Welcome to Reydero. This Cookie Policy explains how Reydero may use cookies and similar technologies when you visit, browse or use Reydero's website, pages, services and features.
Important: The exact technologies used by Reydero may change as the platform develops. This policy therefore describes the categories and purposes of technologies that Reydero may use rather than claiming that every category is active on every page or at every time.
What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files or similar identifiers that a website may store on your browser or device. They can allow a website to recognize a particular browser or remember information from an earlier visit.
Cookies can be useful because they allow websites to remember information such as whether you are signed in, which settings you selected or which technical functions are required for your current session.
Reydero may also use technologies that perform functions similar to cookies, including browser storage, local storage, session identifiers, pixels, web beacons and similar technologies.
A cookie does not necessarily contain your name or directly identify you. However, a cookie or identifier may sometimes be associated with an account, device, browser or other information.
How Reydero May Use Cookies
Depending on the technology actually implemented, Reydero may use cookies and similar technologies for purposes such as:
- Maintaining a secure login and user session.
- Remembering selected preferences and settings.
- Supporting requested website functionality.
- Protecting accounts and platform infrastructure.
- Detecting suspicious or abusive activity.
- Preventing certain forms of automated misuse.
- Understanding how visitors use Reydero.
- Measuring technical performance.
- Identifying problems with pages or features.
- Improving navigation and usability.
- Remembering choices made by users.
- Supporting analytics or other optional technologies where they are implemented and permitted.
Cookie-related information that constitutes personal data will be handled consistently with applicable privacy requirements and Reydero's Privacy Policy .
Types of Cookies We May Use
Cookies can be grouped according to their purpose. The following categories describe the types of technologies that may be relevant to Reydero.
Strictly Necessary Cookies
Some cookies or similar technologies may be necessary for Reydero to operate correctly.
For example, they may help maintain a secure authentication session, recognize an authenticated browser, maintain security controls or enable a feature that you have specifically requested.
If these technologies are blocked or removed, some parts of Reydero may stop working correctly.
Because necessary technologies can support essential functionality or security, disabling them may affect your ability to sign in or use certain Reydero features.
Preference Cookies
Preference cookies or similar technologies may allow Reydero to remember choices you have made.
Depending on the features available, this may include certain interface preferences, display settings, previously selected options or other choices designed to make your experience more convenient.
If these technologies are disabled, Reydero may still operate, but you may need to repeat certain selections.
Analytics & Performance Technologies
If Reydero implements analytics or performance technologies, they may help us understand how the platform is being used.
Depending on the tool, this may help us understand:
- Which pages receive attention.
- Which features are being used.
- How users navigate through Reydero.
- Whether pages are loading correctly.
- Whether technical errors are occurring.
- How the platform performs across different browsers or devices.
- Which areas of Reydero could be improved.
Analytics information may be aggregated or otherwise processed according to the configuration of the relevant service.
Reydero will not describe an analytics provider as being active merely because analytics technology could be used in the future. This policy is intended to describe potential categories while actual integrations may change.
Third-Party Technologies
Certain Reydero features may use services provided by independent third parties.
Depending on the integrations actually used, these services could include infrastructure, security, analytics, authentication, payment processing, embedded content or other technical services.
A third-party service may place or access its own cookies or similar technologies when its service is integrated into Reydero.
Third-party providers may have their own privacy policies, cookie policies and terms. Where applicable, you should review the information provided by the relevant provider.
The specific third-party providers used by Reydero may change over time. We therefore avoid listing providers here unless they are actually integrated into the relevant Reydero service.
Cookies & Your Reydero Account
When you sign in to Reydero, session and authentication technologies may be used to maintain your login state.
These technologies can help Reydero distinguish requests belonging to an authenticated session from requests made by visitors who are not signed in.
They may also support security controls intended to reduce unauthorized account access and session abuse.
You should also protect your own account by keeping your password and device secure and by signing out when using a shared device.
Your Cookie Choices
Your choices can depend on the type and purpose of the technology being used.
- Accept optional technologies where applicable.
- Reject optional technologies where a choice is provided.
- Manage optional cookie preferences.
- Withdraw consent where consent is the applicable basis for processing.
- Delete cookies through your browser.
- Block cookies through browser controls.
Where Reydero relies on consent for a particular processing activity, the consent mechanism should be presented clearly and should not be hidden inside unrelated information.
Under the Digital Personal Data Protection Act, 2023, consent is required to be free, specific, informed, unconditional and unambiguous, with clear affirmative action. Where consent is the basis of processing, the Act also provides a right to withdraw consent, with the ease of withdrawal comparable to the ease with which consent was given.
Managing Cookies Through Your Browser
Most modern browsers provide controls that allow you to manage cookies.
Depending on your browser, you may be able to:
- View cookies stored by websites.
- Delete existing cookies.
- Block all cookies.
- Block selected categories of cookies.
- Allow cookies only for selected websites.
- Receive warnings before certain cookies are stored.
Browser controls differ between browsers, operating systems and devices. Blocking cookies may affect the way Reydero operates, especially where cookies are required for login, security or other core functions.
Deleting Cookies
You can generally delete stored cookies from your browser settings.
Deleting cookies does not necessarily delete information that Reydero may already have received or stored on its servers.
If you want to request deletion of personal information associated with your Reydero account, that is a different process and is addressed in our Privacy Policy .
Session Cookies
Session cookies are generally intended to remain available only while a browsing session is active.
They can be useful for maintaining temporary authentication, navigation or security information.
Depending on the browser and implementation, session information may be removed when the browsing session ends.
Persistent Cookies
Persistent cookies can remain on a device for a defined period or until they are manually removed.
They may be useful for remembering preferences or recognizing a returning browser.
The duration of an individual cookie depends on its purpose, configuration and the service that creates it.
| Category | Possible Purpose | Typical Duration |
|---|---|---|
| Session | Login, navigation or temporary functionality. | Session-dependent |
| Preference | Remembering selected settings. | Depends on configuration |
| Security | Authentication and abuse prevention. | Depends on security requirement |
| Analytics | Understanding usage and performance, where implemented. | Depends on provider/configuration |
Cookies & Security
Reydero may use cookies and similar technologies as part of its security architecture.
Security-related technologies may assist with:
- Protecting authenticated sessions.
- Detecting unusual activity.
- Reducing automated abuse.
- Protecting certain platform functions.
- Helping investigate suspicious activity.
Cookies are only one part of security. Reydero may also use server-side controls, access controls, logging, monitoring and other technical or organizational safeguards where appropriate.
Cookies & Personal Data
Not every cookie or identifier is necessarily personal data. However, depending on the circumstances, information associated with a cookie may be capable of being linked to a person, account, browser or device.
Where cookie-related information is treated as personal data, Reydero will handle it according to the applicable privacy framework and the commitments described in our Privacy Policy.
India's Digital Personal Data Protection Act provides that personal data may be processed for a lawful purpose, including where the individual has given consent or where a specified legitimate use applies.
The Act also requires notice accompanying or preceding a request for consent to explain the personal data involved, the purpose of processing and relevant rights and complaint mechanisms.
Consent & Optional Technologies
Where Reydero uses optional cookies or similar technologies that require consent, the relevant choice should be presented in a clear and understandable way.
We do not intend to treat continued browsing alone as a substitute for clear affirmative consent where applicable law requires consent for the relevant processing.
Where consent is obtained, users should have a practical way to change or withdraw that choice.
The notified Digital Personal Data Protection Rules, 2025 require the relevant notice to be understandable independently and to explain the personal data and specified purposes in clear and plain language. The Rules also specify information about how consent can be withdrawn and rights exercised.
Cookies & Children
Reydero takes the privacy and safety of younger users seriously.
Where applicable law requires additional protections, parental consent, age-related controls or other safeguards for children's personal data, Reydero will apply the requirements relevant to the service and circumstances.
The notified DPDP Rules contain specific provisions concerning verifiable parental consent for processing children's personal data.
Additional information about young users can be found in our Privacy Policy .
Third-Party Websites
Reydero may contain links to websites or services operated by other organizations.
When you leave Reydero and visit an external website, that website may use its own cookies and similar technologies.
This Cookie Policy applies to Reydero's services and does not automatically govern independent third-party websites.
We recommend reviewing the privacy and cookie policies of external websites before providing them with personal information.
Do Not Track & Browser Privacy Signals
Some browsers and devices provide privacy settings or signals intended to communicate preferences about tracking or similar technologies.
Browser standards and implementations can differ. Therefore, the way a particular privacy signal is interpreted may depend on the technology involved and the applicable legal requirements.
Reydero will seek to handle applicable privacy choices in accordance with the relevant legal and technical requirements.
What Cookies Cannot Do
Cookies do not automatically give Reydero access to everything stored on your device.
A website cookie is not the same thing as unrestricted access to your files, photographs, contacts, camera, microphone or other device resources.
Access to device capabilities, where supported, may require separate technical permissions or user actions depending on the feature and device.
Changes to Our Cookie Technologies
Reydero is a developing platform. As we add features, improve security, introduce analytics, change infrastructure or integrate new services, the technologies used on the platform may change.
We may therefore add, remove or modify cookies and similar technologies.
Where a material change requires additional notice or consent under applicable law, Reydero will take the appropriate steps.
Changes to This Cookie Policy
We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our technology, services, privacy practices or legal requirements.
The "Last updated" date at the beginning of this page will indicate when the policy was most recently updated.
If changes are significant and applicable law requires additional communication or consent, we will take the steps required by law.
