Cookie Policy

Effective Date: 28.01.2026

1. Introduction

This Cookie Policy (“Policy”) explains how Ownery.com (“we”, “us”, or “our”) uses cookies and similar tracking technologies on our website and associated services (collectively, the “Platform”). It forms part of our overall approach to privacy and should be read in conjunction with our Privacy Policy.

Cookies and related technologies play an essential role in enabling the Platform to function properly, improving performance, providing useful features, securing your experience, and helping us understand how users interact with the Platform.

This Policy applies to all visitors and users of the Platform, regardless of their location or the type of device used to access the Platform.

By continuing to use the Platform, you agree that we may store and access cookies and similar technologies on your device in accordance with this Policy, unless you disable them through your browser or device settings. If you do not agree with the use of cookies in this way, you should adjust your settings accordingly or refrain from using the Platform.

In addition to cookies, we may use other tracking technologies such as local storage, web beacons (also called pixel tags), and tracking scripts, which function in a similar manner and are subject to the same principles described in this Policy.

2. What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files that are placed on your device (such as a computer, smartphone, or tablet) when you visit a website. They are widely used to help websites function, to improve user experience, and to provide information to website operators about how their sites are being used.

Cookies are stored by your browser and allow a website to recognize your device over time. Some cookies are set directly by the website you are visiting (known as “first-party cookies”), while others may be set by third parties providing services or content on that site (known as “third-party cookies”).

Cookies serve a wide range of purposes. For example, they can:

• remember your login credentials so you don’t have to re-enter them every time;

• keep track of your preferences, such as language or region settings;

• enable shopping cart functionality or session continuity;

• measure how you interact with a site’s content;

• help identify and fix errors or performance issues.

Types of Cookies by Duration

• Session Cookies: These are temporary cookies that expire and are automatically deleted when you close your browser. They are typically used to maintain your session while you navigate through the Platform.

• Persistent Cookies: These remain on your device for a specified period or until manually deleted. They are used to remember your preferences and choices across multiple sessions.

Cookies vs. Similar Technologies

In addition to cookies, we may also use technologies that perform similar functions, including:

• Local Storage: This allows data to be stored locally in your browser for use across sessions. Unlike cookies, local storage data is not automatically sent to the server with every request.

• Web Beacons / Pixel Tags: These are small transparent images or snippets of code embedded in a webpage or email that track user activity, such as when a page is viewed or an email is opened.

• Scripts and SDKs: Small pieces of code that allow us or our partners to deliver additional features or collect analytical data.

These technologies function in similar ways to cookies and, unless stated otherwise, are included within the scope of this Cookie Policy.

3. Types of Cookies We Use

We use cookies and similar technologies for a variety of purposes related to the functioning, performance, and improvement of the Platform. These technologies help us understand how users interact with our services, personalize their experience, and maintain the security and integrity of the Platform.

Below are the main categories of cookies we use:

a) Strictly Necessary Cookies

These cookies are essential for the Platform to function properly and securely. They enable core features such as:

• user login and authentication;

• account session management;

• secure navigation and data transmission;

• fraud prevention and system integrity.

Without these cookies, some parts of the Platform may not work at all, or may become unstable or inaccessible.

Example purposes:

• Keeping you logged in as you navigate between pages

• Enabling secure access to restricted areas

• Preventing repeated login prompts

These cookies cannot be disabled through our cookie management tools, although you may block them through your browser settings (note: this may impair functionality).

b) Functional (Preference) Cookies

Functional cookies allow the Platform to remember your choices and preferences to enhance your user experience. These cookies are not essential but enable more personalized and convenient interactions.

Example purposes:

• Saving language or region preferences

• Remembering form inputs or previous actions

• Customizing interface layout for your device or browser

If you disable these cookies, your experience may be less tailored or require repeated inputs.

c) Analytics and Performance Cookies

We use analytics cookies to collect information about how users interact with the Platform. These cookies help us measure usage patterns, identify performance issues, and improve the structure and content of the Platform.

Example purposes:

• Counting unique visitors and sessions

• Understanding which pages are most popular

• Measuring how users navigate through the Platform

• Identifying technical errors or slow-loading elements

We may use trusted third-party analytics tools (such as Google Analytics) to help us process this data. All analytics are collected in aggregated or pseudonymized form.

d) Security and Abuse Prevention Cookies

These cookies help us detect and prevent malicious activity or violations of our Terms of Service.

Example purposes:

• Identifying repeated failed login attempts

• Detecting unusual traffic patterns

• Protecting against spam and automated bots

These cookies are critical to the secure operation of the Platform.

e) Third-Party Cookies

Some third-party services integrated into the Platform (such as embedded maps, media, or login integrations) may set their own cookies. These cookies are governed by the respective third party’s cookie or privacy policy.

We do not control third-party cookies and recommend that you review the cookie policies of those providers where applicable.
