Cookie Policy

This Cookie Policy provides detailed information about the use of cookies and similar tracking technologies on the bigboost-online.net website. The purpose of this document is to explain what these technologies are, why we use them, and your rights to control our use of them. This policy should be read in conjunction with our Privacy Policy and forms an integral part of our overall Terms and Conditions. By using our platform, you acknowledge that we may store and access cookies on your computer or other device.

What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files containing a modest amount of information that are downloaded to your device when you visit a website. These files are then sent back to the originating website on each subsequent visit, or to another website that recognises that cookie. This process enables the website to recognise a user’s device and remember certain information or preferences over time. This technology is fundamental to the operation of most modern websites, facilitating a more personalised and efficient user experience.

First-Party and Third-Party Technologies

Tracking technologies can be classified by their origin. ‘First-party’ technologies are set by the website you are visiting directly; in our case, these are set by our own platform. ‘Third-party’ technologies are set by a domain other than the one you are visiting, typically by partners or service providers we work with to deliver certain features on our website, such as analytics or advertising.

Session and Persistent Technologies

Cookies can also be categorised based on their lifespan. ‘Session’ files are temporary and exist only for the duration of your visit to our website; they are deleted automatically once you close your browser. ‘Persistent’ files remain on your device for a pre-defined period or until you manually delete them, and they are activated each time you revisit the website that created that particular file.

Types of Technologies We Use

For the effective delivery of our services, our platform is structured with several distinct functional categories. Each is integral to ensuring the security, functionality, and user-friendliness of our website, as well as for analytical and marketing purposes. A detailed breakdown of these functional categories is provided for your information.

Strictly Necessary

For the core operation of our platform, it is essential to enable your navigation and use of its features. This includes performing fundamental functions such as user authentication, maintaining the security of your account and data, and ensuring service stability. As these processes are indispensable for the secure and proper functioning of the website, they cannot be disabled through our management tools. The primary functions include:

  • Enabling you to log into secure areas of our website.
  • Remembering your actions within a single browsing session.
  • Facilitating financial transactions, such as deposits and withdrawals.
  • Detecting and preventing fraudulent activity and security threats.
  • Ensuring compliance with legal and regulatory obligations.

Performance and Analytical

To continuously improve our platform, information about user interactions is gathered. This process collects aggregated and anonymous data to help us understand visitor behaviour, identify popular pages, and detect technical errors. The insights gained from this analysis are crucial for optimising the website’s structure, content, and overall performance. This information is used for the following purposes:

  • To understand user behaviour and identify navigation patterns.
  • To count the number of unique visitors to our website.
  • To measure the effectiveness of our content and features.
  • To monitor server performance and identify potential technical issues.
  • To improve the overall user experience by making the website more intuitive.

Functionality

To provide an enhanced and personalised user experience, our platform remembers the choices you make during your visits. This allows the website to offer more personal features and tailor content to your specific needs, making your interactions more convenient and efficient. The information gathered for this purpose may be anonymised and does not track your browsing activity on other websites. This supports the following functionalities:

  • Remembering your username, language preference, and region.
  • Storing your display preferences, such as text size or layout.
  • Recalling settings you have applied to your account.
  • Providing services you have requested, such as watching a video or commenting.

Targeting and Advertising

To deliver promotional content relevant to your interests, your browsing activity is recorded by our platform and advertising partners. Information about your visit, the pages you viewed, and the links you followed is collected. This data is then used to build a profile of your interests to show you more relevant advertisements on our website and other sites. The main objectives are:

  • To deliver advertisements that are tailored to your interests.
  • To limit the number of times you see a particular advertisement.
  • To measure the effectiveness and reach of our advertising campaigns.
  • To share information with third-party partners for advertising purposes.

Managing Your Cookie Preferences

We provide you with robust tools to control the use of cookies on our platform, allowing you to tailor your experience according to your preferences. You can manage your consent for different categories of cookies at any time, with the exception of Strictly Necessary Cookies, which are essential for the website’s operation. Your choices are respected and will be applied to your current and future visits.

On-Site Cookie Settings

Upon your first visit to our website, you will be presented with a cookie consent banner that allows you to accept or decline the use of different cookie categories. You can also access and modify your preferences at any time through the “Cookie Settings” link, typically located in the footer of our website. This interface provides granular control, enabling you to opt-in or opt-out of Performance, Functionality, and Targeting cookies individually.

Browser Settings

In addition to our website’s tools, you can manage cookie preferences directly in your browser settings. Most browsers allow you to view, manage, delete, and block website cookies. Please note: if you block all cookies in your browser settings, including strictly necessary ones, you may lose access to all or part of our website. Cookie management varies by browser, so please be careful.

Third-Party Cookies

Some features and services on our platform are provided by third-party companies, who may set their own cookies on your device when you interact with our website. These third parties include analytics providers, advertising networks, and payment processors. We do not have control over the placement or operation of these cookies. We recommend that you review the respective privacy and cookie policies of these third parties to understand how they collect and use your data.
