We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time in order to reflect, for example, changes to the cookies we use or for other operational, legal or regulatory reasons. Please therefore re-visit this Cookie Policy regularly to stay informed about our use of cookies and similar technologies. The date at the top of this Cookie Policy indicates when it was last updated.

WHAT IS A COOKIE?

Cookies are a standard feature of websites that allow us to collect certain information from your browser or device when you visit our Sites. In relation to the use of cookies by our partners and clients, note that we do not have access or control over these cookies.

WHAT COOKIES DO WE USE?

We use a variety of cookies on the Musk Report Sites for several reasons. We also may use web logs, pixel tags, or web beacons, which are pieces of code that may be used to read and place cookies on a web browser, to collect information about how you interact with websites or advertisements.

The sections below describe the types of cookies most frequently used by Musk Report on the Sites and explain their use.

Essential Cookies

We use cookies that are essential to making the Sites work. These types of cookies enable you to move around the Sites and use their features. For example, we may use cookies to record a user login, manage user sessions, authenticate users of our management apps, or adjust settings and functionality on the Sites. Without these cookies, we may not be able to provide the services that are necessary for you to be able to use the Sites.

Cookie Names	Purpose
__cfduid	This cookie is used to identify individual clients behind a shared IP address and apply security settings on a per-client basis. For example, if a visitor is in a coffee shop where there may be several infected machines, but the specific visitor's machine is trusted (for example, because they completed a challenge within your Challenge Passage period), the cookie allows our security system to identify that client and not challenge them again. It does not correspond to any user ID in our web application, and does not store any personally identifiable information.
in_ca	This indicates you are in California, as inferred from your IP address. California residents are shown an alternate version of the Musk Report including all required notices.
optout	This indicates you exercised your right to opt out of "sale" of your information.
