Privacy Policy & Terms of Use

We are unable to provide legal advice, but we recommend consulting a qualified legal advisor to address your business's specific situation and data handling. If your website collects personal data from customers or visitors residing in countries or regions subject to data privacy regulations, particularly if this data is shared or sold, you will likely need to comply with these regulations.

Your website's cookie policy will vary depending on the regulations you must adhere to and the types of cookies used. It is essential that this policy be written in clear and easily understandable language. Generally, it should provide precise details about the data collected using cookies, how it is used, and for what purpose.

It is also common to include information about users' or consumers' rights regarding their data and how they can exercise these rights, as well as how to contact you for this purpose.

Having a clear and comprehensive privacy policy is an essential way to build trust with your users, showing them that you respect their rights and choices regarding consent.

It is common to find several categories of essential information in a cookie policy. Note that this policy differs from the privacy policy, although it may be included within it.

Example of content to consider in a cookie policy:

• Presentation in a clear, concise, understandable, and easily accessible format.
• Written in clear and simple language, especially if children's data is processed and must be included in the privacy statement.
• Published in a timely manner, as some regulations require users to be informed before giving or refusing their consent, which is a prerequisite for data collection.
• Published free of charge.

The specific content of your cookie policy will depend on your organization's regulatory responsibilities and data processing. However, for your website, this policy should include:

• The different types and categories of cookies used.
• The lifespan of each cookie and tracker (how long they remain active on users' browsers).
• The categories of personal data/information that each cookie collects and processes.
• The purpose of each cookie (whether necessary functions, statistics, marketing, etc.).
• The third parties with whom each cookie shares personal data.
• The countries/regions to which each cookie sends personal data (if applicable).
• Information on how users can give, refuse, modify, or review their consent to the use of your website's cookies.

It is important to examine the specific types of cookies used on your website as well as the regulations that apply to your business.
