b. Use of
Cookies
Zadok University may use cookies to personalize or enhance your user experience. A cookie is a small text file that is
placed on your hard disk by a Web page server.
Cookies cannot be used to run programs or deliver viruses to your
computer. Cookies are uniquely
assigned to you, and can only be read by a Web Server in the domain that
issued the cookie to you.
One
of the primary purposes of cookies is to provide a convenience feature to
save you time. For example, if
you personalize a web page, or navigate within a site, a cookie helps the
site to recall your specific information on subsequent visits. Hence, this simplifies the process of
delivering relevant content and eases site navigation by providing and saving
your preferences and login information as well as providing personalized
functionality..

partner companies, but does not allow other companies to place cookies on our

merging into zu-edu.org a site that relies on third-party cookies).

have the ability to accept or decline cookies.
Most Web browsers automatically accept cookies, but you can usually
modify your browser setting to decline cookies. If you reject cookies by
changing your browser settings then be aware that this may disable some of

4. Use of Web Beacons or GIF files
zu-edu.org Web pages may contain electronic images known as Web
beacons – sometimes also called single-pixel gifs – that allow Zadok University to count users who have visited those pages and to deliver
co-branded services. Zadok University may include Web beacons in promotional e-mail messages or
newsletters in order to determine whether messages have been opened and acted
upon.
Some
of these Web beacons may be placed by third party service providers to help
determine the effectiveness of our advertising campaigns or email
communications. These Web
beacons may be used by these service providers to place a persistent cookie
on your computer. This allows
the service provider to recognize your computer each time you visit certain
pages or emails and compile anonymous information in relation to those page
views, which in turn enables us and our service providers to learn which
advertisements and emails bring you to our website and how you use the site. Zadok University prohibits Web
beacons from being used to collect or access your personal information.
