2. What is a Cookie?

A cookie is a small text file containing small amounts of information downloaded onto your device (e.g., a computer or smartphone) when you navigate the web or use an app connected to the web. It allows the website or app to recognize that user and personalize content. Subject to the user’s choices, cookies are used to send information to the user’s browser and allow that browser to send information back to the visited website. Cookies allow for the storage of information about the user’s browsing history during the time that the relevant cookies are valid.

We use cookies to personalize the content, analyze our website traffic, and provide social media features.

    3. What cookies are collected by us, for which purposes and how long?

    The classification of cookies is provided monthly by our partner CookieBot with a description of each cookie and the duration of retention they are designed for.

    On our website we collect the following cookie categories:

    Necessary cookies:

    Statistics cookies:

Among others we use Hotjar a technology service that helps us better understand our users’ experience (e.g. how much time they spend on which pages, which links they choose to click, what users do and don’t like, etc.) and this enables us to build and maintain our service with user feedback. Hotjar uses cookies and other technologies to collect data on our users’ behavior and their devices. This includes a device’s IP address (processed during your session and stored in a de-identified form), device screen size, device type (unique device identifiers), browser information, geographic location (country only), and the preferred language used to display our website. Hotjar stores this information on our behalf in a pseudonymized user profile. Hotjar is contractually forbidden to sell any of the data collected on our behalf.

    We need your consent to use these cookies. If you don’t want these cookies, please select “Allow necessary cookies only” or adapt your selection.

    At SOPHiA GENETICS, we have decided to limit the retention period for cookies, and they don’t exceed 13 months (although provider retention might be defined for a longer time).
