At Trade Buddy, we value your trust and are committed to being clear about how we collect and use your data. This Cookie Policy explains what cookies are, how we use them, and how you can manage your preferences to ensure the best experience with our platform.
What are cookies?
Cookies are small text files stored on your device or web browser. These files contain information that helps websites recognize your device and tailor your experience. They typically include:
- Domain information: The website they come from.
- Expiration date: How long they’ll stay on your device.
- Unique identifier: A randomly generated number or code.
- Additional data: Information like your preferences, browsing activity, and interactions on our platform.
Cookies are essential for providing a seamless and personalized experience, making your interactions with Trade Buddy faster and more efficient.
How we use cookies.
- Essential functions: These cookies are crucial for our platform to function properly. They enable features like logging in, saving your preferences, and maintaining a secure environment by detecting malicious activity.
- Analytics and performance: These cookies help us understand how Trade Buddy is used. By analyzing data such as page visits and user interactions, we can identify areas for improvement and create a smoother, more efficient experience for you.
- Advertising and marketing: These cookies make our marketing efforts more effective by ensuring the ads you see are relevant to your interests. They also help us measure the success of our campaigns and prevent repetitive ads from being displayed.
- Personalization: Cookies enable us to remember your preferences and provide recommendations that match your interests, creating a more tailored experience every time you visit.
Managing your cookie preferences
We believe you should have control over your data. Here’s how you can manage your cookie settings:
- In your browser: Most web browsers allow you to manage or delete cookies through their settings. You can typically choose to accept, reject, or block certain types of cookies. Check your browser’s help section for detailed instructions.
- Interest-based ads: You can opt out of interest-based ads through tools like the Digital Advertising Alliance or Your Online Choices. Keep in mind that opting out won’t eliminate ads — it will simply prevent them from being tailored to your interests.
What happens if you disable cookies?
While you can manage your preferences, it’s important to note that disabling certain types of cookies may affect your experience. For example:
- Essential cookies are necessary for core functions like logging in and saving your settings. Without them, some features may not work as expected.
- Disabling analytics cookies may limit our ability to identify and fix issues, potentially impacting performance.
- Opting out of advertising cookies may result in less relevant ads but won’t stop ads entirely.
