COOKIE POLICY
This Cookie Policy explains how ADD SALE uses cookies and similar technologies on the Platform. It should be read together with our Terms and Conditions and Privacy Policy. Capitalised terms not defined in this Cookie Policy have the meanings given in the Terms and Conditions.
1. Who we are
For the purposes of this Cookie Policy, “ADD SALE”, “we”, “us” and “our” means Sabiedrība ar ierobežotu atbildību “ADD sale”, a company incorporated under the laws of the Republic of Latvia with registration number 40103822268 and legal address at Burtnieku iela 36–1, Riga, LV-1084, Latvia.
Our contact details and communication channels (including privacy enquiries) are published on the Platform and may be updated from time to time.
2. What are cookies and similar technologies?
Cookies are small text files that are stored on your device (computer, mobile or tablet) when you visit a website. Your browser sends cookies back to the website on subsequent visits so the website can recognise your device, remember preferences, and support functionality.
We may also use similar technologies, such as:
- local storage (browser storage),
- pixels/tags (small code snippets used for analytics),
- SDKs (where applicable in embedded interfaces),
- server-side logs and device identifiers (for security and diagnostics).
For convenience, we refer to all such technologies as “cookies” in this Cookie Policy.
Cookies do not typically contain “documents” you upload or payment credentials. We do not intentionally store sensitive documents (such as IDs) inside cookies.
3. Why we use cookies
We use cookies to:
- enable and operate the Platform and core features (including form flows and security measures);
- maintain the integrity and security of the Platform (including abuse prevention and incident diagnostics);
- remember preferences and improve usability (e.g., language or cookie preferences);
- measure performance and understand usage patterns (analytics) to improve the Platform.
4. Types of cookies we may use
Depending on your device and how the Platform is configured at any given time, we may use the following categories:
A) Strictly necessary cookies (essential)
These cookies are required for the Platform to function and cannot be switched off in our systems (except through browser settings, which may break the Platform). They may include cookies used to:
- enable page navigation and basic functionality;
- maintain session state (e.g., keeping you in a flow);
- load-balance requests and protect the Platform (e.g., security tokens);
- prevent fraud and abuse and support security/diagnostic logging.
Legal basis (where applicable): our legitimate interests in operating, securing and maintaining the Platform and/or necessity to provide the Services you request, to the extent permitted by law.
B) Functional cookies (preferences)
These cookies allow the Platform to remember choices you make and provide enhanced features, such as:
- remembering preferences (e.g., language, region);
- remembering your cookie consent choices;
- improving usability and consistency across visits.
Functional cookies may be optional depending on configuration.
C) Analytics / performance cookies
These cookies help us understand how users interact with the Platform (e.g., which pages are visited, time spent, errors, and feature usage). We use this information to:
- improve the Platform’s performance and stability;
- troubleshoot issues and optimise user experience;
- understand aggregated usage patterns.
Analytics cookies may be provided by third-party analytics vendors. Where used, we aim to configure such tools in a proportionate way (e.g., limiting data and using aggregation) where feasible.
Consent: where required by applicable law, analytics cookies will be used only after you provide consent via the cookie banner/manager.
D) Marketing / targeting cookies (if used)
We may, from time to time, use cookies that help measure campaign effectiveness or support marketing communications (e.g., to understand whether users reached the Platform via a campaign).
Important: We do not commit to using marketing cookies. If we do use them, we will obtain consent where required by law and provide appropriate disclosures in the cookie banner/manager.
5. Third-party cookies
Some cookies may be set by third parties whose tools are integrated into the Platform (e.g., analytics, security, hosting or embedded content). Third parties may process information under their own terms and policies. We do not control third-party cookies in all cases, although we may be able to restrict or disable them via configuration.
Where required, third-party cookies are only placed after consent is given through the cookie banner/manager (except strictly necessary cookies, where permitted).
6. Cookie management and how you can control cookies
You can control cookies in several ways:
A) Cookie banner / cookie settings (where available)
Where the Platform provides a cookie banner or settings tool, you can manage your preferences (e.g., allow/deny analytics or marketing cookies) and change them later.
B) Browser settings
Most browsers allow you to:
- delete cookies already stored on your device;
- block all cookies or block third-party cookies;
- set rules for specific websites.
Please note that blocking or deleting cookies may affect the functionality, security and availability of parts of the Platform, and some features may not work correctly.
C) Device-level controls
On some devices, system settings may allow additional controls over tracking or cookies.
7. Data collected via cookies
Depending on the category of cookie, information collected may include:
- technical data such as IP address, browser type, device identifiers, operating system, language settings;
- usage data such as pages visited, referral URLs, timestamps, interactions/events;
- preference data such as consent status and settings.
Where cookie data constitutes personal data, it is processed in accordance with our Privacy Policy.
8. Updates to this Cookie Policy
We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time. The updated version will be published on the Platform and will apply from the date of publication.
