COOKIE POLICY

This Cookie Policy explains how Zodier LTD ("Company," "we," "us," "our"), a company registered in England and Wales with company number 17374138, operating the website https://zodier.org (the "Site") and related services (collectively, the "Services"), uses cookies and similar tracking technologies when you visit or use our Services. It should be read together with our Privacy Policy.

By continuing to browse or use our Services, you agree that we can store and access cookies and similar technologies as described in this Cookie Policy, subject to the choices you make through our cookie consent tool.

1. WHAT ARE COOKIES?

Cookies are small text files that are placed on your computer or mobile device when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites work, or work more efficiently, as well as to provide information to the owners of the site. Cookies set by the website owner (in this case, Zodier) are called "first-party cookies." Cookies set by parties other than the website owner are called "third-party cookies." Third-party cookies enable third-party features or functionality to be provided on or through the website (such as analytics, advertising, and interactive content).

In addition to cookies, we may use other similar technologies, such as web beacons, pixels, and local storage, which we refer to collectively as "cookies" in this policy for simplicity, unless stated otherwise.

2. HOW WE USE COOKIES AND MANAGE YOUR CONSENT

When you first visit zodier.org, a cookie banner will ask for your explicit consent before any non-essential cookies are placed on your device. You can accept all cookies, reject all non-essential cookies, or customize your preferences by category through the banner. You can change or withdraw your consent at any time by clicking the cookie settings link, typically located in the footer of our website, or by clearing your cookies through your browser settings.

Because our Services are used by visitors from the European Union, United Kingdom, United States, Canada, and Australia, we apply cookie consent standards designed to meet the requirements of the strictest applicable regime (including the EU's GDPR and ePrivacy rules), regardless of where you are located.

3. TYPES OF COOKIES WE USE

Strictly Necessary Cookies

These cookies are essential to provide you with the Services and to use some of its features, such as the ability to log in, maintain your session, remember your cookie consent preferences, and access secure areas of the Site. Because these cookies are strictly necessary to deliver the Services, you cannot refuse them. You can block or delete them through your browser settings, but doing so may cause parts of the Site to stop working correctly.

Performance and Analytics Cookies

These cookies collect information about how visitors use our Site — for instance, which pages visitors go to most often, how long they stay, and if they encounter error messages. This helps us improve how our Services work and understand what content is most useful to our users. These cookies do not directly identify you.

Provider example: Google Analytics

Functional / Preference Cookies

These cookies allow the Site to remember choices you make (such as your language, region, or display preferences) and provide enhanced, more personalized features.

Marketing / Targeting Cookies

These cookies are used to make advertising messages more relevant to you and your interests. They also perform functions such as preventing the same ad from continuously reappearing, ensuring that ads are properly displayed, and, in some cases, selecting advertisements based on your interests. These cookies may be set by us or by third-party advertising partners with our permission.

Provider example: Meta Pixel (Facebook/Instagram)

Payment Processing Cookies

These cookies are set by our payment processor to facilitate secure checkout, detect and prevent fraud, and process your subscription payment. These cookies are considered strictly necessary to complete a purchase you have requested.

Provider example: Stripe

4. THIRD-PARTY SERVICE PROVIDERS

We work with the following categories of third-party service providers, who may set cookies or process data through cookies on our Site in order to help us operate, secure, and improve the Services:

Each of these providers processes data in accordance with their own privacy policies, and, where applicable, under contractual data processing terms with us that require them to protect your information and use it only for the purposes we specify.

5. HOW LONG DO COOKIES LAST?

Cookies can remain on your device for different periods of time:

• Session cookies last only as long as your browser session and are deleted automatically once you close your browser.
• Persistent cookies remain on your device after you close your browser, until they expire or you delete them manually. Depending on the cookie, this can range from a few days to up to 24 months (for example, your cookie consent preference is typically stored for up to 12 months).

6. INTERNATIONAL DATA TRANSFERS

Our Services are hosted in Germany (European Union). Data collected via cookies may be transferred to, stored, and processed in Germany and in other countries where our third-party service providers operate, including the United States and United Kingdom. Where personal information is transferred outside of the European Economic Area, United Kingdom, or Switzerland, we rely on the European Commission's Standard Contractual Clauses or equivalent legal safeguards, as described in more detail in our Privacy Policy.

7. YOUR CHOICES AND HOW TO MANAGE COOKIES

You have several options to manage or limit how we and our third-party partners use cookies:

• Cookie consent banner. You can accept, reject, or customize non-essential cookie categories at any time through the cookie banner displayed on our Site, or by re-opening your cookie preferences via the link in our website footer.
• Browser settings. Most web browsers allow you to control cookies through their settings, including blocking or deleting cookies. Please note that if you choose to block or delete cookies, certain features of our Services may not function properly.
• Opting out of analytics. You can opt out of Google Analytics tracking by installing the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on.
• Opting out of interest-based advertising. You can manage advertising cookies through industry opt-out tools such as the Network Advertising Initiative and the Digital Advertising Alliance.
• Do Not Track. At this time, we do not respond to "Do Not Track" browser signals, as no uniform industry standard for recognizing such signals currently exists. This is further explained in our Privacy Policy.

Please note that if you disable or refuse cookies, some parts of our Services may become inaccessible or not function properly, particularly features related to logging in, checkout, and personalization.

8. CALIFORNIA AND OTHER US STATE PRIVACY RIGHTS

If you are a resident of California or another US state with applicable privacy legislation, the use of certain cookies for targeted advertising and analytics purposes may be considered a "sale" or "sharing" of personal information under laws such as the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA), as amended by the California Privacy Rights Act (CPRA). You can exercise your rights to opt out of this processing by adjusting your cookie preferences through our cookie banner, or by contacting us as described in Section 10 below. For more information about your rights, please see the relevant section of our Privacy Policy.
