Cookies Policy
Last updated: 2026-07-16
This cookies policy applies to the website, products and services offered under the brand WAAPI, operated by WAAPI (“we”, “us”, “our”), acting as the business. By accessing or using our services you agree to this cookies policy. If you do not agree, please discontinue use of the services.
1. What cookies are
Cookies are small text files stored on your device by your browser. We also use similar technologies — local storage, session storage and pixels — and this policy covers all of them.
2. Cookies we use
| Category | Purpose | Can you refuse? |
|---|---|---|
| Strictly necessary | Session and security cookies that keep you signed in and protect against cross-site request forgery. | No — the service cannot function without them. |
| Functional | Preferences such as theme, language and sidebar state. | Yes — the panel still works, but forgets your preferences. |
| Analytics | Aggregate usage measurement that helps us improve the product. | Yes. |
| Advertising & conversion | Set only where the site owner has enabled an advertising pixel (for example Meta Pixel or a Google Ads tag) to measure campaign performance. | Yes. |
| Payment & anti-fraud | Set by our payment gateways during checkout to detect fraud. | No — checkout will not complete without them. |
3. Managing cookies
You can control cookies through your browser settings (block, delete, or prompt). Blocking strictly-necessary cookies will break sign-in and checkout. Where a consent banner is shown, you can change your choice at any time from that banner.
4. Third-party cookies
Embedded services — payment checkout, video, support chat, advertising pixels — may set their own cookies under their own policies. The providers are listed in our sub-processor register.
5. Do Not Track
There is no industry consensus on how to respond to browser Do-Not-Track signals; we do not currently respond to them. You can still refuse non-essential cookies as described above.
