This Cookies Policy explains how Profizzer uses cookies and similar technologies when you visit our platform (the "Service"). It should be read alongside our Privacy Policy, which describes how we handle personal data more broadly.

2. What Are Cookies

Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites work efficiently, improve user experience, and provide information to site operators.

We also use similar technologies such as local storage, pixel tags, and session identifiers. Throughout this Policy we refer to all of these collectively as "cookies".

3. Types of Cookies We Use

3.1 Strictly Necessary Cookies

These cookies are essential to operate the Service. They enable core features such as authentication, session continuity, and security. The Service cannot function properly without them, and they cannot be disabled through our preferences.

3.2 Functional Cookies

These cookies remember choices you make to provide a more personalized experience, such as language preference or interface settings. Disabling them may affect the usability of certain features.

3.3 Performance & Analytics Cookies

These cookies help us understand how visitors interact with the Service by collecting aggregated, non-identifying information about page visits, errors, and load times. We use this information to monitor and improve platform performance.

3.4 Security Cookies

These cookies support fraud prevention, abuse detection, and the protection of account data. They help us identify suspicious activity and maintain a safe environment for our members.

4. Third-Party Cookies

Some cookies on the Service may be set by trusted third parties that provide functionality on our behalf, such as analytics providers, content delivery networks, or authentication services. These providers are bound by contractual obligations and are not permitted to use the data they collect for their own purposes beyond what we have authorized.

A list of the third parties we currently work with is available on request through the contact details below.

Please note that blocking or deleting certain cookies may affect the functionality of the Service, including your ability to remain signed in.

6. Cookie Duration

Cookies can be either "session" or "persistent". Session cookies are temporary and are deleted when you close your browser. Persistent cookies remain on your device for a set period or until you delete them manually.

We retain cookies only for as long as necessary for the purpose for which they were set, in accordance with our internal retention practices and applicable law.
