Cookies

Last Updated: November 12, 2023

Introduction

This document informs users about the technologies that help chatmint.io (the Website) and any services or applications connected thereto (together with the Website, the Products) provided by Chatmint (Private Limited) (the Company) to achieve the purposes described below. Such technologies allow the Company to access and store information (for example by using a “Cookie”) or use resources (for example by running a script) on a user’s device as they interact with the Products. For simplicity, all such technologies are defined as "Trackers" within this document – unless there is a reason to differentiate. For example, while Cookies can be used on both web and mobile browsers, it would be inaccurate to talk about Cookies in the context of mobile apps as they are a browser-based Tracker.

For this reason, within this document, the term Cookies is only used where it is specifically meant to indicate that particular type of Tracker. Some of the purposes for which Trackers are used may also require the user's consent, depending on the applicable law. Whenever consent is given, it can be freely withdrawn at any time following the instructions provided in this document. The Products use Trackers managed directly by the Company (so-called “first-party” Trackers) and Trackers that enable services provided by a third-party (so-called “third-party” Trackers). Unless otherwise specified within this document, third-party providers may access the Trackers managed by them. The validity and expiration periods of Cookies and other similar Trackers may vary depending on the lifetime set by the Company or the relevant provider.

Some of them expire upon termination of the user’s browsing session. In addition to what is specified in the descriptions within each of the categories below, users may find more precise and updated information regarding lifetime specification as well as any other relevant information – such as the presence of other Trackers - in the linked privacy policies of the respective third-party providers.

User Database Management

This type of service allows the Company to build user profiles by starting from an email address, a personal name, or other information that the user provides to the Products, as well as to track user activities through analytics features. This Personal Data may also be matched with publicly available information about the user (such as social networks' profiles) and used to build private profiles that the Company can display and use for improving the Products. Some of these services may also enable the sending of timed messages to the user, such as emails based on specific actions performed on the Products.

How To Manage Preferences And Provide Or Withdraw Consent

There are various ways to manage Tracker related preferences and to provide and withdraw consent, where relevant: users can manage preferences related to Trackers from directly within their own device settings, for example, by preventing the use or storage of Trackers. Additionally, whenever the use of Trackers is based on consent, users can provide or withdraw such consent by setting their preferences within the cookie notice or by updating such preferences accordingly via the relevant consent-preferences widget, if available. It is also possible, via relevant browser or device features, to delete previously stored Trackers, including those used to remember the user’s initial consent. Other Trackers in the browser’s local memory may be cleared by deleting the browsing history. With regard to any third-party Trackers, users can manage their preferences and withdraw their consent via the related opt-out link (where provided), by using the means indicated in the third party's privacy policy, or by contacting the third party.

Locating Tracker Settings

Users can, for example, find information about how to manage Cookies within the settings function of your relevant web browser, such as those provided by Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, Apple Safari, Microsoft Internet Explorer, Microsoft Edge, Brave, Opera etc. Users may also manage certain categories of Trackers used on mobile apps by opting out through relevant device settings such as the device advertising settings for mobile devices, or tracking settings in general (users may open the device settings and look for the relevant setting).

Advertising Industry Specific Opt-outs

Notwithstanding the above, users may follow the instructions provided by YourOnlineChoices (EU), the Network Advertising Initiative (US) and the Digital Advertising Alliance (US), DAAC (Canada), DDAI (Japan) or other similar services. Such initiatives allow users to select their tracking preferences for most of the advertising tools. The Company thus recommends that users make use of these resources in addition to the information provided in this document. The Digital Advertising Alliance offers an application called AppChoices that helps users to control interest-based advertising on mobile apps.
