Website owners use cookies for a variety of reasons that can include enabling their websites to work (or work more efficiently), providing personalized content, and advertising, and creating website analytics.

Cookies set by the website or app owner (in this case, ComplyKEY) are called ‘first-party cookies’. Only ComplyKEY can access the first-party cookies we set. Cookies by parties other than the website or app owner are called ‘third-party cookies’. Third-party cookies often enable third-party features or functionality to be provided on or through the website or app (e.g., like advertising, interactive content, and social sharing). The parties that set these third-party cookies can recognize your device both when it visits the website in question and when it visits other websites that have partnered with them.
