COOKIE POLICY Effective date: May 25, 2018 The websites of The Linux Foundation and its open source projects (collectively, the “Sites”) use cookies, in combination with local storage objects, and similar devices (collectively, “cookies” unless otherwise noted) to distinguish you from other users of the Sites. This helps us provide you with a good experience, improve our service while you use the Sites. This cookie policy (“Cookie Policy”) describes the types of the cookies we use on the Sites and our purposes for using them. If you have questions about this Cookie Policy, please contact us at systems.spain@blom.no. For a more complete description and a list of third party cookies that we currently use on the Sites, please see below.

Your Consent You consent to placement of cookies on your computer by us and our third party service providers.

A cookie is a small file of letters and numbers that we store on your browser or the hard drive of your computer. Unless you have adjusted your browser setting so that it will refuse cookies, our system will issue cookies as soon as you visit the Sites. Key Concepts First and third-party cookies: whether a cookie is 'first' or 'third' party refers to the domain placing the cookie. First-party cookies are those set by a website that is being visited by the user at the time (e.g., cookies placed by www.blomurbex.com). Third-party cookies are cookies that are set by a domain other than that of the website being visited by the user. If a user visits a website and another entity sets a cookie through that website, this would be a third-party cookie. Persistent cookies: these cookies remain on a user's device for the period of time specified in the cookie. They are activated each time that the user visits the website that created that particular cookie. Session cookies: these cookies allow website operators to link the actions of a user during a browser session. A browser session starts when a user opens the browser window and finishes when they close the browser window. Session cookies are created temporarily. Once you close the browser, all session cookies are deleted. How to Delete and Block our Cookies Most web browsers allow some control of most cookies through the browser settings. However, if you use your browser settings to block all cookies (including essential cookies), you may not be able to access all or parts of the Sites. Unless you have adjusted your browser setting so that it will refuse cookies, our system will issue cookies as soon as you visit the Sites. Changing your Cookie Settings.
