Cookies

Like many companies, Mint sometimes uses "cookie" technology on its website. A “cookie” is a small summary file containing a unique ID number which is stored on your computer by your browser. When you log in, the cookie tells Mint whether you've visited the website before or if you are a new visitor. The cookie doesn't obtain any personal information about you or provide Mint with any way to contact you, and the cookie doesn't extract any information from your computer. Mint uses the cookie to help it identify the relevant website features in which you have the greatest interest, so that it may better personalise your access to the website.

Mint also uses the cookie to collect anonymous data from and about users of the website, including for Mint digital advertising purposes, for example, in respect of Mint remarketing activities which also employ user tagging technology such as Floodlight tag. Platforms used by Mint for collecting such data include DoubleClick Campaign Manager, DoubleClick Bid Manager, Facebook Business Manager, and Google AdWords. The data collected is encrypted and does not include any personally identifiable information.

If you do not wish to receive cookies, you can set your browser so that your computer does not accept them.

Security

Mint cares about protecting the security of your personal information, and we have implemented security procedures to protect the personal information which you provide to us via our website. However, no method of transmitting or storing electronic data is ever completely secure, and we cannot guarantee that such information will never be accessed, used, or released in a manner that is inconsistent with this policy.

7. Security

We are committed to keeping your personal information secure and will take reasonable precautions to protect it from loss, misuse or unauthorised alteration.
