Cookies Policy

We use cookies to enhance your online experience and provide you with relevant information about our services. This Cookies Policy explains what cookies are, how we use them, and how you can manage their usage.

What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small files that contain data which is stored on the user's device (e.g., computer or mobile phone) when a website is visited. They help websites remember information about your visit, preferences, and actions so that we can improve your browsing experience.

Why Do We Use Cookies?

We use cookies for various purposes:

  • To enhance security by recognizing devices and preventing unauthorized access.
  • To optimize platform performance, such as faster loading times and improved responsiveness.
  • To offer personalized content based on user preferences, interests, or behavior.
  • To enable login/session continuity across multiple pages of the website.
  • To provide aggregated analytics information to improve our services.

Types of Cookies

There are several types of cookies:

  1. Essential Cookies: These cookies are necessary for basic functionality, such as navigation and logging in. They do not collect personal data or store user preferences.
  2. Session Cookies: Session cookies expire when you close your browser. We use them to track user interactions with our website while they are active.
  3. Persistent Cookies: Persistent cookies remain on your device even after closing the browser. We use them for login/session continuity and personalized content delivery.
  4. Functional Cookies: Functional cookies help us understand how users interact with our services, such as what pages are visited or which buttons are clicked.

Analytics and Performance Cookies

We also use analytics and performance cookies to:

  • Monitor website traffic and usage patterns
  • Gather data on user interactions (e.g., mouse movements, scrolling behavior)
  • Test new features and evaluate their impact

These cookies do not collect personally identifiable information but help us refine our services for better performance.

Preference and Language Settings

We use cookies to store your language settings, display preferences (e.g., date format), or content blocking settings. These choices are specific to the website you're currently browsing.

Login/Session Continuity

When logging in, we use session cookies to track login credentials and authenticate users for access control purposes.

Device Recognition

Cookies enable us to recognize returning devices from your account(s) or on-going usage sessions by storing unique identifiers (device IDs).

Security-Related Cookies

We may place security-related cookies to protect our services against unauthorized access. This includes cookies that prevent brute-force login attempts, cross-site request forgery attacks, or clickjacking.

Browser Storage Technologies

Modern browsers include storage technologies like Web Storage and IndexedDB. We might use these for various purposes such as session handling or caching.

Third-Party Integrations

Our website may integrate third-party services (e.g., social media buttons), which also place cookies on your device to track their performance, user interaction with those features, etc.

Marketing/Communication Preferences

If you have expressed interest in receiving communications from us, we might use cookies to tailor marketing content based on past actions or preferences.

Cookie Consent Management

As per relevant regulations and guidelines, users are given the option to manage cookie consent through our website settings. If you choose not to allow non-essential cookies, most features of our service should still be available.

Browser Cookie Controls

Most browsers offer controls for managing cookies, such as blocking third-party or all cookies entirely.

Clearing/Disabling Cookies

You can delete and/or block cookies in your browser; however, disabling essential cookies might result in some website functionality limitations.

Site Functionality Impact When Cookies are Disabled

While most site features should remain available even with cookie restrictions, performance-related analytics may be limited or not tracked. Additionally, certain login/session continuity features rely on persistence mechanisms which could cause user experience issues when blocked by browsers.

Technical Diagnostics and Performance Optimisation

We engage in ongoing technical diagnostics to refine the website's functionality, speed, and efficiency.

Aggregated Analytics Information

While our analytics do provide a high level of specificity regarding individual user behaviors, all aggregate data is anonymized and subject to strict access controls. We never share detailed reports with third parties or disclose them publicly.
