9.1 What are Cookies?
Our Website uses cookies and other similar tracking technologies (such as web beacons, pixel tags, and local storage). Cookies are small text files that are stored on your browser when you visit a website. They help us understand how you use our website, remember your preferences, and improve your overall experience.
9.2 Types of Cookies We Use
Based on their function and legal requirements, we classify cookies into the following categories:
-
Strictly Necessary Cookies (Essential) : These cookies are essential for the website to function properly. They enable you to navigate the site and use core features (such as secure areas). These cookies do not require your prior consent.
-
Analytics / Performance Cookies: These cookies help us understand how visitors interact with our website (e.g., which pages are visited most often, how users navigate). This allows us to optimise website performance, identify errors, and improve our services. We use Wix's built‑in analytics tools, and may also integrate third‑party analytics services (such as Google Analytics) via the Wix platform to collect this data. These tools may use cookies to gather information such as your IP address and browsing behaviour.
