Cookies Policy

We use cookies to enhance your experience on our website, provide you with relevant services and features, and improve the overall performance of our platform.

What are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files that websites store on your device (such as a computer or mobile phone) when you visit them. They contain information about your browsing behavior and can be used to personalize your experience, remember your login details, and analyze website usage.

Why Do We Use Cookies?

We use cookies for various purposes:

  • To ensure our platform functions correctly and efficiently
  • To provide a seamless user experience by remembering your preferences and settings
  • To gather insights on how users interact with our site, which helps us improve its performance and functionality

Essential Cookies

Essential cookies are necessary to enable core features of our website. They include:

  • Session ID cookies: these ensure that you remain logged in during a single browsing session.
  • Authentication cookies: these verify your identity when logging in or using secure services.

Without essential cookies, some areas of our site might not work correctly.

Session Cookies

Session cookies are temporary and deleted from your device at the end of each browsing session. They help us:

  • Remember your login credentials
  • Track your progress through our platform (e.g., filling out forms)

These cookies do not store any personal data.

Persistent Cookies

Persistent cookies are stored on your device between sessions, allowing us to remember:

  • Your language preferences
  • Recent searches or browsing history
  • Personalized settings for future visits

While these cookies provide convenience features, you can opt-out of persistent cookie collection by adjusting your browser settings (more information below).

By remembering these settings, we can tailor your experience on subsequent visits. However, if you opt-out of persistent cookie storage or adjust browser controls to limit tracking, this information may not be retained.

Login/Session Continuity

To facilitate seamless login experiences and minimize the need for repeated authentication, cookies store temporary sessions between logins. This means that you'll stay connected during browsing without needing re-authenticate each time you interact with a site feature or service.

  • Adapt content delivery and display

This is necessary for delivering an optimal user experience across different devices.

  • Validating authentication tokens during secure transactions (e.g., financial transfers)
  • Monitoring and preventing suspicious behavior to maintain a trusted environment

While primarily used internally, these cookies enhance the overall security of your interactions on our website.

Browser Storage Technologies

We utilize local storage solutions like Web Storage to enable faster loading times or smooth functionality. This includes storing:

  • Login credentials for expedited login processes
  • Customized settings (e.g., preferred font sizes)
  • Content caches for quicker data retrieval and display

These technologies enhance platform performance without compromising user safety.

Third-Party Integrations

Our website may use third-party integrations to provide enriched experiences. These might include:

  • Social sharing buttons, which enable users to share content across various social media platforms
