1. What are cookies?

Cookies are small text files that are placed on your device when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites work more efficiently and to provide information to website owners. Cookies can be "first-party" (set by the site you're visiting) or "third-party" (set by a different site).

2. How Cincht uses cookies

Cincht uses cookies and similar technologies for the following purposes: • Essential/Strictly necessary: Required for the platform to function. These include session cookies, authentication cookies, and security cookies. You cannot opt out of these. • Analytics: Help us understand how visitors use the site (e.g. page views, time on page). We use anonymised analytics to improve our services. • Affiliate tracking: A cookie is set when a user clicks an affiliate referral link. This cookie has a 90-day lifetime and is used to attribute sign-ups to the correct affiliate partner. • Preferences: Remember your settings and preferences (e.g. language, dashboard layout).

3. Affiliate referral cookies

When a prospective customer clicks an affiliate referral link, Cincht sets a first-party cookie named "affiliate_ref" with a 90-day expiry. This cookie stores the affiliate's referral code only. It does not store personal data. If the customer signs up for Cincht within 90 days, the referral is attributed to the affiliate and a commission may be earned. The cookie is cleared upon successful registration.
