Cookie Policy
Last updated: March 11, 2024
This Cookie Policy explains how Cygexii ("we", "us", or "our") uses cookies and similar tracking technologies when you visit our website at cygexii.com. It describes what these technologies are, why we use them, and your rights to control their use.
By continuing to use our website, you consent to our use of cookies as described in this policy. If you do not agree, you may adjust your browser settings or refrain from using the site.
1. What Are Cookies
Cookies are small text files that are placed on your device — computer, tablet, or mobile phone — when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites work efficiently, to improve user experience, and to provide information to the website owners.
Cookies are not programs and cannot carry viruses or malware. They cannot access other information stored on your device. Each cookie is unique to your web browser and contains anonymous information.
In addition to cookies, we may use similar technologies such as:
- Web beacons — small transparent images embedded in web pages or emails that help us understand how you interact with our content.
- Pixel tags — similar to web beacons, used to track user behaviour and measure the effectiveness of our communications.
- Local storage — a browser feature that allows websites to store data locally on your device for improved performance.
- Session storage — temporary storage that is cleared when your browser session ends.
2. Types of Cookies We Use
We use the following categories of cookies on our website:
2.1 Strictly Necessary Cookies
These cookies are essential for the website to function properly. They enable core features such as page navigation, access to secure areas, and basic functionality. Without these cookies, the website cannot operate as intended.
These cookies do not collect any information about you that could be used for marketing purposes and are not used to remember where you have been on the internet.
2.2 Performance and Analytics Cookies
These cookies collect information about how visitors use our website — for example, which pages are visited most often, how long visitors spend on each page, and whether visitors receive error messages. All information collected by these cookies is aggregated and therefore anonymous.
We use this data solely to improve how our website works and to understand user behaviour patterns.
2.3 Functional Cookies
These cookies allow the website to remember choices you make — such as your preferred language, region, or login status — and provide enhanced, more personalised features. The information collected by these cookies may be anonymised and cannot track your browsing activity on other websites.
2.4 Targeting and Advertising Cookies
These cookies are used to deliver content and advertisements that are more relevant to you and your interests. They may also be used to limit the number of times you see an advertisement and to measure the effectiveness of advertising campaigns. They are usually placed by advertising networks with our permission.
These cookies remember that you have visited a website, and this information may be shared with other organisations, such as advertisers. This does not mean we will always know who you are — this information is typically anonymous unless you have provided personal details.
2.5 Third-Party Cookies
Some cookies are placed by third-party services that appear on our pages. We do not control these cookies and they are subject to the respective third party's own privacy and cookie policies. Third-party cookies may include those from analytics providers, social media platforms, and embedded content services.

5.3 Withdrawing Consent

To withdraw consent, you may update your preferences through the cookie settings available on our website or by adjusting your browser settings as described above.
6. Cookies and Personal Data
Some cookies we use may collect information that, alone or in combination with other data, could identify you as an individual. Where cookies process personal data, this is done in accordance with our Privacy Policy, which governs how we collect, use, and protect personal information.
We encourage you to read our Privacy Policy alongside this Cookie Policy for a complete understanding of how your data is handled.
7. Data Retention
Cookies are retained for the duration specified in the cookie details table above. Session cookies are automatically deleted when you close your browser. Persistent cookies remain on your device until they expire or until you delete them manually through your browser settings.
Even after a cookie expires, we may retain aggregated or anonymised data derived from cookie information for analytical and reporting purposes, provided such data cannot be used to identify you individually.
8. Updates to This Policy
We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time to reflect changes in the cookies we use, changes in applicable law, or changes in our practices. Any updates will be posted on this page with a revised "Last updated" date at the top.
