Cookie Policy
This Cookie Policy explains how Sustainable TDP uses cookies and similar technologies on our website.
1. What Are Cookies
Cookies are small text files that are stored on your computer or mobile device when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites work more efficiently and provide information to the owners of the site.
Cookies allow a website to recognize your device and remember certain information about your visit, such as your preferences and settings. This can make your next visit easier and the site more useful to you.
2. How We Use Cookies
We use cookies and similar tracking technologies for various purposes, including:
- Essential Cookies: These cookies are necessary for the website to function properly. They enable basic functions like page navigation and access to secure areas of the website. The website cannot function properly without these cookies.
- Analytical/Performance Cookies: These cookies allow us to recognize and count the number of visitors and see how visitors move around our website when they are using it. This helps us improve how our website works, for example, by ensuring that users are finding what they are looking for easily.
- Functionality Cookies: These cookies enable the website to provide enhanced functionality and personalization. They may be set by us or by third-party providers whose services we have added to our pages.
- Targeting/Advertising Cookies: These cookies record your visit to our website, the pages you have visited, and the links you have followed. We use this information to make our website and the advertising displayed on it more relevant to your interests.
3. Types of Cookies We Use
First-Party Cookies
First-party cookies are set by the website you are visiting. Only that website can read them. In addition, a website might potentially use external services, which also set their own cookies, known as third-party cookies.
Persistent Cookies
Persistent cookies are cookies saved on your computer and that are not deleted automatically when you quit your browser, unlike a session cookie, which is deleted when you quit your browser. We use persistent cookies to remember your preferences for the next time you visit our website, and to measure how you use our website so we can improve it.
Session Cookies
Session cookies are temporary and expire once you close your browser (or once your session ends). They are used to identify you during a single browsing session, such as when you log into a website.

Some cookies and similar technologies on our website are served by third parties. These third parties may use cookies, alone or in conjunction with web beacons or other tracking technologies, to collect information about you when you use our website.
The third-party services we use include:
- Google Analytics: We use Google Analytics to help us understand how our customers use the site. You can read more about how Google uses your Personal Information here.

- Embedded Content: Our website may include videos from YouTube and other embedded content. These websites may collect data about you, use cookies, embed additional third-party tracking, and monitor your interaction with that embedded content.
5. Managing Cookies
Most web browsers allow you to control cookies through their settings preferences. However, if you limit the ability of websites to set cookies, you may worsen your overall user experience since it will no longer be personalized to you. It may also stop you from saving customized settings like login information.
How to Delete and Block Cookies
You can block cookies by activating the setting on your browser that allows you to refuse the setting of all or some cookies. However, if you use your browser settings to block all cookies (including essential cookies), you may not be able to access all or parts of our site.
Here are links to instructions for managing cookies in common web browsers:
6. Do Not Track Signals
Some web browsers may transmit "Do Not Track" signals to the websites and other online services with which they communicate. There is no standard that governs what, if anything, websites should do when they receive these signals. We currently do not take action in response to these signals. If and when a standard is established, we may revise our policy on responding to these signals.
7. Changes to This Cookie Policy
We may update our Cookie Policy from time to time. We will notify you of any changes by posting the new Cookie Policy on this page and updating the "Last Updated" date.
You are advised to review this Cookie Policy periodically for any changes. Changes to this Cookie Policy are effective when they are posted on this page.
