Cookies are small text files stored by your browser as you browse the Internet. They can be used to collect, store, and share data about your activities across websites, including on Rolonet. Cookies also allow us to remember things about your visits to Rolonet, like your preferred language, and to make the site easier to use.
We use both session cookies, which expire after a short time or when you close your browser, and persistent cookies, which remain stored in your browser for a set period of time. We use session cookies to identify you during a single browsing session, like when you log into Rolonet. We use persistent cookies where we need to identify you over a longer period, like when you request that we keep you signed in.

We use cookies and similar technologies like web beacons, pixel tags, or local shared objects (“flash cookies”), to deliver, measure, and improve our services in various ways.

Authentication and security    •    To log you into Rolonet
    •    To protect your security
    •    To help detect and fight spam, abuse, and other activities that violate Rolonet’s agreements
