Cookie Policy

1. What are cookies?

Cookies are small text files placed on your computer or device as you browse the Internet. Cookies can be used to collect, store and share bits of information about your activities across websites, including on F3. They also allow us to remember things about your visit to F3, such as your preferred language and other choices/settings and generally make the site easier for you to use.

F3 uses both session cookies and persistent cookies. A session cookie is used to identify a particular visit to our site. These cookies expire after a short time or when you close your web browser after using our services. We use these cookies to identify you during a single browsing session, such as when you log into F3. A persistent cookie will remain on your devices for a set period of time specified in the cookie. We use these cookies where we need to identify you over a longer period of time. For example, we would use a persistent cookie if you asked that we keep you signed in.

2. Why does F3 use cookies and similar technologies?

F3 uses cookies and similar technologies, such as web beacons or pixel tags, to deliver, measure, and improve our services in various ways.
