How Do We Use Cookies and Web

Beacons?
Cookies are small text files that are

sent to your computer by a web

server. We use cookies to provide

benefits to you. Session cookies

remember the previous activity

performed by you, for example an

item you placed in a shopping cart.

Persistent cookies are used to save

your preferences over multiple

sessions, for example personalization

of settings on our websites. Cookies

may be used to display targeted ads

and recommendations, for example

to eliminate showing the same ads to

you multiple times or showing ads

that we think are of interest to you

based on your past actions on our

website. Cookies are also used to

determine the effectiveness of our

promotions and advertising

campaigns and to improve our

products and services.
Nokia may use web beacons (or “pixel

tags”) in connection with some of our

websites. However, we do not use

them to identify individual users

personally. Web beacons are typically

graphic images that are placed on a

website and they are used to count

visitors to a website and/or to access

certain cookies. This information is

used to improve our services. Web

beacons do not typically collect any

other information than what your

browser provides us with as a

standard part of any internet

communication. If you turn off

cookies, the web beacon will no longer

be able to track your specific activity.

The web beacon may, however,

continue to collect information about

visits from your IP-address.
Some Nokia websites or applications

may utilize so called locally stored

objects, such as Flash local shared

Web Storage. Locally stored objects

data than browser cookies. For
