Necessary cookies and similar technologies support functions required for the website to operate.
They may be used for:
- Website security;

- Membership access;
- Paywall operation;
- Shopping carts;

- Saving information specifically requested by the visitor.
These technologies are not used for unrelated behavioral advertising.
Because these technologies are required to provide requested services, they cannot be disabled through Cookie Settings. You may block them through your browser, but parts of the website may stop working.
Functional Cookies
Default: Off
Functional cookies help provide enhanced features and remember choices that are not strictly necessary.
They may be used for:
- Language or regional preferences;
- Display settings;
- Saved interface preferences;
- Video-player preferences;
- Remembered volume or playback settings;
- Enhanced account features;
- Customer-support tools; and
- Other personalized website functions.
If you disable functional cookies, some features may not operate as expected.
Analytics and Performance Cookies
Default: Off
Analytics and performance technologies help us understand how visitors interact with our website and content.
They may collect information about:
- Pages and articles viewed;
- Time spent on pages;
- Navigation paths;
- Referring websites;
- Browser and device type;
- Approximate location;
- Video engagement;
- Membership and paywall interactions;

We use this information to measure readership, troubleshoot problems, improve performance, and understand which content is useful to our audience.
Where possible, analytics information should be aggregated or deidentified.
Analytics technologies must not load before consent where consent is legally required.
Advertising Cookies
Default: Off
Advertising cookies and similar technologies may be used to deliver, limit, measure, or personalize advertisements.
They may help us:
- Measure advertising campaigns;
- Understand whether an advertisement was viewed or selected;
- Limit how often an advertisement is displayed;
- Attribute visits or purchases to campaigns;
- Create audience segments;
- Display advertising based on interests; and
- Measure sponsored-content performance.
Advertising partners may collect information about activity over time and across different websites, applications, browsers, or devices.
Depending on applicable law, the use or disclosure of information through these technologies may be considered:
- Targeted advertising;
- Cross-context behavioral advertising;
- A sale of personal information; or
- Sharing of personal information.
Advertising technologies must remain disabled until the visitor provides consent where required.
Selecting Reject Nonessential, disabling this category, or using a recognized Global Privacy Control signal should prevent IOM-controlled advertising technologies from being used for targeted advertising on that browser and device where legally required.
You may continue to see advertising, but it should not be personalized using optional IOM tracking technologies.
Social Media and Embedded Content
Default: Off
Our articles and pages may contain content supplied by third-party platforms, such as:
- Video players;
- Audio players;
- Social-media posts;
- Maps;
- Event tools; and
- Other interactive content.
These providers may use cookies or similar technologies to collect information about your device, activity, and interactions.
When this category is disabled, embedded content may be blocked or replaced with a notice until you choose to activate it.
Global Privacy Control
Where required by applicable law, IOM should recognize and honor a valid Global Privacy Control signal as a request to opt out of cookie-based sale, sharing, or targeted advertising.
When Global Privacy Control is detected:
- Advertising cookies should remain disabled where required;
- The applicable opt-out should be recorded;
- The preference center should display the recognized status;
- The visitor should not be asked to enable conflicting advertising choices without clear notice; and
- Necessary cookies may continue operating.
