An introduction to cookies

Adhese uses cookies to support a number of the Adhese ad serving features. Cookies are small packets of data that a server sends to a browser's directories when a visitor opens a web page. When the visitor subsequently accesses the same website, the browser retrieves the cookie and returns it to the relevant server. The browser will only return a cookie to the server that sent it in the first place.

For user privacy concerning cookies, see User privacy GDPR. More on the privacy policy of Adhese is available on our website.

Adhese & cookies

Why does Adhese set cookies?

Adhese uses a single cookie, called adhese2, for data analysis and frequency capping. The adhese2 cookie contains a unique value to identify a previous visitor but does not collect any personally identifiable information. This cookie enables publishers to keep track of, for example, the number of unique visitors and the number of times a specific ad has been served to a particular visitor.

In addition, Adhese uses cookies for behavioural targeting. For example, if you want to target visitors who have expressed an interest in sports, you can place a sports cookie on the browser of your visitor.

How does Adhese set cookies?

The Adhese Ad Server sends a cookie to a browser when a visitor opens a web page of a publisher for the first time. More specifically, Adhese sends the adhese2 cookie when it receives a first initial request from the browser.
