Cookie Policy
How CemNet.com uses cookies and browser storage for subscriber access and advertising, alongside cookieless website analytics.
Cookies on this website
CemNet.com uses first-party cookies to support signing in and access to subscriber content. Our advertising provider, AdvertServe, also uses a third-party cookie and browser local storage to support advertising delivery and measurement. Our website analytics service, Plausible, does not use cookies.
Cookies are small files stored by your browser. Local storage is a separate way of keeping information in your browser; entries can remain until you clear the relevant site data. The sections below explain these uses and how to manage them.
Essential cookies
The Paid For/Members content of this website requires cookies to function. UK and EU Cookie Law deems these Cookies to be “strictly necessary”. These Cookies are shown below. Your consent will not be sought to place these Cookies. You may still block these cookies by changing your internet browser's settings as detailed below but access to subscriber content of this website will be affected.
The following essential first party Cookies may be placed on your computer if you try and sign in to access subscriber content:
| Cookie Name | Purpose | Strictly necessary |
|---|---|---|
| .ASPXAUTH | To authenticate users accessing paid for content on the website. This is a session cookie and expires at the end of the session e.g when you log-out. | YES |
Advertising cookies and browser storage
We use AdvertServe to display advertisements on CemNet.com and measure advertising activity. AdvertServe provides us with aggregated advertising reports, rather than individual visitors’ IP addresses.
To deliver and measure advertisements, AdvertServe processes technical information such as IP addresses, approximate location, browser information and advertising identifiers. Its privacy policy explains that sensitive fields in its logs are hashed or masked. Aggregated reporting does not mean that no visitor information is processed.
| Name | Storage type | Purpose and duration |
|---|---|---|
| AVPUID | Third-party cookie | Stores an advertising visitor identifier. Set by cemnet.advertserve.com with a lifespan of one year. |
| AVP_UUID | Local storage | Stores an identifier used with advertising requests. No automatic expiry is specified; it may remain until the relevant browser site data is cleared. |
| AVP_SESSION_ACTIVITY | Local storage | Records activity time to distinguish visits. A new session is counted after 30 minutes of inactivity, but the stored entry does not automatically expire after that period. |
Whether these items are stored depends on your browser settings and privacy controls. You can review and configure the advertising preferences available through AdvertServe Privacy Shield. For details of how AdvertServe handles information, read its privacy policy.
Analytics without cookies
We use Plausible Analytics to understand how visitors use CemNet.com and to improve our website. Its reports show aggregate statistics such as page views, referral sources, device and browser types, and approximate visitor locations.
Plausible does not use cookies or browser local storage, and does not create persistent visitor identifiers. It does not track visitors across websites or devices. IP addresses and browser information are processed to estimate location and distinguish visitors within a day; raw IP addresses and raw browser User-Agent strings are not stored. Plausible stores event and session records to produce its statistical reports.
For details of the information collected and how it is handled, read the Plausible Analytics data policy and its explanation of cookieless web analytics.
