Cookie Policy

1. What Are Cookies

Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you visit a website. They help us remember your preferences, keep you logged in, and understand how you use Sparki.

2. Cookies We Use

Essential Cookies

Required for the Service to function, including authentication, session management, and security. Without these cookies, Sparki may not operate properly. We use essential cookies by default to operate the Service. Where required by law, we will request your consent before placing non-essential cookies, such as analytics cookies, on your device.

Functional Cookies

Remember your preferences such as theme (dark/light mode), language, and display settings. These enhance your experience but are not strictly necessary.

Analytics Cookies

Help us understand how users interact with Sparki so we can improve performance and features. These cookies may collect information such as device type, browser, and usage patterns, but we do not use them to directly identify individual users. We may use aggregated or anonymised data derived from cookies to analyse trends and improve the Service.

3. Third-Party Cookies

Limited third-party cookies may be set by our service providers (such as authentication and hosting providers) solely to support the operation and security of the Service.

4. Managing Cookies

You can manage cookie preferences through your browser settings. Note that disabling essential cookies may prevent you from using Sparki. Most browsers allow you to:

• View and delete existing cookies
• Block cookies from specific or all sites
• Set preferences for certain types of cookies

5. Cookie Retention

Session cookies are deleted when you close your browser. Persistent cookies (such as authentication tokens) may last up to 30 days. Analytics cookies expire after 12 months.

6. Change your preferences

You can review or change your cookie choice at any time. Your choice is stored on your device and expires after six months, after which we will ask again.

7. Updates

We may update this Cookie Policy as our use of cookies evolves. Changes will be reflected on this page with an updated date.
