Cookie Policy
Metaswitch Networks wants its websites to be simple, useful and accessible. This sometimes involves putting information on the device that you use to access our websites, for example your computer or mobile phone. This includes small files called cookies.
What we use cookies for
We use cookies to improve our websites for you. For example, we use cookies to:
- Recognize that you may have given a username and password to log in to one of our services so that you don’t need to do it for every web page that you visit.
- Remember any personal preferences that you may tell us about.
- Remember certain actions that you may have taken. For example, if you have already seen a particular feature banner, our website will use a cookie to remember this and show you a different one next time.
- Ensure a high quality of service when you view digital media, such as videos.
- Measure how many people visit our websites, to help us understand how our users interact with our websites so that we can make them better.
