1. What Are Cookies

Cookies are small text files that are placed on your device (computer, smartphone, tablet) when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites work more efficiently, provide a better user experience, and supply information to website operators.

The Platform uses cookies and similar technologies (such as local storage) to ensure the proper functioning of our services, remember your preferences, and improve your experience.

2. Types of Cookies We Use

Strictly Necessary Cookies: These cookies are essential for the Platform to function and cannot be disabled. They are used for: user authentication and session management, security features (CSRF protection, fraud prevention), load balancing and infrastructure management. Without these cookies, the Platform cannot operate properly.

Security Cookies: Some cookies are used specifically to detect suspicious activity, prevent fraud, and protect the integrity of user accounts. These cookies are essential for the safe operation of a cryptocurrency service platform.

Functional Cookies: These cookies allow the Platform to remember your preferences and choices, such as: your selected language (stored in local storage as "krypta-lang"), interface settings and display preferences. These cookies enhance your experience but are not strictly required for the Platform to function.

Analytics Cookies: We may use analytics cookies to understand how users interact with the Platform, including: pages visited and time spent on each page, navigation patterns and feature usage, error occurrences and performance metrics. This data is collected in aggregate and is used solely to improve the Platform's functionality and user experience.

3. User Consent

Analytics and functional cookies are set only after obtaining your consent, except for strictly necessary cookies which are required for the Platform to function. Strictly necessary and security cookies do not require consent as they are essential for providing the service you have requested.

Upon your first visit to the Platform, a cookie notification banner is displayed, allowing you to accept or decline non-essential cookies. You may change your cookie preferences at any time through the Platform's settings.

If you decline non-essential cookies, the Platform will continue to function using only strictly necessary and security cookies, although some features may be limited.

Strictly necessary cookies (including authentication-related cookies) are retained for the duration of your session or for a period necessary to maintain your login state, typically up to 30 days. Functional cookies (such as language preference) may be retained for up to 12 months. Analytics cookies, if accepted, are retained for up to 12 months.

5. Third-Party Cookies

The Platform may use third-party services that set their own cookies. These may include analytics providers and security services. We do not control third-party cookies, and their use is subject to the respective third party's privacy and cookie policies.

Such third-party services may process data outside your country of residence. Where personal data is transferred outside the European Economic Area (EEA) or other regions with data protection regulations, appropriate safeguards are implemented in accordance with applicable law.

Cookies are not used to sell personal data to third parties. The Platform does not engage in the sale or commercial sharing of personal data collected through cookies or similar technologies.

6. Local Storage

In addition to cookies, the Platform uses browser local storage to persist certain data on your device, including: language preference ("krypta-lang"), data necessary to maintain the user session, and user interface state. Local storage data remains on your device until explicitly cleared by you or by the Platform's code.

7. Managing Cookies

You can manage or delete cookies through your browser settings. Most browsers allow you to: view what cookies are stored and delete them individually, block third-party cookies, block all cookies from specific or all sites, delete all cookies when you close the browser.
