Cookies policy
Introduction
User trust is important to us, and therefore, at: www.noaharmon.com (hereinafter, the “Portal”) we are concerned about protecting your privacy. An important aspect of this is to provide you with as much information as possible about how we use your personal data, including how we use local data storage and similar technology.
What does local data storage, cookies and similar technology mean?
Local data storage involves storing different types of data locally on your device through your web browser. Locally stored data may, for example, contain user settings, information about how you navigate our websites, what web browser you use, what advertisements have been displayed, and similar behavior on websites with which we collaborate. Locally stored data may be used to personalize content and features on our services so that your visits are more convenient and meaningful. One method of local data storage is cookies. Cookies are small text files that are stored on your device (PC, mobile phone or tablet) that allow us to recognize your web browser. Cookies contain information primarily about your web browser and any activity that has occurred in it. In addition to local data storage, we may use other similar technology such as web beacons/pixel tags. This technology recognizes cookies and identifiers and allows third parties to set cookies on your device. Web beacons can be used to determine which advertisements should be displayed in your web browser. In this document, the term "local data storage" is used as a collective term for cookies, web beacons and other similar technology.
Why does the Portal use local data storage on its websites and apps?
We use local data storage for a number of purposes, such as: to allow us to perform our services; provide you with relevant, personalized content when you visit our websites; measure and analyze the traffic on our websites; improve our services; and target targeted advertising.
More details on these topics are provided below.
Who else uses local data storage in the Portal?
We use local data storage ourselves, and we allow our vendors to use it when providing their services to us. These providers are subject to data processor agreements, and are not permitted to use the data for purposes other than providing the service we have requested. In addition to our own use, we also offer third parties the opportunity to use data storage on your device when you visit our services. We have devised strict guidelines on how third parties may collect and use data relating to our visitors. The guidelines state that the data may only be used for clearly defined purposes.
Application areas for local data storage:
a) To deliver and adapt the services to your use.
Local data storage is required and necessary in order to enable you to use our services, such as information about your settings, which tells us how the services should be presented to your web browser. We also use local data storage to tailor our services to your use as best as possible. For example, to store settings for your preferred sounds, to store information about the best video quality available for your web browser and Internet speed, or to enable the use of special features, such as the option to store advertisements classifieds or retain previous searches and saved listings.
b) To analyze and improve our services.
We use various measurement tools that provide us with statistics and analysis related to our services. These tools allow us to recognize the web browser over time and find out if the user has visited the website before and if so, how often. These tools give us the ability to get an overview of how many unique users we have and how they use our services. We also use the information we have collected and analyzed to develop and improve our services and cooperative services at Schibsted Media Group; for example, finding out which services generate a lot of traffic or seeing if a service is performing optimally.
c) Our advertising.
We use local data storage in connection with advertising activities on the Portal. This allows us to know if and how often the user has seen an advertisement or a certain type of advertisement, and how long it has been since they saw it. We also use local data storage to build segments and target groups for marketing purposes and to target targeted advertisements.
The following link includes educational videos in video tutorial format in which it is explained, step by step, how to configure the privacy options of the most common browsers, social networks and mobile operating systems: We also use local data storage on other websites in connection with the advertising of the Portal when the user has visited other websites on which we advertise, as well as the local storage of data established by other actors. This provides us with information about, for example, which website the user visited before visiting our portals, and allows us to target our advertising based on this information. For example, we may show travel ads if the user recently visited an airline's website. The information we obtain through local data storage does not contain any directly identifiable data. We receive information about which pages you visited, but not about who the user is.
d) Third party advertising
As in other commercial websites, in the Portal services the user will also find advertisements provided by other actors. Most actors use local data storage. Local data storage is used to find cookies or anonymous identifiers on your device to find out which advertisements should be displayed or which advertisements have been displayed in your web browser. Local data storage is also used to measure the effect of ads by measuring how many users clicked on a specific ad and how many actually completed a purchase. We do not allow this data to be linked directly to the user. The Portal has the ability to read data from third-party cookies such as these. These companies may use local data storage to target advertisements on other websites based on your visit to the Portal.

How can I manage locally stored data?
You can adjust the settings in your web browser or use special programs that have been developed to manage cookies. The settings in your web browser usually show a list of all the cookies that have been stored to provide you with an overview and, if you wish, to delete unwanted cookies. Normally, you can indicate that you accept the storage of cookies from the websites you visit or from third parties affiliated with those websites. You can also choose to be notified each time a new cookie is stored. Guidance on how to do this in different web browsers is provided below. Your web browser normally stores cookies in a specific folder on your hard drive, so that you can also examine the content in more detail. The Portal has also prepared a list with the main forms of local data storage present on our website and more details about their purposes. The list is available below under 'Overview of the technology we use'. However, the cookies that are present on the website change frequently, and not all cookies are equally important. Therefore, the Portal will regularly update the list of which cookies are available. There are also services available that have been specially developed to provide users with an up-to-date list of cookies and other tracking mechanisms. See an example here www.ghostery.com or www.disconnect.me
Keep in mind that the deactivation of cookies on the Portal may prevent our websites from working properly. For example, you may have to log in each time you visit us, and you may receive random ads instead of those that are most appropriate based on your searches.
