On this website I collect and use information as described in my privacy policy. One of the ways I gather information is through the use of technology called "cookies." At Inverstopia.com, cookies are used for several purposes.
What is a cookie?
A cookie is a small amount of text that is stored in your browser (such as Google Chrome or Apple Safari) when you browse most websites.
What a cookie is NOT
A cookie is not a virus, a trojan, a worm, spam, spyware, or a pop-up window. It does not store sensitive personal information such as credit card numbers or bank details.
What information does a cookie store?
Cookies do not usually store sensitive information about you. The data they keep is technical in nature — such as your language preference, personalisation settings, or statistical information about your browsing. A website does not gain access to your personal data or files on your device through cookies.
