Overview of Cookies and Similar Technologies
We use various technologies to collect device and usage data, including cookies and similar technologies.
Cookies. Cookies are small text files that are sent to and stored by your browser or device when you view or interact with our online services and ads. These cookies are then sent back unchanged to us each time you view or interact with our online services and ads in order for us to recognize your web browser or device. Cookies are used by us for a number of legitimate purposes, such as authenticating users; session tracking and storing information about specific users (e.g., website preferences, buying habits); analyzing traffic to our online services; tracking the number and frequency of ads that have been shown to specific browsers or devices; and related purposes.There are different types of cookies. Cookies served by the entity that operates the website you are using or viewing are called first party cookies (e.g., cookies served by INX when you view or interact with our online services are first party cookies).
Cookies served by entities that are not operating the website you are viewing or interacting with are called third party cookies (e.g., cookies served by our digital marketing partners when you view or interact with our online services, such as Google Analytics cookies, are third party cookies). Cookies may also endure for different periods of time.
Session cookies only last as long as your web browser is open, and are deleted automatically once you close your browser.
Other cookies are persistent cookies, meaning they survive after your browser is closed (e.g., to recognize your browser or device when you revisit our online services).
Pixel tags.
Pixel tags (also called web beacons, clear GIFs and action tags) are small blocks of code installed on our online services and ads for a number of legitimate purposes, such as to allow us to track activity on our online services (e.g., when e-mails are opened or content is viewed); allow our digital marketing partners to serve cookies on our online services and receive relevant device and usage data; and other purposes relating to the monitoring and analysis of the use and performance of our online services and ads.
Local storage.
Local storage refers generally to the storage of data locally on your browser or device using mechanisms such as browser web storage (e.g., HTML 5, Flash) and application data caches.
Software Development Kits.
Software development kits (also called SDKs) function like third-party cookies and pixel tags, but operate in the mobile app context where cookies and pixel tags cannot function as effectively. Instead, we may install pieces of code (the SDK) provided by our digital marketing partners (e.g., third-party advertising companies, ad networks and analytics providers) in our mobile apps in order for our digital marketing partners to collect and analyze relevant device and usage data.
Server logs.
Server logs refer to the servers used by us to receive and store device and usage data.In this Statement on Cookies and Similar Technologies, the cookies and other technologies described above are collectively referred to as "cookies and similar technologies."

PURPOSED AND USES OF COOKIES AND SIMILAR TECHNOLOGY
Cookies and similar technologies allow us and our digital marketing partners to collect and track device and usage data. The following table identifies and describes the different types of cookies and similar technologies used in connection with our online services and ads, and why we use them.
Cookie TypesPurposes and UsesOperations &System Management
Our online services utilize first- and third-party cookies and similar technologies that are necessary in order to operate our business and manage our online services and other systems, including authenticating and verifying users of our online services; preventing fraud and securing our online services; protecting intellectual property rights; fulfilling product and service orders, and delivering and billing for such products and services; complying with applicable laws and industry standards; and protecting our business and the safety of others.

Our online services utilize first- and third-party cookies and similar technologies to provide enhanced features and remember user preferences on our online services and ads, including identifying return users when visiting our online services (e.g., to prefill fields); keeping track of user preferences, interests and past items viewed or utilized (e.g., preferred language, saved items); and providing social plugins that allow users to interact with social media services (e.g., Facebook, Twitter) via our online services.
Analytics,Product Development & Market Research
Our online services utilize first- and third-party cookies and similar technologies for analytics, product development and market research purposes, including analyzing how individuals arrive at and engage with our online services and ads; tracking and measuring the performance and effectiveness of our online services and ads; optimizing the location of ads, features and other content on our online services and third party websites; statistical reporting in connection with activity on our online services and ads; analyzing user preferences and behaviors, and market characteristics and trends, in order to develop and improve our products, online services and ads; segmenting audiences to test features of our online services and ads; and conducting research about our consumers, products and online services.
Advertising & Targeting
Our online services utilize first- and third-party cookies and similar technologies to deliver, track and measure ads both on and off our online services, including ads relevant to your interests (e.g., ads based on your past interaction with our online services, ads based on predictions about your interests derived from your activities on different websites over time); and ads based on your location, demographics, or computer or device characteristics.
This includes tracking and measuring the reach and frequency of ads, and regulating the delivery of such ads (e.g., capping the number of times you see a particular ad).For example, we may use cookies and similar technologies to deliver relevant ads based on your location; or to group users that share a common interest into audience segments and deliver ads that may be of interest to users within a given segment; or to deliver our ads on third-party websites through a common form of online advertising known as "retargeting" or "remarketing." Retargeting works by serving ads on one website based on an individual's activities on a different website (e.g., if you view a product on our website, such as INXCure™ UV/EB Inks, you may later see ads for these inks when you visit a third-party website).
To do this, we allow our digital marketing partners to place their own third-party cookies when users view or interact with our online services, allowing these digital marketing partners to recognize users who have previously visited our online services. When these users visit a third-party website that includes features provided by our digital marketing partners (e.g., where our digital marketing partners have purchased ad space), these digital marketing partners can then recognize the users' interest in our products and services and deliver one of our ads on the third-party website.
