Cookie Policy

Last Updated: August 1, 2025

This Cookie Policy explains how Adesic, LLC. (“Adesic”, “we”, “us”, or “our”) uses cookies and similar technologies on our website, in our mobile apps, and through online services that link to this policy (collectively, the “Services”). It describes what these technologies are, why we use them, and how you can control their use. You can control cookies at any time in your browser settings.

For more details about how we process personal information collected via cookies, please review our Privacy Policy. If you have questions, please contact us at support@adesic.com.

1. What Are Cookies

Cookies are small text files placed on your device to store information. Websites and apps use cookies and similar technologies (such as web beacons, pixels, tags, and local storage) to remember you, enhance your experience, and understand how you interact with our Services.

Cookies set by us are “first-party cookies.” Cookies set by third parties (such as analytics or advertising providers) are “third-party cookies.” Third-party cookies are subject to the privacy policies of those providers.

2. Why Do We Use Cookies

We use cookies for the following purposes:

• Strictly Necessary Cookies: Enable core functions such as security, authentication, network management, and accessibility. These are required for the Services to work and cannot be switched off.
• Functional Cookies: Remember your choices (such as language or region) and help tailor the Services to your preferences.
• Performance/Analytical Cookies: Collect information about how you use the Services, helping us improve performance and user experience (e.g., counting visits, identifying popular pages).
• Targeting/Advertising Cookies: Track browsing habits to deliver relevant advertisements and measure the effectiveness of our marketing campaigns. These may be set by us or third-party advertising partners.

In addition to the purposes listed above, cookies and similar technologies may be used to:

• Help manage user signup processes, logins, and account administration.
• Remember your preferences and settings (including notifications, subscriptions, and payment orders).
• Provide and monitor the effectiveness of our Services, including usage patterns and online activity.
• Track and understand your interactions across our website, apps, email communications, and, where permitted, across unaffiliated third-party sites for analytics, marketing, and fraud prevention purposes.

3. Cookies and Personal Information

In some cases, cookies collect information that can be combined with other information to identify you as an individual. Our use of cookies that process personal data is governed by our Privacy Policy. We may combine information collected through cookies with information you provide elsewhere for the purposes described in our Privacy Policy. We may use cookies and tracking technologies in our emails to understand if and when you have opened an email from us, how you interacted with it, and to measure the effectiveness of our marketing campaigns.

4. How Long Do Cookies Last

The duration for which a cookie remains on your device depends on its type:

• Session Cookies: These cookies are temporary and expire once you close your browser or app.
• Persistent Cookies: These cookies remain on your device for a set period or until you delete them. They are activated each time you visit the website that created them.

5. Your Choices: How to Manage Cookies

You can control cookies in the following ways:

• Browser Controls: Most browsers let you manage, refuse, or delete cookies through their settings. See your browser’s help menu for instructions.
• Third-Party Tools: You may opt out of targeted advertising through:
  • Digital Advertising Alliance (DAA)
  • Network Advertising Initiative (NAI)
  • Your Online Choices (EU/UK/EEA)

Important: Please note that disabling cookies may affect the functionality of our Services. Depending on your device and operating system, you may need to update your cookie and privacy preferences in each browser or device you use. Some settings (such as disabling images in emails) may also affect whether we receive email interaction data. Opting out of targeted advertising does not mean you will stop seeing ads; it means ads may be less relevant to your interests. We are not responsible for the effectiveness of third-party opt-out tools.

6. Third Parties & Analytics

We use third-party analytics and advertising partners to help us understand usage and improve our Services. These partners may set cookies or other tracking technologies on your device.

For more information on how Google Analytics collects and processes data, see How Google uses data when you use our partners’ sites or apps. To opt out of Google Analytics, visit Google Analytics Opt-out.

Other partners:

• Google Tag Manager: https://policies.google.com/privacy
• Microsoft Clarity: https://privacy.microsoft.com/en-US/privacystatement
• SumSub: https://sumsub.com/privacy-notice/

We may use cookies and similar technologies to collect device and usage information, including device type, operating system, unique device identifiers (such as mobile advertising IDs), and location data. This information may help us with analytics, fraud prevention, and providing location-based services.

7. International Users

Our Services are intended for U.S. users. If you access our Services from outside the U.S., including the EU/UK/EEA, cookies will be set by default. We are planning to implement a cookie preferences tool as our services grow and will update this policy when that occurs. By using our Services, you consent to the processing and transfer of your information to the United States.

8. Updates to This Policy

We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time, for example, to reflect changes to the cookies we use or for legal/regulatory reasons. The effective date at the top of this policy indicates when it was last updated.
