Cookies Policy

Cookies Policy

This Cookies Policy explains how we use cookies, browser technologies, and other storage mechanisms to enhance your browsing experience on our website (the "Website" or "Platform"). We will also outline the options you have for managing these technologies.

What are Cookies?

A cookie is a small text file that is stored on your device by a website. It typically contains a unique identifier code and some additional information about your visit to the Website, such as your language preferences and whether you've visited before.

Why do we use cookies?

We use cookies for various purposes:

  • To enable core functionality (e.g., logging in or accessing secure areas)
  • To improve user experience and tailor content
  • For analytics and performance measurement
  • To customize settings based on user preferences

Essential Cookies

Some cookies are necessary to ensure that our Website functions correctly. These include session cookies, which we use for:

  • Keeping track of your login status
  • Temporarily storing data during the transaction process
  • Managing browsing sessions

These essential cookies do not require consent and will be set automatically when you visit us.

Session Cookies vs Persistent Cookies

Session Cookies

Used to enable transient functionality and are erased at the end of each browsing session. We use these for:

  • Login authentication
  • Transient data storage (e.g., cart items)

These are usually cleared from your device once you exit our Website or close your browser.

Persistent Cookies

Stored on your device until they reach their specified expiration date or you delete them manually. These help us remember various aspects of your visit, such as:

  • Language preferences
  • Saved search parameters

By keeping persistent cookies enabled, we can enhance the overall user experience and tailor our content to better suit your needs.

Functional Cookies

We use functional cookies for specific purposes like:

  • User interface customization (e.g., language or layout choices)
  • Displaying relevant offers based on browsing behavior
  • Providing real-time updates

By accepting these types of cookies, you allow us to improve the interactivity and responsiveness of our Platform.

Analytics and Performance Cookies

Used by third-party services for tracking Website performance and providing insights about:

  • Engagement patterns (e.g., clickstream analysis)
  • Bounce rates and conversion metrics
  • Browser type and version information

These help us identify areas that require improvement, enhance user experience, or optimize our content delivery.

Preference Settings & Language Options

You can adjust various settings to control the way cookies work for you:

  • Change language preferences via cookie-based storage (session/persistent)
  • Manage login credentials and authentication methods
  • Update your personalization settings (e.g., recommended offers)

Your choices regarding these settings will not be affected by our essential cookies, which remain in place to ensure functionality.

Login Session Continuity

For users with an active login session, we set a persistent cookie that helps maintain continuity of the login status. This ensures you don't need to reauthenticate every time you revisit the Website within your designated browser sessions.

Device Recognition & Security-Related Cookies

To improve security and prevent unauthorized access, we employ measures like:

  • Device recognition for identification purposes
  • Tracking IP addresses for geolocation analysis

These practices aid our efforts in maintaining a secure browsing environment while minimizing potential risks associated with device sharing or multi-user situations.

Third-Party Integrations & Marketing Preferences

In order to enhance your experience, we may integrate third-party services that include cookie-related functionality. If you encounter any marketing-oriented cookies, rest assured these are primarily for providing more relevant offers based on your browsing history and interests.

If at any point you wish to change or withdraw consent for specific types of cookies (not essential for the proper functioning of our Platform), please refer to the 'Cookie Consent Management' section below for instructions on how to manage cookie preferences across third-party integrations as well.

Cookie Consent Management

You can configure your browser settings, use online tools, or visit privacy centers within browsers (like Safari's Intelligent Tracking Prevention) to manage cookies and tracking technologies. If you decide to refuse all types of cookies or revoke consent for any previously accepted ones:

  • Be aware that our Website functionality might be impacted in areas relying on the type(s) of cookies blocked
  • Some features, particularly analytics-aided improvements, may not work optimally without these stored data

If you still prefer managing your browsing experience based on third-party integrations' policies and your individual choices regarding cookie usage:

  1. Use built-in browser settings to delete existing cookies or opt-out from specific providers.
  2. Implement website-specific Do Not Track (DNT) signals.

By understanding how our use of cookies enhances the Website, you're better equipped to make informed decisions about your preferences for browsing comfort and data management on the Platform.
