Cookie Policy

1. Scope of This Cookie Policy

This Policy applies to cookies and similar technologies used through the Evolution Zenith website, account pages, platform interfaces and related online services.

It should be read together with the Privacy Policy, which explains how personal information may be collected, used, retained, shared and protected.

Independent exchanges, payment processors and external websites may use their own technologies under separate policies that Evolution Zenith does not control.

2. What Cookies Are

A cookie is a small data file that a website asks a browser to store on a device. Cookies may allow a website to recognise a browser, maintain a session, remember a preference or understand how a service is used.

Cookies may be temporary or persistent:

• Session cookies usually expire when the browser session ends.
• Persistent cookies remain until their configured expiry date or until the user removes them.

A cookie does not automatically provide access to wallet private keys, exchange passwords or files stored elsewhere on a device.

3. Similar Storage and Access Technologies

This Policy also applies, where relevant, to technologies that perform functions similar to cookies.

These may include:

• browser local storage;
• session storage;
• software development kit identifiers;
• authentication tokens;
• security and fraud-prevention identifiers;
• tracking pixels or tags;
• embedded third-party content;
• device or browser configuration signals.

The rules that apply may depend on the technology, its purpose, the information accessed and the user’s location.

4. Categories of Technologies

5. Cookie and Technology Inventory

The exact identifiers, providers and durations used by Evolution Zenith depend on the active website configuration, installed WordPress components, consent tool, analytics configuration and embedded services.

6. Strictly Necessary Technologies

Strictly necessary technologies support functions that are required to provide a service requested by the user or to operate essential security and account functionality.

They may be used to:

• maintain a website or account session;
• authenticate a registered user;
• protect forms against abuse or automated attacks;
• route network requests securely;
• balance website traffic;
• store cookie-consent choices;
• protect account and payment workflows;
• provide a function explicitly requested by the user.

Blocking these technologies may prevent the website, account, forms or security features from working correctly.

7. Functional Technologies

Functional technologies may remember optional choices and provide an enhanced or more personalised interface.

They may be used to remember:

• language or regional preferences;
• interface display settings;
• selected filters or workspace views;
• accessibility preferences;
• optional embedded-service choices.

If these technologies are disabled, core functions may remain available, but some preferences may need to be selected again.

8. Analytics and Performance Technologies

Analytics technologies may help Evolution Zenith understand how visitors navigate the website, where errors occur and which pages or functions require improvement.

Analytics information may include:

• pages viewed and navigation sequences;
• approximate visit duration;
• browser, device and operating-system categories;
• referring page or campaign source;
• website errors and performance events;
• aggregated interaction measurements;
• general region derived from network information.

Analytics tools should be configured with reasonable data-minimisation, retention and access controls.

9. Marketing and Advertising Technologies

If Evolution Zenith uses advertising or marketing measurement tools, those technologies may be used to measure campaigns, understand referral sources or present more relevant communications.

They may allow an external provider to recognise a browser across websites or services. Such technologies should not be activated before the required user choice has been made.

This Policy does not state that Evolution Zenith currently uses every possible advertising technology. The live cookie settings interface should reflect the actual website configuration.

10. First-Party and Third-Party Technologies

First-party technologies

First-party technologies are set or controlled through the Evolution Zenith website domain. They may support sessions, security, consent and interface preferences.

Third-party technologies

Third-party technologies may be set by external services embedded in or connected to the website.

Examples may include:

• analytics providers;
• payment processors;
• video or media platforms;
• embedded form providers;
• security and fraud-prevention services;
• advertising or campaign providers;
• external exchange or market-data interfaces.

Third parties may process information under their own terms and privacy policies. Evolution Zenith does not control the retention or processing practices of an independent provider.

11. Cookie Consent and User Choices

Where required, the cookie interface should allow users to accept, reject or configure non-essential categories before those technologies are activated.

Withdrawing consent should not affect processing that occurred lawfully before the preference was changed.

Deleting a consent-preference cookie may cause the consent interface to be displayed again during a later visit.

12. Browser and Device Controls

Most browsers allow users to review, remove or block cookies through browser settings.

Depending on the browser, users may be able to:

• view stored cookies and website data;
• delete cookies for a particular website;
• block all or selected cookies;
• clear local and session storage;
• restrict third-party cookies;
• receive a notification before storage is used;
• use private or limited-storage browsing modes.

Browser-level blocking may affect account sessions, forms, saved preferences and other website functions.

13. Cookie and Storage Duration

The storage period depends on the purpose and configuration of each technology.

A technology may remain:

• only during the current browser session;
• until the user signs out;
• until a short security period expires;
• until a saved preference is renewed;
• for a configured analytics period;
• until the user deletes it through browser settings;
• until the provider’s configured expiry date.

Retention periods should be reviewed periodically and should not be longer than reasonably necessary for the stated purpose.

14. Cookies and Personal Information

Some cookie identifiers, IP addresses, device signals or usage records may qualify as personal information or become linked to an account.

Where cookie-related information is personal information, its processing is also governed by the Evolution Zenith Privacy Policy.

Depending on the applicable law, users may have rights to request access, correction, deletion, restriction, objection or withdrawal of consent.

15. Changes to This Cookie Policy

This Policy may be updated when website technologies, providers, consent practices or legal requirements change.

The revised page will display an updated date. Material changes may also be communicated through the cookie interface, website or another available channel where appropriate.

Users are encouraged to review their cookie settings periodically, particularly after major website changes.
