What are cookies
A cookie is a small text file that a web server sends to the browser, and the browser saves on the device. Each time a page is opened, the browser sends this file back to the server so that the website recognizes the user and their settings. The browser does not transfer cookies from one website to other resources.
For the purposes of this policy, cookies also include similar technologies — for example, the browser's local storage. The operator of data processed through cookies is ООО «Лоял Гифт», ИНН 5904404567; details are provided in the privacy policy.
What cookies the service uses
Strictly necessary cookies are essential for the correct functioning of the website: they support sessions, protect forms from request forgery, save login status and interface settings, ensure security, and prevent fraud. This category cannot be disabled — without it, the service cannot function.
Analytical cookies collect information about how the website is used — to improve navigation, quality, and convenience of the service, and to fix technical errors. Marketing cookies may be used to show relevant offers and evaluate campaign effectiveness.
Analytical and marketing cookies are used only where they are enabled in a specific instance of the service. If such cookies are not enabled, the site uses only strictly necessary ones.
What data can be contained in cookies
Depending on the type of cookie and the user's device, cookies may contain technical information: user and session identifiers, IP address, information about the browser, operating system and device, location data at the country and city level, number of pages viewed, duration of stay on the site, the pages and queries from which the user arrived, information about actions on the site and errors encountered.
Why cookies are processed
Cookies are processed to ensure the full and correct functioning of the website, store user settings, maintain security, develop and improve the product, conduct analytical and statistical research, and, where enabled, generate relevant offers.
Processing is carried out using automation tools: collection, recording, systematization, accumulation, storage, clarification, extraction, use, transfer, anonymization, blocking, deletion, and destruction. Cookies are processed from the start of website use until the purposes of processing are achieved or the user refuses, taking into account the lifespan of the cookies themselves.
To whom cookies can be transferred
For analytics, the operator may engage third-party analytics services and transfer cookie data to them — only on the basis of concluded contracts or agreements and only to the extent necessary for the service to function. If such a transfer requires moving data to another country, the operator follows the procedures required by applicable law.
Third-party services process the received data in accordance with their own terms of use and privacy policies.
How to manage cookies and opt out
Strictly necessary cookies cannot be disabled, but they can be deleted after you finish using the site. Cookies are stored on your device, so you can manage them — block, limit, and delete — in your browser settings. Data in the browser’s local storage is not automatically deleted after expiration — you must delete it manually.
Instructions for popular browsers:
Note: blocking strictly necessary cookies may make login and some website functions unavailable.
Security
The operator takes technical, organizational, and legal measures to protect user data, including cookies, from unauthorized or accidental access, destruction, modification, blocking, copying, and distribution. These measures are implemented taking into account the requirements of applicable law, the current state of technology, and the nature of the information processed.
Policy changes
Changes and additions may be made to this policy. The updated version is published at https://research.teal.band/cookies and takes effect upon publication. We do not send separate notifications about changes, so we recommend reviewing this page periodically.
Data processing issues not covered by this policy are governed by the privacy policy.
