Please check back from time to time for updates to this Cookie Policy.

This cookie policy is designed to help you understand how many Intuit group companies (“Intuit”) use cookies and similar technologies (“Cookies”), and how you can manage these Cookies. Intuit, along with Intuit’s authorized third-party partners and service providers may make use of Cookies on our websites, products, mobile apps, co-branded offerings and other services such as emails (collectively, “Services”) when you use our Services.

What are Cookies

A ‘Cookie’ is a small file which is created by a website and stored on your device. Often Cookies contain a string of numbers and letters that uniquely identifies your device, but can contain other information. Cookies serve many different purposes, including to help remember your preferences or allow our Services to function.

There are different types of Cookies:

• Cookies are “persistent”, “permanent” or “session”:

  • Persistent and permanent Cookies remain on your device even after you have gone offline. These Cookies will remain on your device until you manually delete them or until your browser deletes them based on the duration specified in the Cookie file itself.
  • Session Cookies are deleted as soon as you close your web browser.

• Cookies can also be “first-party” or “third-party”:

  • First-party Cookies are Cookies that are placed by Intuit or a third party on our behalf.
  • Third-party Cookies are placed by our partners, vendors and other third parties. We do not control the collection or further use of data by third parties using third-party Cookies.

Web beacons (also known as pixel tags or clear GIFs) are small graphic images that are used in connection with the provision of our Services and which typically work in conjunction with Cookies to track the use of an online service by its users. For example, when we send you emails, web beacons allow us to track if you opened the emails and clicked links to measure campaign performance and improve features.

Similar technologies are technologies which enable the entity using it to track your user behavior. This can be done by HTML5 Local Storage, pixels, tags, Flash Cookies (also known as “local shared objects” or “LSOs”), and other web application software methods, all of which store information in your browser or device. We may employ Flash Cookies in certain situations where we use Flash to provide some content such as video clips or animation.

How we use Cookies

• We classify Cookies according to whether they are “Essential”, “Functional”, "Analytics”, or “Advertising”, depending on the function that the Cookies serve in connection with our Services.

• Essential: These Cookies are required to provide you with the services and features available through our site. Because these Cookies are necessary to deliver the site, they cannot be turned off.

• Functional: These Cookies are used to enhance the functionality of the site. They help us to customize the site and application (where applicable) for you in order to enhance your experience. Although important, these Cookies are not required for your use of the site. Without these Cookies, certain functionality may become unavailable.

• Analytics: These Cookies collect information to help us understand how you engage with our website, such as how the site is being used, or to measure the effectiveness of our marketing campaigns. These Cookies help us to know which pages are the most and least popular and to see how visitors move around the site. These Cookies may be set by us or by third-party providers whose services we have added to our pages.

• Advertising: These Cookies are used to make advertising messages more relevant to you and your interests. They also perform functions like preventing the same ad from continuously reappearing, ensuring that ads are properly displayed, and in some cases selecting advertisements that are based on your interests. By turning this functionality off, you may still see ads about Intuit’s products and services, but those ads may be more frequent and less relevant to you and your needs.
