What is Our Cookie Policy?
Cookies are small files that a web server sends to your computer or device when you visit a web site that uses cookies to keep track of your activity on that site. They hold a small amount of data specific to that web site, which can later be used to help remember information you enter into the site (like your email or other contact info), preferences selected, and movement within the site. If you return to the previously visited web site (and your browser has cookies enabled), the web browser sends the small file to the web server, which tells it what activity you engaged in the last time you used the site, and the server can use the cookie to do things like expedite logging in and retrieving user data and keeping your browser session secure.
We use cookies and other technologies to, among other things, better serve you with more tailored information, and to facilitate efficient and secure access to the Websites. We only use essential cookies. Essential cookies are those necessary for use to provide services to you. We have provided, below, a full list of our cookies, categorized as described above. We have described the purpose of each, whether they are Helping Minds or Third Party cookies, and how to withdraw consent to their use. We have also indicated which cookies are “session cookies” (which last for as long as you keep your browser open) and “persistent cookies” (which remain on your hard drive until you delete them or they expire).
We may also collect information using pixel tags, web beacons, clear GIFs or other similar technologies. These may be used in connection with some Site pages and HTMLformatted email messages to, among other things, track the actions of Site users and email recipients, and compile statistics about Site usage and response rates.
Essential Cookies:
Cookie Name, Who Controls It, and Duration | Purpose | Information Collected | How to Withdraw Consent |
---|---|---|---|
SSESS[session_id] During active session | Identifies the user and allows authentication to the server | A generated token that lets you log in. | Do not use our service and do not unsubscribe from automated emails if you do not want this cookie. |
How can You “Opt Out” of Cookies?
If you prefer, you can usually choose to set your browser to remove cookies and reject cookies. If you enable a do not track (DNT) signal or otherwise configure your browser to prevent Helping Minds from collecting cookies, You will need to reenter your user name each time you visit the login page.

Depending on where You live, You may have a legal right to receive such notices in writing.
You are solely responsible for protecting information entered or generated via the Websites that is stored on Your device and/or removable device storage.
