Cookie Policy
What cookies we use, why we use them, and exactly how to turn off anything you'd rather we not track.
What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. They let a site remember information about your visit — like your preferences and whether you're signed in — which makes your next visit easier and the site more useful.
This policy explains how Webnex uses cookies and similar technologies (like local storage and tracking pixels) on our website, and how you can control them.
Types of Cookies We Use
| Category | Purpose | Examples | Retention |
|---|---|---|---|
| Essential Always active | Keep the site secure and functional — session handling, load balancing, form submission, and remembering that you're signed in. | Session ID, CSRF tokens, sign-in state | Session or up to 30 days |
| Analytics | Help us understand how visitors use the site — which pages get traffic, how people navigate, and where they drop off — so we can improve it. | Google Analytics (_ga, _gid) | Up to 14 months |
| Preference | Remember choices you've made — dismissed banners, selected views — so you don't have to set them again on your next visit. | UI preference cookies | Up to 6 months |
| Marketing | Measure the effectiveness of our own ads and outreach. We do not use third-party advertising or retargeting networks to track you across other sites. | Campaign/referral attribution | Up to 90 days |
Essential cookies cannot be switched off since the site won't function properly without them. All other categories are optional and can be disabled — see "Managing Your Cookies" below.
Third-Party Cookies
Some cookies on our site are set by trusted third-party services we use to run and improve the site, not by us directly. These include:
- Analytics providers (e.g. Google Analytics) — to understand aggregate site usage.
- Payment processors — when you're completing a payment, their scripts may set cookies required for secure transaction processing.
- Embedded content — if we embed a video or widget from another platform, that platform may set its own cookies when the embed loads.
Each third party is responsible for its own cookies and governed by its own privacy policy — we recommend reviewing those where relevant.
Managing Your Cookies
You're in control of cookies at all times. You can:
- Use our cookie banner (shown on your first visit) to accept or decline non-essential cookie categories.
- Change your cookie preferences at any time by clearing site data in your browser and revisiting the site.
- Block or delete cookies entirely through your browser settings — most browsers let you view, delete, and block cookies on a site-by-site basis.
- Use private/incognito browsing to limit cookies to a single session.
Disabling non-essential cookies won't stop the site from working, but some features — like remembered preferences — may not behave as expected.
Do Not Track Signals
Some browsers offer a "Do Not Track" (DNT) setting. There's currently no unified industry standard for how sites should respond to DNT signals, so our site does not change its behaviour based on this setting. You can still manage cookies directly using the methods described above.
Changes to This Policy
We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time as our site or the technologies we use change. We'll post the updated version here with a revised effective date.
