What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files that are stored on your device (computer, tablet, or mobile) when you visit a website or use a web application. They are widely used to make websites work efficiently, to provide a better user experience, and to give website operators useful information.

Qwiva uses cookies and similar technologies (such as local storage and session storage) on our website and platform. This policy explains what cookies we use, why we use them, and how you can manage your preferences.

Types of Cookies We Use

We categorise the cookies we use into three groups:

1. Strictly Necessary Cookies

These cookies are essential for the platform to function and cannot be switched off. They are typically set in response to actions you take, such as logging in or filling in forms. You can set your browser to block these cookies, but some parts of the Service will not work as a result.

2. Analytics & Performance Cookies

These cookies help us understand how users interact with the Service — which pages are most visited, where errors occur, and how we can improve performance. All data is aggregated and anonymised.

3. Marketing & Targeting Cookies

These cookies are set through our site by our advertising partners to build a profile of your interests and show you relevant adverts on other sites. They do not store directly personal information, but are based on a unique identifier for your browser and device.

How to Manage Cookies

You have several options for managing your cookie preferences:

  • Browser settings: Most web browsers allow you to manage cookies through their settings. You can set your browser to refuse cookies, delete cookies, or alert you when cookies are being sent. Note that disabling cookies may affect the functionality of the Service.
  • Opt-out tools: You can opt out of Google Analytics by installing the Google Analytics opt-out browser add-on.
  • Our cookie banner: When you first visit our website, you will be presented with a cookie consent banner. You can update your preferences at any time by clicking "Cookie Settings" in the footer.

Browser-Specific Instructions

  • Chrome: Settings → Privacy and Security → Cookies and other site data
  • Firefox: Options → Privacy & Security → Cookies and Site Data

Changes to This Policy

We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time to reflect changes in technology, legislation, or our data practices. When we do, we will update the "Last updated" date at the top of this page. We encourage you to check back periodically.
