Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you visit our website. Think of them as tiny notes that help our site remember things about your visit. Some people get nervous about cookies, but honestly, most of them just make your experience better.

We use cookies for a few practical reasons. They help us remember your preferences so you don't have to reset everything each time you visit. They also help us understand which parts of our site are actually useful and which might need work. And yes, some cookies help us show you relevant information based on what you're interested in—but you have control over those.

Beyond standard cookies, we use a few other tracking methods that work in similar ways. Session storage keeps temporary data while you're actively using the site—it clears automatically when you close your browser. Local storage holds information for longer periods, like saved preferences or draft content you're working on.

We also use pixels and beacons—tiny, invisible images embedded in web pages and emails. These help us understand if content was delivered and viewed. If you've ever wondered how we know an email was opened, that's usually a tracking pixel at work.

Let me give you some concrete examples. When you're working with financial data on zorinthera.com, cookies remember which charts you've customized and which metrics you track regularly. That means you don't waste time reconfiguring dashboards every time you log in.

Analytics cookies help us identify confusing navigation patterns. If we notice lots of people getting stuck on a particular page, that's a signal we need to redesign it. We've made dozens of improvements this way—all based on actual user behavior rather than guesswork.

Some cookies on zorinthera.com come from external services we use—analytics platforms, content delivery networks, and similar tools. These third parties have their own privacy policies, and honestly, they might handle data differently than we do.

We're selective about which third-party services we integrate. We don't work with companies that sell personal data or use overly aggressive tracking. But you should know that when you interact with embedded content or external tools, those providers might set their own cookies.

Technology changes. Regulations evolve. We might start using new tools or stop using old ones. When we make meaningful changes to how we handle cookies and tracking, we'll update this policy and change the date at the top.

We won't send you an email notification for minor updates—that would get annoying fast. But if we make significant changes to what data we collect or how we use it, we'll let you know through a notice on the site or via email if appropriate.
