Introduction
Welcome to WebOpine! This Cookie Policy explains what cookies are, how we use them on our platform, and what choices you have regarding their use. This policy should be read alongside our Privacy Policy, which provides more detail on how we handle your personal data.
By using the WebOpine platform, you are consenting to the use of cookies as described in this policy.
1. What are Cookies?
A cookie is a small text file that a website stores on your computer or mobile device when you visit the site. It enables the website to remember your actions and preferences (such as login, language, font size, and other display preferences) over a period of time, so you don’t have to keep re-entering them whenever you come back to the site or browse from one page to another.
In this policy, when we refer to "cookies", we also include other similar technologies that store or access information on your device, such as:
Pixels: Small, transparent image files on a web page or in an email that can track your interactions.
Tracking Codes: Snippets of code used to measure user interactions, such as visits and clicks.
2. How We Use Cookies
We use cookies for several important reasons, which we have grouped into the following categories:
a) Strictly Necessary Cookies
These cookies are essential for you to browse the platform and use its features, such as accessing secure areas of the site. Without these cookies, services like logging into your account or processing user actions cannot be provided. You cannot opt out of these cookies as they are fundamental to the platform's operation.
Examples: Keeping you logged in during your session, ensuring platform security, and remembering your cookie consent choices.
b) Performance and Analytics Cookies
These cookies collect information about how you use our platform, such as which pages you visit most often and if you receive error messages from web pages. This data is aggregated and anonymous and helps us understand user behaviour to improve how our platform works.
Examples: We use services like Google Analytics to understand traffic patterns, identify popular content, and diagnose technical issues.
c) Functionality Cookies
These cookies allow our platform to remember choices you make (such as your user name, language, or the region you are in) and provide enhanced, more personal features. They can also be used to remember changes you have made to text size, fonts, and other parts of web pages that you can customize.
Examples: Remembering your preferred language, showing you relevant reviews based on your location, and saving your user preferences.
d) Targeting and Advertising Cookies
These cookies are used to deliver advertisements that are more relevant to you and your interests. They are also used to limit the number of times you see an advertisement as well as help measure the effectiveness of an advertising campaign. They are usually placed by advertising networks with the website operator’s permission. They remember that you have visited a website and this information is shared with other organizations such as advertisers.
Examples: Showing you ads for businesses or products based on your browsing history on our platform or other sites.
3. Third-Party Cookies
Some cookies on our platform are set by third-party services we use. For example, when you watch a video embedded from YouTube or share a review on a social network like Facebook, those services may set their own cookies on your device.
We do not control the placement of these cookies and you should check the relevant third-party website for more information about their cookie policies. Major third parties who may set cookies include:
Google (for Analytics and Advertising)
Facebook (for social plugins and advertising)
Twitter, LinkedIn, and other social networks
Our business partners and advertising networks
