This Policy explains how cookies and other technologies such as pixels or tags (collectively “cookies”) may be used on our websites. Cookies help us deliver a secure, efficient, and user-friendly browsing experience by enabling site functionality, remembering your preferences, and helping us understand how our websites are used so we can improve their performance.
References to “our websites” in this Policy include https://www.cirrus.com, https://investor.cirrus.com (our investor relations website), https://jobs.eu.lever.co/cirrus (our jobs microsite provided by Lever), and other Cirrus Logic websites, as applicable.
This Policy outlines the cookies we use, the purposes for which they are used, how long they remain on your device, and how you can manage your cookie preferences.
This Policy should be read alongside our Privacy Policy, which explains how we handle personal data.
A cookie is a small text file that a website can send to your browser, which is then stored on your device and used, for example, to collect information about your website activity.
Some cookies are deleted when you close down your browser. These are known as session cookies. Others remain on your device until they expire or are manually deleted. These are known as persistent cookies and may be used to recognize your device when you return to our websites, analyze your use of our websites, and remember your preferences over time. Session and persistent cookies can be either first- or third-party cookies. A first-party cookie is set by the website being visited. A third-party cookie is set by a third-party and supports features or services to be provided on or through a website such as embedded content or website analytics services.
Further information explaining cookies can be found at https://allaboutcookies.org. Alternatively, you can search the internet for other independent information on cookies.
Our websites use a combination of session and persistent cookies, as well as both first-party and third-party cookies. We classify these cookies into the following categories:
Strictly necessary cookies which are required for the operation of our websites. These cookies enable essential functionality such as page navigation, security, and access to features that require user log in authentication. These cookies are always active and cannot be rejected through our Cookie Preference Center because our websites may not function properly without them. You can disable these cookies in your browser settings, but this may prevent you from being able to access all or parts of our websites.
Performance cookies which help us understand how users interact with our websites and are typically used for troubleshooting and analytics purposes. These cookies measure website traffic, identify usage patterns, and detect technical issues. This information is used to help us improve the way our websites work, such as by enabling users to navigate the sites and access content more effectively.
Functional cookies which enable enhanced functionality on our websites. These cookies support features provided by third-party service providers. If you do not allow these cookies, some or all of these features and services may not function properly.
The cookies used on our websites generally contain only pseudonymous identifiers and do not identify you directly. However, where you log in to a secure portal or online account within our website environment (such as our software release portal or our investor relations website hosted by Q4), certain cookies may be associated with your account information in our backend systems. Other technical information, such as your IP address and browser details, may also be collected separately when you visit our websites, as noted in our Privacy Policy.
