Cookie Policy

Scope of this Policy

This Policy relates to the use of cookies which are temporarily attached to the browser on your PC, tablet, smartphone or other equipment (“device”) when you use the APSR’s website apsr.org (“Website”). It does not cover the use of cookies by social networking services (Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, etc) which the APSR may use, neither does it cover the APSR Congress websites, webinar and workshop websites, the websites of our journals’ publishers, or any other third-party website.

Cookies we use, and why

The Website uses third-party utilities such as Google Analytics which use cookies to collect metrics for optimising the service they provide to you. The data collected is aggregated and does not include any personally-identifiable information.

The Website also uses temporary session cookies. For example, there’s a cookie to recognise when you are already logged in to access a members-only webpage, so you don’t need to keep logging in for each members-only page during the same session.

If we disclose any statistics collected by cookies, it will only be aggregated data and will not personally identify you.

Your control of cookie usage

Your use of the Website will be deemed to be your consent to use cookies on your device. However, most modern browsers allow you to reject all cookies, or to allow only cookies from websites you specify as “trusted”, or to accept only those cookies from those sites you are currently accessing. (For guidance in setting your browser, see the ‘help’ documentation provided by your browser, or contact your device‘s service provider.)

If your browser is set to reject cookies, then your use of the Website may be less efficient and some parts may not work at all.

If you have any questions or comments regarding this Cookie Policy, please contact us at info@apsr.org.
