Introduction
Like most websites, the MSP website uses cookies. ''Cookies'' are small text files that websites save onto your device via your web browser. They've been around since the mid–1990's and are one of the most widely used technologies on the internet. Many essential website functions rely on cookies. For example, you can't shop online without them as they are used to remember what you add to the shopping basket.
Cookie Principles
This cookie policy describes how MSP uses cookies on its website. In this cookie policy when we refer to MSP, metrology software products ltd, us, we or our, we mean MSP or companies which are responsible for providing the website.
Your acknowledgement
By continuing to use our website, you accept that cookies may be set on your device, as outlined in this complete cookie policy.
How we use cookies
Many cookies on our website perform essential functions; for example when you log into your MSP account, they remember the information in your account.
Other cookies are not essential, but they help us understand how our website is used by visitors, so that we can improve what we do online. We use web analytics tools for this. They look at things like how long our website takes to load, how they are used, and what information visitors to our site looks at most. They also help identify any parts of our websites that aren't working as well as they should – so we can fix things and make our websites better for you and other users.
A third type of cookie lets us know how well our online advertising works, and where we should place our online advertisements. These cookies let us know if one of our advertisements on another website like Google or Yahoo has sent a visitor to the MSP website.
We may also use cookies to help us reach people who are more interested in the MSP products. So if you visit the MSP website, you may see our advertisements on other sites. This is known as remarketing or behavioural advertising.
We do not link information we have collected from cookies with any record we may have of you as a customer of MSP.
Types of cookies used by MSP
Cookies fall into two general categories: first party cookies (which we set) and third party cookies (which are set by third parties).
First Party Cookies
These cookies are set by us at MSP. For the most part, they enable essential functionality on our website. They also include our own web analytic cookies, which we use to understand how our website is viewed by visitors so that we can improve it.
Third Party Cookies
Third party cookies are not set by MSP, but by selected third parties with whom we work. Some of these third party cookies enable useful services, for example online questionnaires. Others may be set by advertising networks we work with to keep track of your browsing activities, so that they can place our online advertisements in the most appropriate places. In the section 'managing cookies', we explain how you can change your settings so that third parties (including advertisers) know what you do not want to be tracked.
Changes to this cookie policy
We will review and update this cookie policy at least once a year and will note the date it was last updated below.
If we change our cookie policy, we will post the details of the changes below. If we have your e-mail address, we may also e-mail you with information on those changes. If we need to, we will also ask you to confirm that you are happy with those changes.
We stand behind the commitments we have made. We will never change our policies and practices in a way that will offer less protection for personal information that we already have about you without your consent.
