Cookie Policy

This Cookie Policy explains how Noissime Ltd ("Noissime", "we", "us", or "our") uses cookies and similar tracking technologies when you visit our website and use our services. It should be read alongside our Privacy Policy.

1. What Are Cookies

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

Cookies can be "persistent" (remaining on your device until they expire or you delete them) or "session" cookies (deleted when you close your browser). They can be set by the website you are visiting ("first-party cookies") or by third parties whose services appear on the page ("third-party cookies").

2. Cookies We Use

2.1 Essential Cookies

These cookies are strictly necessary for the operation of our website and platform. They enable core functionality such as page navigation, access to secure areas, and session management. You cannot opt out of these cookies as the website cannot function properly without them.

• Session management: maintaining your login state and user preferences during a browsing session.
• Security: supporting authentication and helping to prevent fraudulent use of accounts.
• Cookie consent: remembering your cookie preferences so we don't ask you repeatedly.
• Load balancing: distributing traffic across our servers to ensure consistent performance and availability.
• CSRF protection: safeguarding form submissions against cross-site request forgery attacks.

2.2 Analytics Cookies

These cookies help us understand how visitors interact with our website by collecting and reporting information anonymously. We use this data to improve site performance, identify popular content, and enhance the user experience.

• Page views and navigation: tracking which pages are visited and how users move through the site.
• Performance metrics: measuring page load times and identifying technical issues.
• Aggregated usage data: understanding broad patterns of use without identifying individual visitors.

2.3 Functional Cookies

These cookies allow our website to remember choices you make (such as your language, region, or display preferences) and provide enhanced, more personalised features. They may also be used to provide services you have requested, such as watching a video or using a live chat tool.

• Language and region: remembering your preferred language and regional settings so content is displayed accordingly on subsequent visits.
• Display preferences: storing layout or theme choices, such as dashboard configurations within the platform.
• Embedded content: enabling the playback of embedded videos, interactive charts, and other third-party media components.

2.4 Marketing Cookies

These cookies are used to deliver advertisements and promotional content that is relevant to you and your interests. They may also be used to limit the number of times you see an advertisement and to measure the effectiveness of advertising campaigns. Marketing cookies are only set with your explicit consent.

• Ad targeting: delivering relevant advertisements based on your interests and browsing behaviour.
• Campaign measurement: tracking conversions and the effectiveness of our marketing efforts.
• Social media: enabling content sharing and interaction with social platforms.

3. Managing Cookies

When you first visit our website, we display a cookie consent banner that allows you to accept or decline non-essential cookies. You can change your preferences at any time.

You can also control cookies through your browser settings. Most browsers allow you to:

• View what cookies are stored and delete them individually or in bulk.
• Block third-party cookies.
• Block cookies from specific websites.
• Block all cookies from being set.
• Delete all cookies when you close your browser.

Please note that blocking or deleting certain cookies may affect the functionality of our website. Essential cookies cannot be disabled as they are required for the site to operate. If you choose to block analytics or functional cookies, some features such as personalised content recommendations and usage-based improvements may not work as expected.

For more information on managing cookies in your specific browser, visit your browser's help documentation:

• Google Chrome: Navigate to Settings > Privacy and security > Cookies and other site data. From here you can block third-party cookies, clear cookies on exit, or manage site-specific permissions.
• Mozilla Firefox: Navigate to Settings > Privacy & Security > Cookies and Site Data. Firefox offers Standard, Strict, and Custom tracking protection modes for granular control.
• Apple Safari: Navigate to Preferences > Privacy > Manage Website Data. Safari blocks cross-site tracking by default through Intelligent Tracking Prevention.
• Microsoft Edge: Navigate to Settings > Privacy, search, and services > Cookies and site permissions. Edge provides Basic, Balanced, and Strict tracking prevention levels.

You may also manage cookies through browser extensions or privacy tools such as browser-based do-not-track settings. Please be aware that our website does not currently respond to Do Not Track (DNT) signals, as there is no universally accepted standard for how DNT should be interpreted.

4. Third-Party Cookies

Some cookies on our website are set by third-party services that appear on our pages. We do not control these third-party cookies. The third parties that may set cookies through our website include:

• Analytics providers: to help us understand website usage and improve our services.
• Advertising networks: to deliver relevant advertisements (only with your consent).
• Social media platforms: to enable social sharing features and track referral traffic.

We recommend reviewing the privacy and cookie policies of these third-party services for more information about their data practices.

5. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time to reflect changes in the cookies we use, changes in technology, or updates to applicable regulations.
