Cookie Policy

This Cookie Policy explains how Huawei Cloud ("Huawei Cloud", "we", "our" and "us") uses Cookie and similar technologies in connection with https://www.huaweicloud.com/intl/en-us/ ("Website") and all products and services that contain or refer to this Cookie Policy (collectively “Services”).

Please see our Privacy Statement for details on how we process your personal data.

1. What are Cookies?

Cookies are small data files that are placed on your computer or mobile device when you visit a website, which often include an anonymous unique identifier. Cookies are created when your browser loads a particular website. The website sends information to the browser which then creates a text file. Every time the user goes back to the same website, the browser retrieves and sends this file to the website's server. The content of a Cookie can be retrieved and read only by the server that created the Cookie. Cookies are unique to the browser or mobile application you are using.

Cookies serve different purposes, like helping us understand how a site is being used, letting you navigate between pages efficiently, remembering your preferences and generally improving your browsing experience.

2. What Cookies we use and what information we collect?

Based on legitimate interests and/or your consent, we use two broad categories of Cookies:

(1) Essential Cookies

These cookies are essential for the proper functioning of the Services and cannot be deactivated without affecting the use of the Services. They are usually deposited as a result of actions you take to obtain the required Services.

We use these cookies for the following purposes:

(a) Authenticate your identity, for example, when you sign in to use our services, we use cookies to authenticate yourself and grant you permissions.

(b) Keep track of your session, for example, when you filling online forms over several website pages, we use cookies to keep track of your session to ensures that your access is as smoothly as possible.

(c) Keep track of your specified preferences, for example, we use cookies to save your specified preferences, such as the language, font size and other browser preferences.

(d) Preventing fraudulent activity and improving security, for example, we use cookies to detect repeated failed login attempts on the website and detect fraud.

(2) Analytic cookies

These cookies are used to collect technical information about your use of our Services (either for a single visit, using session cookies, or for repeated visits, using a persistent cookie), such as the last Huawei Cloud website page visited, whether or not email communications are opened, the number of pages visited, the source from which you visited our Services, which parts of our Services or email are clicked on and the length of time between clicks. All information these cookies collect is aggregated and therefore may be non-directly identifiable.

We use these cookies for the following purposes:

(a) Conduct research and diagnostics to improve our Services.

(b) Improve or optimize the user experience and performance of our Services.

The information we collect through cookies include:

(a) The URL clickstream information, such as which websites you access before accessing our website, or whether you clicked on a link from a search engine or a social media post.

(b) The interaction information, such as the duration and number of webpages accessed by you.

(c) The device information, such as device brand and model, browser type and version, operating system type and time zone setting of you are using.

3. Third Party Cookies

Cookies set by third parties and not managed by us may be stored as a result of your use of the Services. This may occur when third-party analytics, social tools, or advertising tools are used in the section of the Services you visit, or when that section contains content viewed from a third-party website. You should review the privacy and cookie policies of these third-party services to find out how these third parties use Cookies and whether your Cookie data will be transferred to another country.

5. Other similar technologies

In addition to Cookies, we may use other similar technologies, such as browser web storage, web beacons and pixel tags to collect information automatically.

Browser Web Storage

We may use browser web storage (including via HTML5), also known as locally stored objects (“LSOs”), for similar purposes as Cookies. Browser web storage enables the storage of a larger amount of data than Cookies. Your web browser may provide functionality to clear your browser web storage.

Web Beacons

A web beacon is usually an electronic graphic image embedded into a website or email to identify your device cookies when you browse the website or email.

Pixel tags

Pixel tags allow us to send emails in a way that is readable to you and find out whether you opened the email or not. For example, when you receive an email from Huawei Cloud, it may contain a click-through URL which links to a Huawei Cloud web page. If you click the link, Huawei Cloud will track your visit to help us learn about your preferences for products and services and improve our customer service. You can unsubscribe from our emails if you do not want to be tracked via emails.

Mobile Application Software Development Kits (SDKs)

We may use third-party software development kits (“SDKs”) in our applications. An SDK is third-party computer code that may be used for a variety of purposes, including to provide us with analytics regarding the use of our applications, to integrate with social media, add features or functionality to our app, or to facilitate online advertising. SDKs may enable third parties to collect information directly via our applications.

6. Do Not Track

Many web browsers provide a Do Not Track function that can release Do Not Track requests to websites. Currently, major Internet standards organizations have not established policies to specify how websites should handle these requests.

If you enable Do Not Track or other similar functions your browser may provide, Huawei Cloud will not change the way we collect and use your data as described in this Cookie Policy and our Privacy Statement. However, we reserve the right to respond to your Do Not Track request and stop the collection of your data without prior notice to you.

7. Your Choices

Many browsers accept Cookies by default until you change your settings, but let you block or remove Cookies. To learn how to set your browser to block or alert you to these cookies, see here: Internet Explorer> Google Chrome>Mozilla Firefox>Safari>Opera.

Many of the Services require Cookies to operate. If you choose to block cookies related to these Services, you may not be able to use those Services or certain features of the Services. For example, we may not be able to recognize your computer or mobile device and you may need to log in every time you visit the Website.
