Use of Cookies

Last Updated: May 08, 2024.

This document informs users about the technologies used to achieve the purposes described below on https://cryptocity.network. These technologies allow the owner to access and store information (e.g., by using cookies) or utilize resources (e.g., by executing a script) on a user's device while interacting with https://cryptocity.network.

For simplicity, all these technologies are defined in this document as "trackers," unless there is a reason to distinguish them.

For example, cookies can be used in both web and mobile browsers. However, referring to cookies in the context of mobile apps would be inaccurate, as they are a browser-based tracker. Therefore, the term "cookies" in this document is only used to refer specifically to that tracker type. Some purposes for which trackers are used may require the user's consent. Once given, consent can be withdrawn freely at any time, as indicated in this document.

https://cryptocity.network uses trackers managed directly by the owner (so-called "first-party" trackers) and trackers that enable services from third parties ("third-party" trackers). Unless stated otherwise, third parties can access the trackers they manage.

The validity and expiration periods of cookies and similar trackers vary based on the lifetime set by the owner or the provider. Some of them expire when the user's browser session ends.

In addition to the information provided within each of the categories listed below, users may find more precise and updated information about the lifetime and other relevant details, such as the presence of other trackers, in the linked privacy policies of the respective third-party providers or by contacting the owner.

Other trackers in the browser's local storage can be deleted by clearing the browsing history.
