Cookie Policy

This Cookie Policy explains how Fawna uses cookies and similar technologies on its website and product experience. It should be read together with the Privacy Policy.

1. What cookies are

Cookies are small text files placed on a device when a website or online service is used. Similar technologies, including local storage, pixels, tags, and software development kits, may also store or read information from a browser or device.

Some cookies are temporary and disappear when the browser closes. Others remain for a defined period or until deleted.

2. Why Fawna uses cookies

Cookies and similar technologies may be used to:

  • Operate the website and product.
  • Authenticate users and maintain secure sessions.
  • Remember preferences and consent choices.
  • Understand how visitors and customers use Fawna.
  • Measure performance and diagnose technical issues.
  • Improve onboarding, content, navigation, and product experience.
  • Measure campaigns where non-essential cookies are enabled.

3. Essential cookies

Essential cookies support core functionality such as login, page navigation, session management, account security, fraud prevention, and saving privacy choices.

These cookies are required for the website or product to function correctly and generally cannot be disabled through a consent preference center.

4. Preference cookies

Preference cookies remember choices that improve the experience, such as interface settings, region, language, consent selections, or other configuration details.

5. Analytics cookies

Analytics cookies help Fawna understand how the website and product are used. Information may include:

  • Pages visited and navigation paths.
  • Traffic sources and campaign attribution.
  • Browser, device, and operating system information.
  • Feature usage and interaction patterns.
  • Performance, error, and diagnostic data.

This information is used to improve website content, onboarding, usability, reliability, and product development.

6. Marketing cookies

Where enabled, marketing cookies may help measure campaign performance, understand which content contributed to interest in Fawna, and improve the relevance of communications.

Marketing cookies are not required to use the core service and should only be used where permitted by applicable law and consent settings.

7. Third-party technologies

Some cookies or similar technologies may be provided by vendors that support hosting, analytics, billing, customer communication, security, or embedded content.

These providers may process information under their own privacy notices and contractual commitments. The available providers may change as Fawna’s systems and product evolve.

8. Managing cookie choices

Cookie choices may be managed in several ways:

  1. Use the cookie banner or preference center, where available.
  2. Change browser settings to block, restrict, or delete cookies.
  3. Use device or platform privacy controls.
  4. Disable optional analytics or marketing technologies where a control is provided.
Blocking essential cookies may prevent parts of the website or product from working correctly.

9. Browser signals

Some browsers provide “Do Not Track” or similar privacy signals. Because industry standards for responding to these signals are not consistent, Fawna may not respond uniformly to every signal.

Where required by applicable law, Fawna will honor supported consent choices and legally recognized preference signals.

10. Cookie duration

The duration of a cookie depends on its purpose. Session cookies expire when the browser closes, while persistent cookies remain for a defined period or until deleted.

Cookie durations may change as providers, features, and technical requirements evolve.

11. Changes to this policy

This Cookie Policy may be updated to reflect changes in technology, service providers, product functionality, or legal requirements. The Last Updated date indicates when the policy was most recently revised.
