Cookie Privacy Policy Devoptiv

1. Scope and assent

By accessing or continuing to access Devoptiv websites and web applications you provide express assent to the placement and operation of cookies and related client side artefacts on the device you use. This document sets out the taxonomy of those artefacts, the instrumental purposes they serve, retention regimes, third party interactions, and the mechanisms available to you to limit or revoke prior assent.

2. Definition of cookies and related technologies

For purposes of this policy, cookies are small textual tokens issued to and stored by your browser. Related technologies include local storage, session tokens, pixel tags, beacons, fingerprinting heuristics and other persistent or ephemeral identifiers that permit device recognition, telemetry capture and state persistence.

3. Categories and operational intent

Strictly necessary cookies: essential for core operational integrity such as session management, authentication state and basic security checks. These are fundamental to service delivery and cannot be disabled without degrading functionality.

Preference and functional cookies: maintain user preferences and UI configuration to effect a persistent customized interface across visits.

Performance and analytics cookies: capture aggregated or pseudonymized telemetry for traffic measurement, load profiling and performance optimization. Data captured is used to inform engineering and product decisions.

Marketing and advertising cookies: enable cross session profiling, interest inference, targeted content selection and measurement of campaign efficacy. These may be set by third parties and may entail cross site linkage of identifiers.

4. Retention and scope matrix

Retention is determined by cookie type and issuer policy. Session cookies expire at session termination. Persistent cookies have explicit expiry horizons generally ranging from one month to twenty four months depending on purpose. Devoptiv applies minimization principles and retains only the data necessary for the declared processing objective. Aggregated or fully anonymized derivatives may be persisted for longitudinal analytics.

5. Third party components and responsibilities

Third parties that provide analytics, tag management, advertising or social integration may set their own cookies on pages served by Devoptiv. Devoptiv requires contractual assurances from such vendors regarding data handling and security controls but does not directly govern their operational practices. Users should consult the privacy and cookie notices of those vendors for granular details.

6. Consent management and controls

You may exercise control through the cookie preference panel presented on our site where you can enable or disable categories of cookies where technically feasible. Additional controls include browser level settings to block or clear cookies and vendor provided opt out mechanisms for advertising networks. Disabling non essential categories may impair functionality and degrade the user experience.

7. Withdrawal of consent and effectuation

Where processing is predicated on consent you may withdraw that consent at any time by updating preferences in the site control or by clearing cookies via your browser. Withdrawal is prospective and does not retroactively affect processing that occurred while consent was active.

8. Security, minimisation and governance

Devoptiv deploys administrative and technical safeguards to limit exposure of personal data derived from cookies. Wherever practicable we apply pseudonymization or aggregation at the earliest feasible processing stage. Access to identifiable cookie derived data is restricted to personnel with a demonstrable business need and subject to periodic review.

9. Changes to this policy

This policy may be revised to reflect regulatory developments, vendor changes or architectural updates. Material revisions will be published with an updated last modified date. Continued use of Devoptiv services following publication constitutes acceptance of the revised terms.
