cookies perform many useful functions, such as remembering your preferences, generally improving your online experience, and helping us offer you the best products and services.
There are many types of cookies. They all work in the same way but have minor differences. For a detailed list, please refer to the relevant section below.
We use cookies to make our websites easier to use, to deliver a personalised experience, and to better tailor our products, services, and websites to your interests and needs. Cookies help speed up your future activities and your experience on our websites.
The cookies you consent to are also used to collect your personal data, which we then profile into audiences so that we can deliver targeted advertising tailored to your interests and limit the number of times you see an advertisement. For more detailed information about our profiling activities for advertising, please see our Privacy Notice.
We also insert cookies in emails and newsletters to improve our content and advertising.
Lastly, we use cookies to compile anonymous, aggregated statistics that help us understand how people use our websites, improve their structure and content, and measure the effectiveness of advertising campaigns on our and non-Dateline Communications websites.
There are several ways to manage your cookies:
Most internet browsers are initially set up to automatically accept cookies. If you do not want our websites to store cookies on your device, you can change your browser settings so that you receive a warning before certain cookies are stored. You can also adjust your settings so that your browser refuses most cookies, or only certain cookies from third parties. You can withdraw your consent by deleting cookies that have already been stored.
If you disable the cookies we use, this may impact your experience — for example, you may not be able to visit certain areas of a website, or you may not receive personalised information.
If you use different devices to access our websites (computer, smartphone, tablet), you will need to ensure that each browser on each device is adjusted to suit your cookie preferences. The procedures differ from browser to browser; if necessary, use the help function on your browser. User guides are available for Internet Explorer, Mozilla Firefox, Google Chrome, Safari, and Opera.
There are also software products available that can manage cookies for you. To evaluate the cookies used on our websites, you can use www.ghostery.com. To find out more about cookies, including how to see what cookies have been set and how to manage and delete them, visit www.allaboutcookies.org.
You can disable our or third-party cookies using our cookie consent tool. Switching off tracking cookies ensures that Dateline Communications Private Limited will no longer track your online behaviour. However, please note that opting out of tracking cookies does not necessarily mean you will receive less advertising — it means the advertising you receive will not be tailored to your interests.
The cookies used on our websites may be generally categorised as follows:
Essential to make our websites work correctly; they enable you to move around our websites and use our features. Without these cookies, certain services cannot be provided. Examples include remembering previous actions (such as entered text) when navigating back to a page in the same session. Do these cookies identify me? No — they do not identify you as an individual. If you do not accept them, it may affect the performance of the website or parts of it.
Collect information about how you use our websites — for instance, which pages you visit most often, time spent, and any issues encountered (such as error messages). They may also let affiliates know if you came to one of our websites from an affiliate. This helps us improve performance. Do these cookies identify me? No — all information collected is aggregated and therefore anonymous, and is only used to improve how a website works.
Allow our websites to remember the choices you make (such as your username, language, or region) to provide a more personalised experience. They may also remember changes you have made to text size, fonts, and other customisable parts of pages, and enable you to engage with social tools. Do these cookies identify me? The information they collect may include personal data you have disclosed. If you do not accept them, it may affect the functionality of the website and restrict access to content.

These cookies may also be linked to site functionality provided by third parties. Do these cookies identify me? Most of these cookies track via your Device ID or IP address and therefore may collect personal data.
A number of partners may set cookies on your device on our behalf when you visit our websites, to deliver tailored advertising within their domains (for example, Facebook and Google DoubleClick). We also use partners to provide digital experiences and functionality (for example, an embedded YouTube video). In some cases you may be served cookies from third parties even if you have declined our cookies, because you have given consent directly to those third parties; in such cases, you should withdraw your consent on the relevant third-party website. Do these cookies identify me? Depending on the third party, the information collected may include personal data.
