Last updated: December 6, 2022

This Cookies Policy explains how we use cookies and similar technologies and how you can control them. For more information about our privacy practices, please see our Privacy Policy. Terms that are not defined in this Cookies Policy have, unless otherwise indicated, the meanings set forth in our Privacy Policy.

 

What Are Cookies?

A cookie is a small text file that is placed onto your device (e.g., a computer, smartphone, or other electronic device) when you use the Chainalysis Website or Services. Chainalysis or its affiliates, partners, or service providers may use cookies and similar technologies, such as web beacons, pixels, embedded scripts and logging technologies (collectively, “cookies”), to automatically collect certain information when you visit or interact with our Website or Services.

 

What Information Do We Collect Using Cookies?

The information we obtain through cookies may include the IP addresses, identifiers, or types of the devices connected to our Website or our Services; web browser characteristics; language preferences; referring and exit pages; clickstream data; and dates and times of visits to the Website or our Services. Cookies help us understand and improve our customer and user experience, for example, by allowing us to:

  • analyze usage of the Website or the Services,
  • administer the Website,
  • analyze users’ navigation around the Website,
  • gather demographic information about our user base,
  • keep a user logged into the Service, and
  • remember a user’s preferences when he or she returns to the Service.

 

Your Choices

Consent and cookie settings
We will ask for your permission to place cookies on your devices, except when they are essential for us to provide you with the service you’ve requested (for example, to allow us to remember login details) or are otherwise necessary to navigate and use our Website and Services. Such cookies cannot be disabled. You may withdraw permission or manage preferences for non-essential cookies – such as cookies for targeted advertising – using our Cookie Settings page, which you can find by clicking on the cookies icon at the bottom of the Chainalysis Website. It may be necessary to refresh the page for the updated settings to take effect.

As an alternative, you may be able to change your browser settings to turn off all cookies (including essential ones). If you do this, please be aware that you may lose some of the functionality of the Chainalysis Website or Services.

Online behavioral advertising
We support the self-regulatory principles for online behavioral advertising published by the Digital Advertising Alliance. These principles allow individuals to exercise choice regarding the collection of information about online activities over time and across third-party websites and applications for online interest-based advertising purposes. More information about these principles can be found at About Ads.

Some of our third-party providers may directly collect information about your activities across Chainalysis and third-party websites and applications over time for purposes of providing behavioral or interest-based advertising services. If you want to opt-out of receiving online interest-based advertisements on your internet browser from advertisers and third parties that participate in the Digital Advertising Alliance program and perform advertising-related services for us and our partners, please follow the instructions at http://www.aboutads.info/choices, or http://www.networkadvertising.org/choices/. If you want to opt out of interest-based advertisements across all your browsers and devices, then you will need to opt-out on each browser on each device. If you delete cookies on a device generally, you will need to opt-out again.

To opt-out of receiving online interest-based advertisements on mobile apps, please follow the instructions at http://www.aboutads.info/appchoices.

Please note that opting out of receiving interest-based advertisements does not mean you will no longer see advertisements from us or about our Services. Instead, it means that the online ads you do see from Digital Advertising Alliance program participants will not be interest-based. We are not responsible for the effectiveness of, or compliance with, any third-parties’ opt-outs or the accuracy of their statements regarding their opt-out programs. In addition, third parties may still use cookies to collect information about your use of our Services, including for analytics and fraud prevention as well as any other purpose permitted under the Digital Advertising Alliance’s principles.

Certain third-party advertising networks, including Google, permit users to opt-out of or customize preferences associated with your internet browsing. To learn more about this feature from Google, click here.
