I. Introduction

This Cookie Policy explains how we use cookies and similar tracking technologies when you visit our website or use our app, and what choices are available to you. This policy should be read together with our Privacy Policy, Terms of Use, and, where applicable, our Subscription Terms and Refund Policy.

Strictly necessary cookies are used because they are essential to provide the service you request. Where required by applicable law, non-essential cookies (functional, analytics, and advertising cookies) are set only after you give your consent through our cookie consent banner or settings panel. In jurisdictions where prior consent is not legally required, we may use non-essential cookies subject to your right to opt out as described in Section VI.

II. What Are Cookies

Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website or use an app. They allow the site or app to recognize your device, remember your preferences or actions over time, and support certain functionality.

We also use similar technologies that function like cookies, including:

Local storage and session storage (data stored in your browser);

SDKs and mobile identifiers (used within apps, where cookies in the traditional sense do not apply);

Pixels and tags (small pieces of code used to track page visits, conversions, or ad performance);

Web beacons (used in emails or web pages to track opens or interactions).

For simplicity, this policy refers to all of these collectively as "cookies," except where a distinction is relevant.

III. Categories of Cookies We Use

We may use cookies set by us ("first-party cookies") and cookies set by third-party service providers ("third-party cookies"). Third-party cookies are subject to the privacy policies of the respective providers. An up-to-date list of the specific cookies and providers used, including their purposes and retention periods, is available through the cookie settings panel on our website or in the app.

1. Strictly Necessary Cookies

These cookies are required for the website or app to function and cannot be switched off. They are usually set in response to actions you take, such as logging in, setting privacy preferences, or completing a purchase.

Examples: session management, authentication, load balancing, security, remembering items in a checkout flow.

These cookies are exempt from consent requirements because they are strictly necessary to provide the service you have requested.

2. Functional Cookies

These cookies allow the website or app to remember choices you make (such as language, region, or display preferences) and provide enhanced, more personalized features.

If disabled, some features may not function correctly, but core functionality will still be available.

3. Performance and Analytics Cookies

These cookies collect information about how you use our website or app, such as which pages are visited most often, error messages, and general usage patterns. This helps us understand and improve performance.

Data collected is generally aggregated and used for statistical purposes. Where analytics providers process this data on our behalf, they act under our instructions and applicable data protection agreements.

4. Advertising and Targeting Cookies

These cookies may be set by us or by third-party advertising partners to build a profile of your interests and show you relevant content or advertising on our own or other services.

These cookies may track your activity across other websites or apps and may be linked to a unique identifier for your browser or device.

IV. Third-Party Cookies

Some cookies are placed by third parties, such as analytics providers, advertising networks, payment processors, or embedded content providers (for example, video players or social media widgets).

We do not control these third-party cookies directly. Their use is governed by the respective third party’s own privacy and cookie policies, which we encourage you to review.

V. Legal Basis and Consent

Where required by applicable law (including in the EEA, the United Kingdom, and Switzerland):

Strictly necessary cookies do not require consent, as they fall within the legal exemption for cookies that are strictly necessary to provide the service you have requested;

Functional, analytics, and advertising cookies are used only with your prior consent, which you may give or withdraw at any time through the cookie consent banner or settings panel presented when you first access our website or app. Withdrawing consent is as easy as giving it and does not affect the lawfulness of processing before withdrawal;

Personal data collected through cookies is processed in accordance with our Privacy Policy, which describes the applicable legal bases, recipients, and your data protection rights.

Where consent is not legally required (for example, in jurisdictions without an equivalent requirement), we may use non-essential cookies subject to your ability to opt out as described in Section VI.

United States State Privacy Laws

If you are a resident of California or another US state with an applicable privacy law, the use of advertising and targeting cookies may be considered a "sale" or "sharing" of personal information under that law. Where required, you may opt out of such sale or sharing through the cookie settings panel or an opt-out link on our website, and we will honor recognized opt-out preference signals (such as the Global Privacy Control) where legally required.

VI. Managing Your Cookie Preferences

You have several ways to manage or withdraw your cookie preferences:

Cookie settings panel: You can adjust your preferences at any time through the cookie settings link available on our website or in the app;

Browser controls: Most browsers allow you to block or delete cookies through their settings. Refer to your browser’s help documentation for instructions, as steps vary by browser and version;

Mobile device settings: For app-based tracking, you may be able to limit ad tracking or reset your advertising identifier through your device’s privacy settings;

Opt-out tools: For advertising cookies, you may also be able to opt out through industry tools such as the Digital Advertising Alliance, the European Interactive Digital Advertising Alliance, the Network Advertising Initiative, or equivalent programs available in your region.

Please note that disabling certain cookies may affect the availability or functionality of parts of our website or app, particularly features that rely on functional or strictly necessary cookies.

VII. Cookie Retention

Cookies remain on your device for different periods depending on their type:

Session cookies are deleted automatically when you close your browser or app;

Persistent cookies remain on your device for a set period (which varies by cookie and provider) or until you delete them manually.

Specific retention periods for individual cookies are indicated in the cookie settings panel, where applicable.

VIII. Changes to This Cookie Policy

We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time to reflect changes in the cookies and technologies we use, legal requirements, or our services. When updates are made, the 08.07.2026 above will be revised, and where required by law, we will request renewed consent for material changes affecting non-essential cookies.
