Cookie Policy

This Cookie Policy explains how Canary Bulls uses cookies and similar technologies when you visit or use our website, applications, platform and related services.

It explains what these technologies are, why we use them, which types of technologies may be used, and how you can control technologies that require your consent.

This Cookie Policy should be read together with our Privacy Notice and Terms of Use & Software Licence .

Cookies are small files or pieces of information stored on your device when you visit a website. They can allow a website to recognise your device, maintain a session, remember preferences or perform other functions.

This policy also covers similar technologies that store information on, or access information from, your device. These can include local storage, tracking pixels, scripts, tags, device identifiers and other storage or access technologies.

The rules applicable to these technologies can apply whether or not the technology is technically a traditional browser cookie. The Information Commissioner's Office (ICO) guidance refers broadly to these as storage and access technologies.

Depending on how Canary Bulls is configured, we may use cookies and similar technologies for purposes including:

• keeping users securely logged in;
• maintaining authentication and user sessions;
• protecting accounts and preventing fraudulent activity;
• protecting the security and integrity of the service;
• remembering cookie and privacy preferences;
• remembering user or interface preferences;
• maintaining website functionality;
• understanding how the website is used;
• measuring website performance;
• diagnosing technical problems;
• improving the website, platform and user experience;
• providing embedded or third-party functionality; and
• where separately permitted and consented to, analytics, advertising, marketing or tracking activities.

We will only use non-essential cookies and similar technologies where we have the required permission or another applicable legal basis or exemption.

Some cookies or similar technologies may be strictly necessary to provide a service that you have requested or to operate the website securely.

These may include technologies used for functions such as:

• authentication and account sessions;
• security and fraud prevention;
• load balancing and service availability;
• maintaining essential application functionality;
• remembering essential security settings; and
• storing your cookie-consent preferences.

Where a technology is genuinely strictly necessary, applicable rules may allow it to be used without obtaining consent. However, we will still provide information about these technologies where appropriate.

A technology is not treated as strictly necessary merely because it is useful to us, convenient, or commercially beneficial.

We may use analytics or performance technologies to understand how visitors use Canary Bulls and to identify technical or usability issues.

Depending on the technology used, this may allow us to understand information such as pages visited, interactions, approximate usage patterns, device or browser information and technical performance.

Analytics technologies that are not strictly necessary will only be activated where the required consent has been obtained.

We may use technologies to remember preferences or settings that improve your experience.

Depending on their specific purpose, some functionality may fall within an applicable exemption while other functionality may require consent.

Where consent is required, these technologies will not be activated until you have made the relevant choice through our consent mechanism.

If Canary Bulls uses advertising, marketing, behavioural tracking, retargeting, social-media tracking or similar technologies, these will be treated as non-essential unless an applicable legal exception genuinely applies.

We will obtain the required consent before activating such technologies.

We do not treat advertising or commercial benefit as making a technology strictly necessary.

Some technologies may be provided by third parties. Depending on the services integrated into Canary Bulls, these may include providers of analytics, security, hosting, embedded content, payment services, customer support, communications, monitoring or other functionality.

Third-party technologies may allow the relevant provider to receive or access information from your device.

Where consent is required for a third-party technology, we will not activate it before the required consent has been obtained.

The actual third-party providers used by Canary Bulls should be listed in the cookie consent interface and/or cookie inventory once the website's technical configuration has been finalised.

Canary Bulls should maintain an up-to-date inventory of all cookies and similar technologies actually used by the website and its integrated services.

The inventory should identify, where applicable:

• the cookie or technology name;
• whether it is first-party or third-party;
• the provider;
• the purpose;
• the category;
• the information stored or accessed;
• the duration or expiry period;
• whether it is a session or persistent technology;
• whether it is strictly necessary; and
• whether consent is required.

Any list of individual cookies published by Canary Bulls should reflect the actual technical configuration of the service and should be reviewed when the website, software or third-party services change.

Where consent is required, we will ask for consent before setting or accessing the relevant non-essential cookies or similar technologies.

Consent should be freely given, specific, informed and based on a clear affirmative action.

Simply continuing to browse the website will not, by itself, be treated as consent to non-essential cookies.

Our cookie consent mechanism should provide an appropriate way to refuse non-essential technologies as well as accept them.

We may retain information about your cookie choices so that we can respect your preferences and avoid repeatedly asking you the same question.

Where non-essential cookies or similar technologies are used, you should be able to change or withdraw your consent.

Canary Bulls will provide a means of accessing or reopening the cookie preference mechanism where appropriate.

Your ability to withdraw consent will not affect the lawfulness of processing carried out before withdrawal.

Where you withdraw consent, we will stop using the relevant non-essential technologies where technically and legally required. Some website functionality may be affected if optional technologies are disabled.

Most modern browsers allow you to control, delete or block cookies through their settings.

You may be able to configure your browser to block cookies, delete stored cookies, block third-party cookies or notify you when cookies are being used.

Browser controls may not provide the same level of granularity as the Canary Bulls cookie preference mechanism. Blocking essential technologies may also prevent parts of Canary Bulls from operating correctly.

Some cookies and similar technologies may involve information that constitutes personal data.

Where personal data is processed, we will handle it in accordance with applicable data protection law and our Privacy Notice .

Depending on the circumstances, this may include information such as online identifiers, device information, IP addresses, account-related information or information about how the service is used.

We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time to reflect changes to the website, the technologies we use, third-party services, legal requirements or our privacy practices.

Where appropriate, we will update our cookie consent mechanism and request fresh consent where required.

You should periodically review this page for the latest information about our use of cookies and similar technologies.
