This Cookie Notice applies to SCV Research and Development Pte. Ltd. (trading as “TASConnect”), which you may have a contract with, or which may provide services to you. This Cookie Notice explains how we use cookies and similar technologies to recognise you when you visit our Website and/or use our applications. It explains what these are and why we use them, as well as your rights to control our use of them.
Our Website stores cookies on your computer. These cookies are used to collect information about how you interact with our website and allow us to remember you. We use this information in order to improve and customise your browsing experience and for the collection of analytics and metrics about our visitors both on this website and other media.
What are cookies?
Cookies are small data files that are placed on your computer or mobile device when you visit a website. Cookies are widely used by website owners in order to make their websites work, or to work more efficiently, as well as to provide reporting information.
Where required by applicable law, we will obtain your consent before we place any cookies on your device that are not strictly necessary for the functioning of our Website.
Cookies set by the website owner (in this case, TASConnect) are called “first party cookies”. Cookies set by parties other than the website owner are called “third party cookies”. Third party cookies enable third party features or functionality to be provided on or through the website (e.g. like advertising, interactive content and analytics). The parties that set these third party cookies can recognise your computer both when it visits the website in question and also when it visits certain other websites.
Why do we use cookies?
We use first party and third party cookies for several reasons. Our first party cookies are required for technical reasons in order for our Website to operate, and we refer to these as “essential” or “strictly necessary” cookies. Other first and third party cookies also enable us to track and target the interests of our users to enhance the experience on our Website. Third parties may also serve cookies through our Website for advertising, analytics and other purposes.
The types of first and third party cookies served through our Website and the purposes they perform are described below. Please note that the specific cookies served may vary depending on the specific Website you visit. You can find details of the particular cookies that are served on each Website, and/or of any parties serving third party cookies, as well as adjust your preferences, by clicking on the Cookie Settings on the applicable Website. Alternatively, visitors can also use their browser settings to control how cookies are set on their devices. However, blocking some types of cookies may impact your experience of the Website and may impair the services we are able to offer.
We use cookies on this site in four main ways:
“Strictly necessary” cookies, which are first party cookies that must be set to allow us to deliver the Website to you and to provide specific services that you request from us. They are usually only set in response to actions made by you which amount to a request for services, such as setting your privacy preferences, logging in or filling in forms.
“Performance” cookies, which are first party cookies that help us to collect information about how visitors use our Website and helps us with site analysis and improvements. Performance cookies will remain on your computer after you close your browser. If you opt out of, or do not allow, these cookies (as applicable), we will not know when you have visited our Website and will not be able to monitor its performance.
“Functionality” cookies, which allow our Website to remember our choices or preferences, such as information on online forms or previous orders (if applicable). These cookies enable you to move around our Website and use its features such as accessing secure areas. These cookies allow us to offer you a personalised experience while using the Website. They are not used to track your browsing activity on other websites. They may beset by us or by third party providers whose services we have added to our pages. If you do not allow these cookies then some or all of these services may not function properly.
“Targeting” cookies, which are third party cookies set through our Website by our advertising partners. They are used by those companies to build a profile of your interests and show you relevant adverts on other websites. They do not store directly personal information, but are based on uniquely identifying your browser and internet device. If you do not allow these cookies, you will still experience advertising but it will be less targeted to you.
Do you serve targeted advertising?
Third parties may serve cookies on your computer or mobile device to serve advertising through our Website. These companies may use information about your visits to this and other websites in order to provide relevant advertisements about goods and services that you may be interested in. They may also employ technology that is used to measure the effectiveness of advertisements. This can be accomplished by them using cookies or web beacons to collect information about your visits to this and other sites in order to provide relevant advertisements about goods and services of potential interest to you.
How can I control cookies?

You can amend your cookies choices at any time, including by withdrawing your consent to certain cookies, through our Cookie Settings or by changing your web browser controls. If you choose to reject cookies, you may still use our Website though your access to some functionality and areas of our Website may be restricted. You may need to refresh your page for your settings to take effect.
Browser controls
Most browsers will allow you to see what cookies you have and delete them on an individual basis or block cookies from particular or all sites. Be aware that any preference set will be lost if you delete all cookies, including your preference to opt-out from cookies as this itself requires an opt-out cookie to have been set.

How often will you update this Cookie Notice?
We may update this Cookie Notice from time to time in order to reflect, for example, changes to the cookies we use or for other operational, legal or regulatory reasons. Please therefore re-visit this Cookie Notice regularly to stay informed about our use of cookies and related technologies.
