Our Privacy Policy explains how we collect and use information from and about you when you use MARA PHONES website and other MARA PHONES services. We have provided this Cookie Policy to tell you more about why we use cookies and other similar technologies we use, and your choices in relation to these technologies.
MARA PHONES uses cookies and other similar technologies such as web beacons to operate and improve our websites and offerings. A “cookie” is a small piece of data that is sent to your browser or device by websites, mobile apps, and advertisements that you can access or use. We also have e-mail tracking technologies to monitor our e-mail campaigns. This is to monitor whether the email has been opened or which emails were read.
Persistent cookies are a data file capable of providing website with user preferences, settings and information for future visits. These are stored on your device and allow user preferences to be remembered.
Session cookies are cookies that are erased when the user closes the web browser. The session cookie is stored in temporary memory and is not retained after the browser is closed. It allows users to be recognised within a website, so any changes in the pages or any item or data selection is remembered from page to page.
MARA PHONES cookies generally fall into one of the following categories:
a. Preferences. Cookies can remember your settings, your sign-in credentials, and language or browser preferences. Cookies remember your preferences each time you log on to a service which means that the user does not need to reset every time they visit the site.
b. Security. Our cookies may use these trace logs to help identify and prevent security risks. For example, we may use these trace logs to store information to prevent others from changing your password without your username and password.
c. Performance. Our cookies collect information which helps us understand the performance of the website and services on how it is used and help us provide information if you encounter any issues or error messages. We may use tracking logs to determine if you have interacted and visited with a certain page, or how much time you have spent on the website.

e. Advertising. Cookies help us to provide and deliver relevant and meaningful content and advertising by collecting information about your use of our services and to limit the number of times you see an advertisement on the website.

How can I manage Cookies
You can always manage or delete your cookies in your browser.

You may be able to opt-out from certain third-party advertising through third-party cookie management sites.
Web browser opt-out
Most web browsers are set to accept cookies by default. If you don’t want to allow, your browser may provide you with a set of tools to manage cookies. You can usually set your browser to refuse some cookies or all cookies. For example, some browsers give you the option to allow first-party cookies but block third-party cookies. So what is the difference between first-party and third-party cookies?
A “first-party” cookie is served by the page or domain that you are visiting. So for example, when you visit our website and we serve a cookie for purposes of remembering your settings that is a first-party cookie.
A “third-party” cookie is served by a company that doesn’t operate the page or domain you are visiting. So for example, when you visit our website and Google serves a cookie on MARA PHONES webpages for MARA PHONE’s analytics that is a third-party cookie.
You may also be able to remove cookies from your browser. Your ability to manage cookies through a mobile browser, however, may be limited. For more information about how to manage your cookie settings, please follow the instructions provided by your browser which are usually located within the “Help,” “Tools,” or “Edit” settings.
