Cookie Policy

Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you visit a website. They serve various functions including storing preferences, tracking session information, and enabling certain website features.

Cookies are commonly categorized by function:

• Essential/Necessary: Required for basic website function and security
• Functional: Enable enhanced features and personalization
• Analytical: Track usage patterns and user behavior
• Marketing/Advertising: Serve targeted content and track across sites

Essential Cookies Only

Yrgata uses only essential cookies required for basic website function. We do not use analytical, tracking, or marketing cookies.

Cookie Consent Storage

We store your cookie consent preferences in a cookie on your device. This respects your choice regarding the minimal data we collect.

• Name: yrgata_cookie_consent
• Purpose: Stores your preference (accepted/declined) for cookie usage
• Duration: Persists until you clear browser cookies
• Data: Only stores your consent preference, no personal information

Session Function

Session-related data may be stored temporarily to maintain website functionality during your visit, but this does not involve personal data collection.

Yrgata does not use:

• Google Analytics: We do not track page views, session duration, or user behavior
• Marketing cookies: We do not serve targeted advertisements or track you across the web
• Third-party tracking: We do not use pixels, tags, or third-party tracking services
• Profiling cookies: We do not build profiles of your interests or behavior
• Advertising networks: We do not use Facebook Pixel, Google Ads cookies, or similar
• Retargeting: We do not follow you across websites with ads

Transparent Consent

Yrgata displays a cookie banner informing you about our essential cookie usage. The banner provides:

• Clear information about cookie usage
• Options to accept or decline cookies
• Link to this cookie policy for detailed information

Local Storage

Your consent preference is stored locally in your browser. We do not transmit your preference to servers or third parties.

Browser Settings

Most browsers allow you to control cookies through settings:

• Accept or reject all cookies
• Accept only essential cookies
• Delete cookies when closing the browser
• Manage site-specific cookie preferences

Cookie Controls

You can use the cookie banner on Yrgata to manage your preferences. Changing your preference updates the consent cookie stored on your device.

Do Not Track

If your browser has "Do Not Track" enabled, we respect that signal and do not track your activity (though our minimal tracking approach means this is largely irrelevant for Yrgata).

Yrgata does not embed third-party services that set cookies. We do not use:

• Social media plugins (Facebook Like, Twitter Share, etc.)
• Analytics services
• Advertising networks
• Customer support plugins with tracking
• Any other third-party services that collect data

External links may go to sites that use cookies, but that is their responsibility, not Yrgata's.

Yrgata employs standard security practices:

• HTTPS encryption for website communication
• Secure cookie flags to prevent unauthorized access
• HttpOnly flags where applicable to prevent JavaScript access

Given the minimal cookies we use and their non-personal nature, security risks are minimal.

Yrgata uses only essential cookies necessary for basic website function. We do not track your behavior, profile you for marketing, serve targeted ads, or use third-party tracking services. Your privacy is our priority, and our minimal cookie use reflects that commitment.
