1. Introduction to Cookie Policy

This Cookie Policy explains how cookies are used on our website to provide a better browsing experience. Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you visit a website. They help websites remember your actions, preferences, and browsing activity, making your interaction with the site smoother and more personalized. By understanding how cookies work, you can make informed choices about your privacy and data usage.

We are committed to being transparent about how cookies function on our site. This policy also outlines the types of cookies we use, why we use them, and how you can manage them. Compliance with global privacy standards such as the GDPR (General Data Protection Regulation) and CCPA (California Consumer Privacy Act) is a key part of our approach. By continuing to use our website, you agree to the use of cookies as explained here. If you do not wish to accept cookies, you can disable them through your browser settings.

2. What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small data files placed on your computer, tablet, or smartphone when you visit a website. They serve as memory tools that allow websites to recognize your device, track your activity, and store useful information. For example, when you add products to a shopping cart or log into an account, cookies help websites remember those actions so you don’t need to start over during your next visit.

Cookies are not harmful and do not contain viruses. Instead, they are designed to make your browsing faster and more convenient. They can store login details, language preferences, and even track user behavior for analytical purposes. Different types of cookies serve different functions, from ensuring security to improving user experience. By learning more about cookies, you gain control over how websites interact with your personal data.

3. Types of Cookies We Use

Our website uses several types of cookies, each serving a unique purpose. Session cookies are temporary and disappear once you close your browser. They ensure smooth navigation during your visit. Persistent cookies, on the other hand, remain on your device for a set period and remember your preferences for future visits.

We also use first-party cookies, which are directly set by our website, and third-party cookies, which come from external services like analytics providers or advertisers. Together, these cookies improve functionality, performance, and personalization. By categorizing cookies, you can easily identify which ones are essential for browsing and which are optional. Understanding these differences empowers you to manage your preferences with clarity.

4. Why Do We Use Cookies?

Cookies are used for several important reasons. Firstly, they improve website performance by enabling faster loading times and smoother navigation. Secondly, they help personalize the browsing experience, such as remembering your preferred language, location, or login details. Without cookies, many of these features would require repetitive actions from users.

Another key reason for using cookies is analytics. They allow us to track visitor activity, measure performance, and understand how users interact with the site. This data helps us improve design, content, and usability. Cookies are also used in marketing, ensuring that users see ads and promotions relevant to their interests. By using cookies responsibly, we balance website functionality with user privacy.

5. Essential Cookies

Essential cookies are the backbone of website functionality. Without them, certain features may not work correctly. For example, login sessions rely on these cookies to keep you signed in while navigating through multiple pages. They also ensure that transactions, forms, and secure areas of the website function properly.

These cookies cannot be switched off in our systems, as they are critical for delivering core services. Essential cookies are not used for advertising or tracking. Instead, they exist solely to ensure stability, security, and usability. While you can block or delete them through your browser, doing so may result in parts of the site not functioning as intended.

6. Performance and Analytics Cookies

Performance and analytics cookies help us measure how visitors interact with our website. They collect anonymous data such as the number of visitors, the pages viewed, and the time spent on each page. This information is essential for understanding what works well and what needs improvement.

For instance, we use these cookies to identify broken links, track popular content, and analyze user behavior patterns. Tools like Google Analytics are often integrated for this purpose. These cookies do not collect personal details like names or email addresses but instead focus on improving site efficiency. By accepting analytics cookies, you contribute to a better, faster, and more user-friendly experience.

7. Functionality Cookies

Functionality cookies are designed to make your visit more convenient. They remember your choices, such as language settings, region, or login credentials, so you don’t need to re-enter them every time. For example, if you select your preferred city or service, functionality cookies will recall that selection the next time you visit.

These cookies enhance user experience by delivering a more personalized environment. They also support features like live chat tools, saved forms, or customized dashboards. While they are not strictly necessary for the website to run, they make the browsing experience smoother and more enjoyable. If you disable them, you may need to manually set preferences each time you return.

8. Advertising and Targeting Cookies

Advertising and targeting cookies are used to deliver content that matches your interests. They track browsing habits across websites and allow advertisers to display relevant ads based on your activity. For example, if you research company registration services, you may see related ads on other platforms.

These cookies are also used to limit the number of times you see the same advertisement and measure the effectiveness of campaigns. While they help fund free online services by supporting digital advertising, they also raise privacy concerns. Therefore, you always have the option to accept or decline targeting cookies, depending on your preference.

---

9. Third-Party Cookies

Third-party cookies are placed by external organizations rather than our website. They are often linked to services such as embedded videos, social media plugins, or analytics tools. For example, when you share content through platforms like Facebook or LinkedIn, those sites may place their own cookies on your browser.

These cookies help improve functionality but also involve data sharing with outside providers. As a result, third-party cookies may track your browsing across multiple websites. We recommend reviewing the privacy policies of these third parties for more details on how your data is used. You can manage or block third-party cookies through your browser settings.

10. How to Manage or Disable Cookies

You have full control over cookies and can manage them through your browser settings. Most browsers allow you to block, delete, or disable cookies altogether. Popular browsers such as Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, Safari, and Microsoft Edge provide clear instructions for cookie management.

While disabling cookies can enhance privacy, it may also reduce functionality. Features like saved logins, shopping carts, or personalized settings may no longer work properly. Therefore, it is important to strike a balance by choosing which cookies to allow. Regularly reviewing your cookie preferences ensures that your browsing experience remains safe and efficient.

11. User Consent for Cookies

Before setting non-essential cookies, websites must obtain user consent. This is usually done through a cookie banner or pop-up that appears when you first visit the site. By clicking “Accept” or continuing to use the site, you agree to the placement of cookies as described in this policy.

Consent is a legal requirement under regulations like GDPR. Users should also have the option to customize their cookie preferences, allowing them to accept only certain categories of cookies. Transparency is essential, and that is why we clearly explain what each type of cookie does and how it affects your browsing experience.

12. Updates to This Cookie Policy

We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time to reflect changes in technology, law, or business practices. Any updates will be posted on this page with a revised “last updated” date. Regularly checking this policy ensures that you stay informed about how cookies are used.

If significant changes are made, you may be notified through a website banner or email (if applicable). Continued use of our website after updates means you agree to the revised policy. Staying informed about these changes helps you understand how your data is managed and ensures that your privacy is protected.
