What are cookies?#

Cookies are small text files placed on a device by a website or service. They store identifiers and configuration information that helps the site remember preferences, perform analytics, and provide personalized experiences. This policy covers first‑party cookies set by our domain and third‑party cookies set by external services integrated into this pre‑launch site.

Types of cookies we use#

We classify cookies into the following categories:

- Essential cookies: Required for site functionality (e.g., session identifiers, authentication). These are necessary to deliver the service and cannot be switched off without affecting the site.

- Performance and analytics cookies: Help us measure and improve site performance (e.g., anonymized usage statistics, page load metrics).

- Functional cookies: Remember user preferences such as language, display options, and consent choices to enhance experience.

- Targeting and advertising cookies: Used to deliver relevant advertising and measure campaign effectiveness. These may be set by third parties and are subject to their policies.

How we use cookies#

Cookies support a range of lawful processing activities on this site:

- Security and authentication: to protect your session and prevent fraud.
- Performance measurement: to track anonymized, aggregate usage and optimize performance.
- Personalization: to remember your display and accessibility preferences during your visit.
- Measurement and marketing: to assess the effectiveness of campaigns and deliver relevant content.

Where required by law, we obtain consent before setting non‑essential cookies. We rely on legitimate interests for some performance and security cookies, documented in our internal data protection assessments.

Third‑party cookies#

We use a limited set of third‑party services for analytics and tag management. These providers may set their own cookies and collect data under their privacy policies. Examples often include analytics platforms and tag managers; for specific third‑party partners and their purposes, refer to our privacy policy. Where possible, we prefer vendors who adhere to recognised data protection standards and contractual safeguards.

Managing your cookies preferences#

You can manage cookies through several mechanisms:

- Cookie banner: use the controls presented when you first visit the site to accept or reject non‑essential cookies.
- Browser controls: most browsers allow blocking or deleting cookies (see your browser help for steps).
- Opt‑out tools: where available, opt‑out links are provided by third‑party vendors for advertising cookies.

If you block cookies, some site features may not function correctly. For enterprise deployments, contact our privacy team to discuss options for cookie minimization and contractual controls.

Data retention and security#

Retention periods vary by cookie type. Essential and session cookies are typically deleted at the end of a session, while analytics cookies may persist for months to enable trend analysis. We apply administrative and technical safeguards to protect cookie-derived data and limit access on a need‑to‑know basis. Retention schedules are periodically reviewed as part of our data governance program.

Changes to this policy#

We may update this cookies page as our site and services evolve. Material changes will be communicated through the site and, for enterprise customers, direct communications where contractually required. The date of last revision will be noted in the privacy policy.
