| 18 | 18 | Technically speaking, cookies are called "HTTP cookies." There are other technologies that can be used for similar purposes, such as HTML5 Local Storage and local shared objects (LSOs). LSOs are used by the authors of files that are read by Adobe® Flash® Player and the websites hosting those files (learn more about [Flash Player and LSOs](https://www.adobe.com/privacy/policies/flash-player.html)). We may use HTML5 Local Storage, LSOs, and similar technologies for authenticating you, keeping track of information you have provided to us, and remembering your preferences (see bullet points above). When you are using an Adobe application offline, we may store information related to how you used that website on your device and then transfer it to our servers the next time you connect online to our service. |
