This Cookie Policy explains how Ledgers Technology, Inc. ("Ledgers," "we," "us," or "our") uses cookies and similar tracking technologies when you visit our website and use our platform. This policy should be read in conjunction with our Privacy Policy.
1. What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files that are placed on your device when you visit a website. Cookies are widely used to make websites work more efficiently, to provide a better user experience, and to provide reporting information.
Cookies set by the website owner are called "first-party cookies." Cookies set by parties other than the website owner are called "third-party cookies." Third-party cookies enable features or functionality to be provided on or through the website, such as analytics and interactive content.
In addition to cookies, we may use other similar technologies such as web beacons, local storage, and similar technologies that store information on your device.
2. Why We Use Cookies
We use cookies and similar technologies for several important reasons. Some cookies are essential for the operation of our platform — without them, you would not be able to log in, navigate our site, or use key features. We also use cookies to remember your preferences, to understand how our platform is used, and to keep our platform secure by detecting and preventing fraudulent activity.
We are committed to transparency about the cookies we use. We do not use cookies to collect sensitive personal information such as your financial account credentials, and we do not sell information collected through cookies to third parties.
3. Types of Cookies We Use
3.1 Essential Cookies
Essential cookies are required for the basic functionality of our platform. Without these cookies, the services you have requested cannot be provided. Because these cookies are strictly necessary, they cannot be disabled.
Essential cookies we use include:
- Session cookies: These maintain your authenticated session after you log in. They are deleted when you close your browser or log out.
- Security cookies: These help protect your account from unauthorized access and detect potentially fraudulent activity.
- Load balancing cookies: These distribute traffic across our servers to ensure optimal performance.
- User preference cookies: These remember essential settings that affect how the platform functions.
Lifetime: Essential cookies are typically session cookies, though some security cookies may persist for up to 24 hours.
3.2 Analytics Cookies
Analytics cookies help us understand how visitors interact with our platform by collecting and reporting information anonymously. This information helps us improve our platform by identifying which features are most used and where users encounter difficulties.
We use the following analytics services:
- Vercel Analytics: A privacy-focused web analytics service that collects aggregated, anonymized data. Vercel Analytics does not use cookies and does not collect personal information.
- Internal analytics: We may use our own first-party analytics tools to understand platform usage patterns using anonymized data.
Lifetime: Analytics cookies typically persist for 30 days to 24 months.
3.3 Functional Cookies
Functional cookies enable enhanced functionality and personalization that improves your experience. These cookies allow the platform to remember choices you make and provide enhanced, personalized features.
Functional cookies we use may include:
- Preference cookies: These remember your display preferences, such as your preferred dashboard layout, chart types, and date range selections.
- Feature cookies: These track which features you have enabled or disabled.
- Communication cookies: These remember whether you have dismissed certain notifications or prompts.
Lifetime: Functional cookies typically last for 6 to 12 months.
3.4 Marketing Cookies
We do not currently use marketing or advertising cookies on our platform. We do not display third-party advertisements and we do not use cookies to track you across other websites for advertising purposes.
If we decide to use marketing cookies in the future, we will update this Cookie Policy and provide you with appropriate notice and consent mechanisms before deploying such cookies.
4. Third-Party Cookies
Some cookies on our platform are placed by third-party service providers we engage to help operate our platform. These third parties may set cookies on your device when you visit our platform. Our third-party service providers are contractually obligated to use cookies only for the purposes we specify and in accordance with applicable data protection laws.
We do not allow third parties to use cookies on our platform for their own advertising purposes.
5. Cookie Lifetimes
Cookies have different lifetimes depending on their purpose:
- Session cookies: Temporary cookies deleted from your device when you close your web browser.
- Persistent cookies: Cookies that remain on your device for a specified period or until you delete them manually.
Essential security cookies typically last for the duration of your session or up to 24 hours. Analytics cookies may persist for 30 days to 24 months. Functional preference cookies typically last for 6 to 12 months.
6. Managing Cookie Preferences
You have choices regarding the cookies we use. Except for essential cookies that are strictly necessary for the operation of our platform, you can control and manage cookies in several ways.
6.1 Platform Cookie Settings
Where available, you can adjust your cookie preferences through your account settings. Please note that if you disable certain cookies, some features of the platform may not function as intended.
6.2 Browser Cookie Settings
Most web browsers allow you to control cookies through their settings. You can typically find these settings in the "Options" or "Preferences" menu of your browser. Please note that if you choose to block all cookies, you may not be able to access all parts of our platform.
6.3 Browser Extensions and Tools
Various browser extensions and privacy tools can give you additional control over cookies and tracking technologies. We do not endorse any particular third-party tool, and you should review their privacy practices before use.
7. Do Not Track Signals
Some web browsers include a "Do Not Track" feature that sends a signal indicating you do not want your online activities tracked. Because there is no universally accepted standard for how to respond to these signals, we do not currently respond to DNT browser signals.
However, we are committed to providing you with meaningful choices about information collected on our platform through the methods described in Section 6 above. We do not track users across third-party websites and do not use cookies for targeted advertising, regardless of DNT settings.
8. Cookies and Mobile Devices
If you access our platform through a mobile device, we may use technologies similar to cookies designed for mobile environments. You can manage mobile tracking through your device settings, which provide options to limit ad tracking and reset advertising identifiers.
9. Regional Considerations
9.1 European Economic Area and United Kingdom
If you are located in the EEA or UK, we comply with the requirements of the ePrivacy Directive and GDPR. We obtain your consent before placing non-essential cookies on your device and provide clear information about the cookies we use. You have the right to withdraw your consent at any time.
9.2 California
If you are a California resident, you have rights under the CCPA and CPRA regarding the collection of personal information through cookies. We do not sell personal information collected through cookies and do not use cookies for targeted advertising based on the sale or sharing of personal information.
10. Updates to This Cookie Policy
We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time. When we make changes, we will update the "Last updated" date. If we make material changes to how we use cookies, we will notify you through a prominent notice on our platform or by other appropriate means before the changes take effect.
