Introduction

This Cookie Policy applies to all users of this website. The following information is intended to inform users of this website about the placement, use, and management of cookies in the context of browsing this website.

We use the term "cookies" to refer to cookies and/or similar technologies through which information can be collected automatically.

Cookies are used to provide users of this website with a better browsing experience and services tailored to the needs and interests of individual users, namely for:

- Improving the usability of this website, including by identifying any errors that occur while users are visiting/using it.

- Providing anonymous statistics on how this website is used to Tropistream Corporation, N. V and its affiliates. ("Seks, " "we, " "us, " "our" ) as the owner of this website.

- Anticipating possible future services/goods that may be provided/made available to users through this website, depending on the services/products being accessed.

Cookies provide Seks with valuable feedback on how this website is used, allowing us to take measures to improve its efficiency and accessibility for users. Sometimes, the use of cookies also allows the storage of specific settings and preferences set by users of this website, such as the language in which a web page is viewed.

1. What Are Cookies?

An "Internet Cookie" (also known as a "browser cookie, " or "HTTP cookie, " or "cookie") is a small file of letters and numbers that will be stored on a user's computer, mobile device, or other equipment through which the internet or a specific webpage is accessed.

Cookies are installed by request from a web server to a browser (e.g., Internet Explorer, Firefox, Chrome, Safari). Once installed, cookies have a fixed lifetime and remain "passive" in the sense that they do not contain software, viruses, or spyware and will not access information on the user's hard drive on whose equipment they are installed. Most cookie consists of two parts: (i) the name and (ii) the content or value of the cookie. Technically, 2 only the webserver that sent the cookie can re-access it when a user returns to the web page associated with that webserver.

Cookies may be either "persistent" cookies or "session" cookies: a persistent cookie will be stored by a web browser and will remain valid until its set expiry date unless deleted by the user before the expiry date; a session cookie, on the other hand, will expire at the end of the user session, when the web browser is closed. The duration a cookie is stored depends on its intended use. For example, a cookie designed to remember your language preference might last several weeks, while one that supports temporary navigation may expire within minutes or hours.

Seks uses both "mandatory" and "non-mandatory" cookies. Mandatory cookies are strictly necessary to provide Seks services you want to access and non-mandatory cookies are cookies that are not absolutely necessary for Seks to provide you the services required, such as cookies used to analyze your behavior on a website ('analytical' cookies) or cookies used to display advertisements to you ('advertising' cookies). Non-mandatory cookies, which involve processing of your personal data, are only placed on your computer or device if you have consented to us doing so. Non-mandatory cookies include, for example, those used by Google Analytics to analyze the use of our website.

2. What Is the Lifespan of a Cookie?

Cookies are managed by web servers. The lifetime of a cookie can vary significantly, depending on the purpose for which it is placed. Some cookies are only used for a single session (i.e., session cookies) and are no longer retained once the user leaves the website. Some cookies are retained and reused each time the user returns to that web page (i.e., persistent cookies). However, cookies can be deleted by the user at any time via their browser settings.

3. What Are Own Cookies vs Cookies Placed by Third Parties?

Cookies can generally be installed by the controller of the accessed website, referred to as "own cookies, " or by other websites, referred to as "third-party cookies." This Cookie Policy does not cover the use of cookies by such third parties, and for more information regardingthose cookies, please check the cookie and privacy policies of the third parties. Third-party cookie providers must also comply with this website's data protection rules and privacy policy. For example, such cookies may come from the following third parties: Google, Amplitude, X or others.

4. Use of Local Storage and Session Storage

In addition to cookies, our website also uses browser-based technologies such as Local Storage and Session Storage to store certain information directly on your device. These are web storage technologies supported by modern browsers that allow websites to retain data on a user's device. Usually, they are different from cookies in how they function, how long the data persists, and, in some cases, the kind of data they store.

Local Storage allows websites to store persistent data as key-value pairs directly in your browser. Unlike cookies, data stored in Local Storage is not automatically sent to the server with each request and does not expire when the session ends. It remains on your device until manually deleted. We may use Local Storage for purposes such as storing your selected language, interface preferences, or cached data to support specific features.

Session Storage works similarly but retains information only for the duration of your current browser session. Once you close the tab or browser, the data is cleared automatically. It is typically used to store temporary data needed during your visit.

Why do we use these technologies?

We use Local Storage and Session Storage to support essential website functionalities, including for example, (i) remembering your user preferences and interface customizations (e.g., language selection) or (ii) enhancing site user experience by reducing server load and enabling faster content delivery.

In accordance with PECR, any storage of or access to information on your device (outside of strictly necessary purposes) is only carried out with your informed consent. Where these technologies are used for non-essential purposes, such as analytics or marketing/personalization, your consent is required and is managed via our cookie banner and settings interface. We do not store personally identifiable information in Local or Session Storage unless it is strictly necessary for a requested service or you have given explicit consent.

You have full control over the data stored through Local Storage and Session Storage. You can clear this data at any time through your browser settings. Please be aware that doing so may impact your experience on our site—for example, resetting your preferences or requiring you to re-enter certain information.
