This policy explains the cookies and similar technologies we use on the FICAVault website and web application, and how you can control them. It should be read together with our Privacy Policy.
1. What are cookies?
Cookies are small text files stored on your device by your browser. Similar technologies include local storage, session storage and pixel tags. They let a site remember information about your visit so that things like staying signed in, remembering preferences and measuring usage all work.
2. Cookies we use
Strictly necessary
- Authentication and session: keep you signed in and protect your session with our authentication provider.
- Security: detect abuse, CSRF protection, rate-limiting.
- Load balancing: route your requests to the correct server.
These cookies cannot be switched off in our systems — the platform will not work without them.
Preferences
- Remember UI choices such as dashboard layout, dismissed banners or theme.
Analytics (aggregated)
- Help us understand how the platform is used so we can improve it. Where we use analytics we configure them for IP truncation and no cross-site tracking.
We do not use advertising cookies and we do not sell your data to advertisers.
3. Controlling cookies
Most browsers let you view, delete and block cookies from their settings. Blocking strictly-necessary cookies will break authentication and prevent you from signing in. Helpful links:
4. Changes
We may update this policy as the technologies we use change. Material changes will be notified in-app.
