Cookies Policy
In common with most other websites, we and our affiliates, third parties, and other partners (“partners”) use cookies and similar technologies for security purposes and to help us understand how people use CargoTrailerGuide.com (“Site”) so that we can keep improving our Site. We have created this Cookies Policy to provide you with clear and explicit information about the technologies that we use on CargoTrailerGuide.com, and your choices when it comes to these technologies.
If you choose to use our Site without blocking or disabling cookies or opting out of other technologies, you are agreeing to the use of cookies and similar technologies for the purpose we describe in this policy and our use (in accordance with this policy and the rest of our Privacy Policy) of any personal information that we collect using these technologies.

What are cookies?
Cookies are small text files that are placed on your computer by websites that you visit. These text files can be read by these websites and help to identify you when you return to a website. Cookies were designed for websites to remember information (such as items in a shopping cart) and enable our site or services to function. For example, cookies enable us to identify your device and enable you to easily share content on our site and services and help us serve relevant ads to you. Cookies can be “persistent” or “session” cookies. Persistent cookies remain on your computer when you have gone offline and will be read by our site when you return to the site, while session cookies are deleted as soon as you close your web browser.

CargoTrailerGuide.com Cookies
We use our own cookies to recognize you when you visit our website or use our apps. Any browser loading our Site will receive cookies from us. This means that you don’t have to log in each time you visit, and we can remember your preferences and settings. Unless you register with us, cookies do not contain any personally identifiable information about you and therefore cannot be used to identify you personally.
We also have implemented and use Google Analytics Display Advertising, specifically the Demographics and Interest Reporting feature to advertise online, sell advertising, and develop content.
We also may use Adobe Flash, which is another technology that can provide cookie-equivalent functionality. Adobe Flash is capable of storing information on your device (in a file outside of your browser).
Using Cookies for Advertising
Cookies used with ad technology such as web beacons, pixels, and anonymous ad network tags help us serve relevant ads to you more effectively. They also help us collect aggregated auditing, research, and reporting for advertisers. Pixels, which are invisible tags placed on our websites, help us understand and improve our service, show you ads, and know when content has been shown to you. Because our pages include advertisements, your web browser may request advertisements and web beacons directly from ad network servers, and these networks can view, edit, or set their own cookies, just as if you had requested a web page from their site.
Although we do not use cookies to track your browsing behavior on third-party sites, we do use aggregate data from third parties and data from sites and services you have used to show you relevant, interest-based advertising. We do not provide any personal information that we collect to advertisers.
In addition to our own cookies, we work with various reputable companies to help us analyze how our Site is used, and to optimize our Website and Apps to deliver the best possible experience.

Your browser can be set to warn you about attempts to place cookies on your computer or limit the type of cookies you allow. However, if you limit the ability of our Site to use cookies, you may limit your user experience because your visit to our Site will no longer be personalized to you. Login information may also not be saved as well as other customized settings. Other companies that advertise on our Site may also use cookies or other technologies and are subject to their own policies.
