1. What cookies and similar technologies are
Cookies are small files stored by a website on your browser or device. Similar technologies can include local storage, pixels, tags, SDKs, and device identifiers. They may help a service remember a session, store your settings, measure performance, protect accounts, or support advertising.
This Cookie Policy applies to StartupMeu websites and platform features operated by Wardiere Technologies. It should be read with the Privacy Policy.
2. Cookie categories
| CATEGORY | WHY IT MAY BE USED | CHOICE |
|---|---|---|
| Strictly necessary | Sign-in sessions, account security, load balancing, fraud prevention, privacy choices, and core service functions you request. | These may be used without consent where the law permits because they are needed to provide the requested service. |
| Preferences | Remember language, region, display settings, or other choices. | Consent or another valid local basis may be required. |
| Analytics and performance | Understand page visits, navigation, errors, and service performance so we can improve the marketplace. | Optional; we plan to ask permission where required and provide a way to change the choice. |
| Advertising or cross-site tracking | Measure campaigns or personalize advertising across services. | Not required for the planned V1 marketplace. If introduced, this policy and consent controls will be updated first. |
The actual cookie names, providers, purpose, expiration, and storage location will be listed here or in the cookie preference tool before optional technologies are enabled.
3. How to manage your choices
Where required, a cookie banner or settings panel will let you accept, reject, or customize non-essential cookies. Optional cookies should remain off until you consent. You can change or withdraw a consent choice later through the cookie settings link shown on the website.
Strictly necessary cookies may still operate when you reject optional categories. If you disable essential cookies in your browser, sign-in, security, billing, or other core features may not work as intended.
Current implementation status: the present informational website does not yet include a cookie preference interface or optional analytics integration. Those controls must be implemented before any non-essential cookies or similar tracking technologies are added.
4. Third-party services
Some pages currently load typefaces from Google Fonts. A browser request to an external font host can share technical connection information, such as an IP address and browser request data, with that provider. This is a third-party resource, not a cookie category by itself. StartupMeu should confirm the provider’s current practices and consider self-hosting fonts before launch.
The planned platform may use hosting, payment, email, security, or analytics providers. These providers may use cookies or similar technologies for the functions they perform. Their use must be documented in the final cookie inventory and disclosed in the privacy and cookie notices as required by law.
5. Browser controls
Most browsers let you view, delete, or block cookies, and some provide controls for site data or tracking protection. Browser controls are separate from a consent choice on our site and may not remove all similar technologies or affect data already collected. See your browser’s help pages for the controls available to you.
6. Changes to this policy
We may update this policy when technologies, providers, or legal requirements change. We will revise the effective date and provide additional notice or request consent where required.
