Yes. As described in Section 1.4 of our Privacy Policy, we use cookies and other technologies to ensure everyone who uses Shanhu has the best possible experience. Cookies also help us keep your account safe. By continuing to visit or use our services, you are agreeing to the use of cookies and similar technologies for the purposes we describe in this policy.
A cookie is a small file placed onto your device that enables Shanhu features and functionality. For example, cookies enable us to identify your device, secure your access to Shanhu and our sites generally, and even help us know if someone attempts to access your account from a different device. Cookies also enable you to easily share content on Shanhu and help us serve relevant ads to you.
We use cookies on our sites (such as shanhuhealth.com and irtone.com) and mobile applications. Any browser visiting these sites will receive cookies from us. We also place cookies in your browser when you visit non-Shanhu sites that host our plugins (for example, Shanhu’s “Share” button) or tags.
We use two types: persistent cookies and session cookies. A persistent cookie helps us recognize you as an existing user, so it’s easier to return to Shanhu or interact with our services without signing in again. After you sign in, a persistent cookie stays in your browser and will be read by Shanhu when you return to one of our sites or a partner site that uses our services (for example, our sharing or job application buttons). Session cookies only last for as long as the session (usually the current visit to a website or a browser session).
Cookies can be used to recognize you when you visit Shanhu, remember your preferences, and give you a personalized experience that’s in line with your settings. Cookies also make your interactions with Shanhu faster and more secure.

DNT is a concept that has been promoted by regulatory agencies such as the U.S. Federal Trade Commission (FTC), for the Internet industry to develop and implement a mechanism for allowing Internet users to control the tracking of their online activities across websites by using browser settings. The World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) has been working with industry groups, Internet browsers, technology companies, and regulators to develop a DNT technology standard. While some progress has been made, it has been slow. No standard has been adopted to this date. As such, Shanhu does not generally respond to “do not track” signals.
We will NOT use cookies to show you relevant advertising both on and off the Shanhu site.
Cookies and other ad technology such as beacons, pixels, and tags help us serve relevant ads to you more effectively. They also help us provide aggregated auditing, research, and reporting for advertisers, understand and improve our service, and know when content has been shown to you. Note: Because your web browser may request advertisements and beacons directly from third party ad network servers, these networks can view, edit, or set third party cookies, just as if you had requested a web page from their site. Ads served by Shanhu may also set third party cookies.
If you are logged in on Shanhu.com, SlideShare.net, or another Service that references this Cookie Policy or browsing a third party partner site of Shanhu and one of our cookies on your device identifies you, your usage (such as your browsing behavior) and log data (such as your IP address), will be associated by us with your account as noted in Sections 1.3 and 1.4 of our Privacy Policy. We also use aggregate data from third parties and data from your profile and Shanhu activity.
If you are a Shanhu member but logged out of your account on a browser, Shanhu may still continue to log your interaction with our services on that browser for up to 30 days in order to generate usage analytics for our services, which analytics we may share in aggregate form with our advertising customers.

Most browsers allow you to control cookies through their settings preferences. However, if you limit the ability of websites to set cookies, you may worsen your overall user experience, since it will no longer be personalized to you.
