Cookie Policy

This Cookie Policy explains how Zazoony uses cookies and similar technologies to recognize you when you visit our platform. It explains what these technologies are and why we use them.

1. What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small data files that are placed on your computer or mobile device when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites work more efficiently and provide reporting information.

2. Why We Use Cookies

We use cookies and similar tracking technologies for the following purposes:

• To enable certain functions of our service
• To provide authentication and security
• To remember your preferences
• To understand how you use our platform (in the future)

3. Types of Cookies We Use

Essential Cookies

These cookies are necessary for the website to function and cannot be switched off. They are usually set in response to actions you take, such as logging in or filling in forms.

• Authentication cookies: Set by Clerk to manage your login session
• Security cookies: Help protect against fraudulent login attempts
• Session cookies: Maintain your session state while using the platform

Functional Cookies

These cookies enable the website to provide enhanced functionality and personalization.

• Preference cookies: Remember your settings and preferences
• Language cookies: Remember your language selection (if applicable)

Future Cookie Usage

We may implement analytics and performance cookies in the future to help us understand how visitors use our website. We will update this policy and notify you before implementing such cookies.

4. Third-Party Cookies

Some cookies are placed by third-party services that appear on our pages:

• Clerk: Sets authentication and session management cookies
• Stripe: May set cookies during payment processing (on their hosted pages)

5. Local Storage

In addition to cookies, we use local storage technologies:

• Clerk stores authentication tokens in localStorage for persistent login
• We may store user preferences in localStorage for better performance

Local storage functions similarly to cookies but with larger storage capacity and doesn't get sent with every server request.

6. Cookie Duration

Cookies can be either "session" or "persistent" cookies:

• Session cookies: Deleted when you close your browser
• Persistent cookies: Remain until they expire or you delete them

Authentication cookies set by Clerk are typically persistent to keep you logged in between sessions.

7. Your Cookie Choices

You have several options for managing cookies:

Browser Settings

Most web browsers allow you to control cookies through their settings. You can:

• View what cookies are stored
• Allow or block cookies
• Delete cookies already stored
• Block third-party cookies

Impact of Blocking Cookies

Please note that blocking essential cookies may prevent you from logging in or using core features of our platform. We recommend allowing essential cookies for the best experience.

8. Do Not Track Signals

Some browsers include a "Do Not Track" feature that signals to websites you visit that you do not want your online activity tracked. Currently, our platform does not respond to Do Not Track signals as we only use essential cookies for authentication.

9. Updates to This Policy

We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices or for operational, legal, or regulatory reasons. The "Last Updated" date at the top indicates when this policy was last revised.
