Digital Construction Technologies Cookie Policy

Last Updated: May 23, 2019

By using or accessing Digital Construction Technologies websites (“Site”), you agree to Digital Construction Technologies use of Cookies as outlined below. All references to Job Seeker and Employer are defined as provided for in the Employtec Privacy Policy.

For the purposes of this Cookie Policy, “Digital Construction Technology” or “we” or “DCT” means Digital Construction Technology.


Introduction:

This Cookie policy helps to explain the occasions when and why cookies may be sent to visitors to the Site (referred to in this policy as “we”, “us” or “our”).


1. What is a cookie?

An HTTP cookie (also called web cookie, Internet cookie, browser cookie, or simply cookie) is a small piece of data sent from a website and stored on the user's computer by the user's web browser while the user is browsing. Cookies were designed to be a reliable mechanism for websites to remember stateful information (such as items added in the shopping cart in an online store) or to record the user's browsing activity (including clicking particular buttons, logging in, or recording which pages were visited in the past). They can also be used to remember arbitrary pieces of information that the user previously entered into form fields such as names, addresses, passwords, and credit card numbers.

Session Cookies are temporary cookies that remain in the cookie file of your browser until you leave the Site.

Other kinds of cookies perform essential functions in the modern web. Perhaps most importantly, authentication cookies are the most common method used by web servers to know whether the user is logged in or not, and which account they are logged in with. Without such a mechanism, the site would not know whether to send a page containing sensitive information, or require the user to authenticate themselves by logging in. With this in mind we may also employ cookies so that we remember your computer when it is used to return to the Site to help customize your Digital Construction Technology web experience. The security of an authentication cookie generally depends on the security of the issuing website and the user's web browser, and on whether the cookie data is encrypted.

European law requires that all websites targeting European Union member states gain "informed consent" from users before storing non-essential cookies on their device.
