TRACKING PROTOCOLS
Last Updated: October 1, 2025
What Are Cookies
Cookies are small text files placed on your device by websites you visit. These files serve as identification markers enabling websites to recognize returning users and remember specific information about their interactions. F4NEXUS utilizes cookies and similar tracking technologies to optimize platform functionality and enhance user experience across all sessions.
Cookies contain data strings transmitted between web browsers and servers, allowing systems to maintain session states, store user preferences, and analyze usage patterns. Modern web applications rely on cookie technology to provide personalized, efficient services that adapt to individual user needs and behaviors.
Types of Cookies We Use
F4NEXUS implements multiple cookie categories, each serving distinct purposes within our platform infrastructure:
Essential Cookies
These cookies are fundamental to platform operation and cannot be disabled within our systems. Essential cookies enable core functionality including user authentication, security protocols, and session management. Without these cookies, critical services such as account access, shopping cart functionality, and secure transactions would not function properly.
Performance Cookies
Performance cookies collect anonymous data regarding user interactions, page views, navigation patterns, and error encounters. This information helps us identify technical issues, optimize page loading times, and improve overall platform performance. We aggregate this data to analyze trends without identifying individual users.
Functionality Cookies
Functionality cookies remember choices you make while using our platform, including language preferences, display settings, and customization options. These cookies enable personalized experiences by storing your preferences across sessions, eliminating the need to repeatedly configure settings during each visit.
Analytics Cookies
We utilize analytics cookies to understand how users interact with our platform, which features generate most engagement, and where users encounter difficulties. This data informs our development priorities and content strategies. Analytics cookies track metrics such as session duration, page views, conversion rates, and user flow patterns.
Third-Party Cookies
Certain F4NEXUS features integrate third-party services that may place their own cookies on your device. These services include payment processors, analytics platforms, content delivery networks, and social media integration tools. Third-party cookies operate under the privacy policies of their respective providers rather than F4NEXUS policies.
We carefully select third-party partners maintaining rigorous privacy standards and data protection practices. However, we cannot control third-party cookie implementation or data handling procedures. We recommend reviewing the privacy policies of third-party services you interact with through our platform.
Managing Cookie Preferences
You maintain complete control over cookie acceptance and management through various mechanisms:
Browser Settings
Most web browsers allow you to control cookie behavior through preference settings. You can configure your browser to refuse all cookies, accept only certain cookie types, or notify you when cookies are being set. However, disabling certain cookies may limit platform functionality and degrade your user experience.
Opt-Out Tools
Various industry organizations provide opt-out tools for analytics and advertising cookies. These tools enable you to decline tracking by multiple services simultaneously. Note that opt-out tools themselves rely on cookies, so clearing your browser cookies will reset your opt-out preferences.
Platform Controls
F4NEXUS provides cookie preference controls accessible through your account settings. You can selectively enable or disable non-essential cookie categories while maintaining core platform functionality. Changes to cookie preferences take effect immediately and apply across all your sessions.
Cookie Duration
Cookies operate on different timescales depending on their purpose. Session cookies expire when you close your browser, maintaining no persistent data between visits. Persistent cookies remain on your device for specified periods, ranging from days to years, enabling features like automatic login and saved preferences.
Updates to Cookie Policy
We reserve the right to modify this cookie policy to reflect changes in our practices, technologies, or legal requirements. Material changes will be communicated through platform notifications or email. Continued platform use following policy updates constitutes acceptance of revised terms.
