2. Fastly uses Cookies
When you visit Fastly websites, information is stored on your device in the form of a “cookie.” Cookies are small files that are stored on your device and save certain settings and data to exchange with our websites via your browser. For example, cookies enable us to tailor a website to better match your interests or remember your username or password so that you do not have to re-enter it every time.

3. How does Fastly use Cookies?
When you first visit our websites, we send one or more necessary cookies to your device. Upon your return to our websites, any necessary cookies and other device cookies that you opt in to enable us to recognize your web browsers. Fastly uses session-based cookies, which last only during one browsing session. A session-based cookie is erased from your device when you close your web browser or turn off your device. Fastly also uses persistent cookies, which remain on your device after you have closed your browser or turned off your device.
Fastly may use web beacons, tags and scripts in our websites or in emails to help us to deliver cookies, count visits, understand usage and campaign effectiveness and determine whether an email has been opened and acted upon. We may receive reports based on the use of these technologies by our service/analytics providers on an individual and aggregated basis. We use this information collected from web beacons for determining which of our emails are more interesting to you and other users and improve our websites, our services and email communications.
If you opt in to cookies that collect analytics information, we collect analytics information when you use our websites to help us improve them. We may also share data about activity on our websites with third-party service providers for analytics of our website performance.
4. Why does Fastly use Cookies?
Different cookies perform different functions. Some cookies will always be used and some cookies are only used if you opt in to them. For example, we use cookies to analyze how our websites are performing and what content our visitors are interacting with. Certain cookies allow us to improve your experience by recommending or tailoring content displayed to you to improve the relevancy of the information to you. Other cookies permit us to serve targeted advertisements and gather generalized location information about visitors.
We assign our use of cookies according to four categories depending on their function and purpose as set forth in the table below:
| Category | Function |
|---|---|

For example, essential cookies help remember your preferences as you move around the website and are required to access secure areas of our websites. Fastly also uses necessary cookies to analyze the performance of Fastly’s services by collecting information regarding error rates and latency associated with page load time. |
