Cookie Policy

MarketVog uses cookies and related technologies to support Platform functionality, maintain security, improve user experience, and understand how users interact with our systems. This Policy provides clear transparency regarding:

• What cookies are and how they work
• Why MarketVog uses cookies and similar technologies
• What specific categories of cookies are used on the Platform
• How users can manage, limit, or control cookie usage

This Policy applies to all website visits, Platform sessions, software interactions, account access, and related digital service usage. It should be read alongside the Privacy Policy and Terms of Service, which govern overall Platform use and data practices.

Cookies are small text files that are placed on your device (computer, smartphone, tablet, or other device) when you visit a website or use a digital platform. Cookies are widely used to make websites function correctly, improve performance, and provide information to platform operators.

Cookies may store or recognize information such as session status, browser settings, user preferences, authentication details, usage patterns, and technical configuration. They enable platforms to provide consistent and personalized experiences across sessions and devices.

There are different types of cookies based on their source and duration:

• First-party cookies are set directly by MarketVog and are used to operate Platform functions
• Third-party cookies are set by external service providers integrated with the Platform
• Session cookies exist only for the duration of your browser session and are deleted when you close your browser
• Persistent cookies remain on your device for a set period or until manually deleted

MarketVog may also use related tracking technologies such as web beacons, pixel tags, local storage, session storage, and similar mechanisms. For simplicity, this Policy refers to all these technologies collectively as "cookies."

MarketVog uses cookies to support legitimate Platform operations, deliver reliable user experiences, and continuously improve our services. Cookies serve several important functions:

Platform Functionality. Certain cookies are essential to Platform operation. Without them, core features such as account login, session management, and secure navigation cannot function correctly.

Security. Cookies help us authenticate users, protect accounts from unauthorized access, detect suspicious or fraudulent activity, and maintain Platform integrity.

Performance and Improvement. Analytics cookies help us understand how users interact with the Platform, which features are used most, where technical problems occur, and how to improve usability and performance for all users.

User Experience. Preference cookies allow the Platform to remember your settings, interface choices, and customizations so you do not have to reconfigure them each visit.

MarketVog uses four primary categories of cookies and related technologies. Not every cookie will be active at all times, and cookie usage may evolve as the Platform develops. The categories are:

Third-party cookies placed by integrated service providers may also be present. These are addressed in Section 9.

Essential cookies are strictly necessary for the Platform to function. Without these cookies, core services cannot be delivered and certain parts of the Platform will not operate correctly. These cookies do not exist for advertising purposes.

Essential cookies may support the following functions:

• Maintaining authenticated user sessions after login
• Storing session tokens required for secure account access
• Supporting navigation between pages within the Platform
• Facilitating secure payment and billing workflows
• Remembering form data during active sessions to prevent data loss
• Enforcing security policies and preventing session hijacking

Because essential cookies are technically necessary for Platform operation, they are placed automatically when you use the Platform and generally cannot be disabled through Platform settings without affecting functionality.

MarketVog may use analytics and performance cookies to understand how users interact with the Platform. These cookies help us identify what is working well, where users encounter difficulties, and how to improve the overall Platform experience.

Analytics cookies may collect information such as:

• Pages visited and navigation sequences within the Platform
• Time spent on pages and overall session duration
• Features accessed and workflow completion patterns
• Error occurrences and technical failure points
• Device type, browser, and technical environment details
• Referral sources and entry points into the Platform

Analytics information may be processed through third-party analytics platforms and may be aggregated or anonymized where appropriate. MarketVog uses analytics data solely to improve Platform quality, prioritize development, and optimize system performance. Analytics cookies do not identify individual users by name for marketing targeting purposes.

Functionality and preference cookies allow the Platform to remember choices and settings you have made, providing a more personalized and streamlined experience. These cookies are not strictly necessary, but they improve convenience and usability.

Functionality cookies may support:

• Remembering language and region settings
• Storing interface theme preferences and display configurations
• Retaining dashboard layouts and customized workspace settings
• Remembering accessibility preferences for improved usability
• Persisting notification preferences and communication settings

Disabling functionality cookies may affect your experience, requiring you to re-enter preferences each session. These cookies do not track activity across unrelated websites or serve advertising functions.

MarketVog uses security-related cookies and authentication technologies as critical components of Platform protection. These technologies protect user accounts, prevent unauthorized access, and maintain the integrity and safety of the Platform.

Security and authentication cookies may support:

• Validating user identity during and after login processes
• Detecting and blocking suspicious login attempts and credential abuse
• Protecting against cross-site scripting (XSS) and request forgery attacks
• Rate limiting and abuse monitoring to prevent automated attacks
• Maintaining secure session continuity across multiple pages and interactions

Security cookies play an essential role in protecting both users and Platform infrastructure. Disabling security-related cookies may significantly affect your ability to access and use your account safely.

MarketVog may work with trusted third-party providers that supply analytics, hosting, payment processing, infrastructure services, security monitoring, and communication platforms. These providers may place cookies or use related tracking technologies on the Platform in connection with the services they provide.

Examples of third-party categories whose technologies may be present include:

• Analytics and measurement platforms for performance tracking
• Payment processors for secure transaction handling and fraud prevention
• Cloud infrastructure and CDN providers supporting Platform delivery
• Security and authentication service providers
• Communication and customer support platforms

MarketVog does not permit third-party advertising networks to place behavioral advertising cookies on the Platform for the purpose of tracking users across unrelated websites for targeted advertising.

Users may have choices regarding non-essential cookie usage depending on applicable law and browser settings. Where cookie consent mechanisms are available on the Platform, users may accept or decline certain categories of non-essential cookies.

Please note important limitations when managing cookies:

• Essential cookies cannot be disabled without severely impairing or preventing Platform use, including account login and session management
• Security cookies are required to protect your account and cannot be safely disabled
• Disabling analytics or functionality cookies may reduce Platform personalization and our ability to identify and fix technical issues
• Cookie preferences may need to be re-set if you clear your browser's cookie storage

MarketVog provides reasonable transparency and user control over non-essential cookies where technically feasible and legally required.

Most web browsers provide built-in controls allowing you to manage, restrict, block, or delete cookies. You can typically access these settings through your browser's privacy or settings menu. Common options include:

• Blocking all cookies or only third-party cookies
• Deleting all cookies when you close the browser
• Reviewing and deleting cookies set by specific websites
• Enabling or disabling cookies on a site-by-site basis
• Using private or incognito browsing modes that limit cookie persistence

Browser controls vary by provider. Users should consult their browser's help documentation for specific instructions. Be aware that blocking all cookies will prevent you from logging in to MarketVog, and will significantly limit or entirely prevent access to Platform features. MarketVog is not responsible for reduced functionality resulting from your browser cookie settings.

Popular browser guides for cookie management are available from Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, Apple Safari, and Microsoft Edge documentation resources.

Some browsers and devices allow users to activate a "Do Not Track" (DNT) signal that indicates a preference not to be tracked across websites. Currently, there is no universally accepted technical standard for how platforms should respond to DNT signals.

MarketVog currently does not alter its data collection practices in response to Do Not Track browser signals, as there is no consistent industry standard defining what constitutes appropriate response to such signals. MarketVog continues to monitor developments in this area and may update its practices if and when a clear and enforceable standard emerges.

Users who wish to limit data collection may use the browser controls and preference management options described in Sections 10 and 11 of this Policy.

MarketVog may update this Cookie Policy periodically to reflect Platform development, legal requirements, changes in privacy practices, infrastructure evolution, or the addition of new technologies or service providers. Updated policies become effective upon publication unless otherwise stated.

Users are encouraged to review this Cookie Policy periodically. Where required by law, MarketVog will provide notice of material changes. Your continued use of the Platform following the publication of an updated Cookie Policy constitutes acknowledgment of the revised cookie practices.

Questions, concerns, or cookie-related inquiries may be directed to MarketVog through our official communication channels.
