This Cookies Notice explains how we, Gm Echo Clicks Ltd (Sonar, we, us, and our) uses cookies and similar technologies to recognise you when you visit our website and platform.

It explains what these technologies are and why we use them, as well as your rights to control our use of them.

In some cases we may use cookies to collect Personal Data, or that becomes Personal Data if we combine it with other information.

What are cookies?

Certain cookies expire after different periods and triggers. Generally, cookies are either:

• Session Cookies: These are temporary cookies that expire when you close your browser. They help maintain your session during your visit.
• Persistent Cookies: These cookies remain on your device for a specified period. They remember your preferences across visits.

Why do we use cookies?

We use first- and third-party cookies that are required for technical reasons in order for our site and/or platform to operate, and we refer to these as “essential” or “strictly necessary” cookies.

Your choice

Before using any cookies (except strictly necessary ones), we will obtain your consent and permit you to manage cookie preferences through browser settings or a cookie preference manager. We describe the different categories of cookies below. At this time, we only use strictly necessary cookies.

Different types of cookies

Necessary cookies

These cookies are strictly necessary to provide you with Services available through our website and/or platform and to use some of its features, such as access to secure areas. These cookies are essential for the website to function properly. They enable basic features such as page navigation.

Analytics cookies

These cookies are used to enhance the performance and functionality of our site and/or Platform but are non-essential to their use. However, without these cookies, certain functionality (like videos) may become unavailable. These cookies enhance your experience for example by remembering your preferences (e.g., language, region) and providing personalised features. These cookies may also be used to collect anonymous data about how visitors use our website, which helps improve site performance and optimise content.

Advertising cookies

These cookies are used to make advertising messages more relevant to a user. They perform functions like preventing the same ad from continuously reappearing, ensuring that ads are properly displayed for advertisers, and in some cases selecting advertisements that are based on a user’s interests. These cookies track browsing habits and allow businesses to show users relevant ads.

What about other tracking technologies, like web beacons?

Cookies are not the only way to recognize or track visitors to a website. Other, similar technologies from time to time, like web beacons (sometimes called “tracking pixels” or “clear gifs”) perform similar functions. These are tiny graphics files that contain a unique identifier that enables us to recognize when someone has visited a site and/or platform or opened an email including them. This allows site operators, for example, to monitor the traffic patterns of users from one page within a website to another, to deliver or communicate with cookies, to understand whether the user has come to the website from an online advertisement displayed on a third-party website, to improve site performance, and to measure the success of email marketing campaigns. In many instances, these technologies are reliant on cookies to function properly, and so declining cookies will impair their functioning.

How often will you update this Cookies Notice?

We may update this Cookies Notice from time to time in order to reflect, for example, changes to the cookies we use or for other operational, legal, or regulatory reasons. Please therefore revisit this Cookies Notice regularly to stay informed about our use of cookies and related technologies.
