1. What are cookies and local storage?
- Cookies are small text files stored on your device by your browser when you use our service. They allow us to remember your preferences and ensure proper application functionality.
- Local storage is a similar browser storage technology that allows us to save information on your device without an expiration date. We use it to remember your decisions (e.g. accepted warnings).
- In this policy, "cookies" refers to both cookies and local storage, unless explicitly stated otherwise.
2. Legal Basis
- For EU/UK users: Essential cookies do not require consent (Art. 5(3) ePrivacy Directive). For analytics cookies, we require your explicit consent (opt-in) before setting them.
- For US users: We do not require opt-in consent for cookies. If you are in California, you have the right to opt out of the sale of data — however, Yummo does not sell data collected through cookies.
- For Canadian users: PIPEDA requires consent for data collection. Essential cookies operate on implied consent, while analytics cookies require explicit consent.
- For Australian users: The Privacy Act 1988 does not require separate cookie consent, but we inform you about them in accordance with the transparency principle (APP 1).
