Use of Cookies:
What Are Cookies:
Cookies are files that web browsers place on a visitors computer hard drive and are used to allow a more enjoyable visit with easier use of site and to more accurately track visitor behaviors to our site. Cookies come in two flavors: session and persistent-based. Session cookies exist only during an online session. They disappear from your computer when you close your browser software or turn off your computer. Persistent cookies remain on your computer after you've closed your browser or turned off your computer. Cookies do not identify you personally. They merely recognize your browser, unless you choose to identify yourself voluntarily. You may choose to identify yourself by asking the browser to remember your username and password, otherwise you remain as an anonymous web site visitor.

TaskPortal.com Web Site:
When you interact with the TaskPortal.com web site, we strive to make that experience easy, user-friendly and meaningful. When you come to the TaskPortal.com web site, the web server uses cookies to improve our visitors' interaction with our site by tracking web visitor behavior.

TaskPortal Hosted and Enterprise Solutions:
TaskPortal Hosted and Enterprise Solution may place a "cookie" in the browser files of a user's computer. The cookie itself does not contain any personal identifying information, except when such information has been voluntarily supplied by the registered user.

A session cookie is placed in user's computer when using one of the TaskPortal Hosted and Enterprise Solutions. This cookie is only active for the duration of the session. The session cookie is removed when the user logs out or the browser window is closed.

A permanent cookie is placed in user's computer if and only if the user selects the "Remember Me" option available for users of TaskPortal Hosted and Enterprise Solutions. The cookie will not store any personal information, but rather store a unique alphanumeric identifier that is used by the system to identify the user on return to the TaskPortal Hosted and Enterprise Solutions and thus eliminating the requirement for manual user authentication i.e. login screen.

The user has an option to de-active the "Remember Me" function at any desired time. This will automatically delete the cookie from the user's computer.

Browsers or third-party software can allow you to block the use of cookies. In such cases the user would not be able to use the TaskPortal Hosted or Enterprise solutions as well as take advantage of the "Remember Me" function available on TaskPortal Hosted and Enterprise Solutions.

What are Clear Gifs?
Clear gifs are tiny graphics, similar in function to cookies, and are used to track the online movements of Web users. The main difference between the two is that clear gifs are invisible on the page and are much smaller, about the size of the period at the end of this sentence. Clear gifs are not tied to users' personally identifiable information.

Use of Clear Gifs
To help TaskPortal Technologies improve visitor experience and manage site content, clear gifs (Web Beacons) are used to track visitor behavior.
