Cookie Policy

Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites work more efficiently, provide a better user experience, and supply information to site owners.

Similar technologies include localStorage, sessionStorage, and web beacons, which serve comparable purposes. This policy covers all such technologies.

Zimly uses cookies and similar technologies to:

• Keep you signed in to your account during a session.
• Remember your preferences (such as currency selection).
• Understand how visitors use our website to improve performance.
• Ensure the website functions correctly and securely.

Strictly Necessary Cookies

These cookies are essential for the website to function. They enable core features like page navigation, secure areas, and session management. You cannot opt out of these cookies as the website cannot function without them.

Functional Cookies

These cookies remember your choices and preferences (such as your selected currency or language) to provide a more personalised experience. Disabling these may reduce functionality.

Analytics Cookies

These cookies help us understand how visitors interact with our website by collecting information anonymously. This data helps us improve our service and user experience. These cookies are only set with your consent.

In addition to cookies, Zimly uses your browser's localStorage to store certain preferences locally on your device. This includes:

• Currency preference: Your selected display currency (e.g., GBP, USD, EUR) so it persists across visits.
• Account settings: Preferences such as language and timezone selections.
• Cookie consent status: Whether you have accepted or rejected optional cookies.

localStorage data remains on your device until you clear your browser data or we programmatically remove it. It is not transmitted to our servers with each request (unlike cookies).

Some cookies may be set by third-party services embedded in our pages. Zimly does not control these cookies. Third parties that may set cookies include:

• Google (Gemini AI): Our AI assistant and recommendation engine uses Google's API. Google may set cookies as part of their service operation.
• Payment processors: When processing payments, our payment partner may use cookies for fraud prevention and security.

We encourage you to review the privacy and cookie policies of these third-party providers for full details on their practices.

When you first visit Zimly, a cookie consent banner will allow you to accept or reject optional cookies. You can change your preferences at any time by:

• Clicking the "Cookie Settings" link in our website footer.
• Adjusting your browser settings to block or delete cookies.
• Using your browser's developer tools to clear localStorage data.

Browser-Level Controls

Most browsers allow you to control cookies through their settings:

• Safari (Mac): Safari → Preferences → Privacy (⌘ + ,)
• Chrome: Settings → Privacy and Security → Cookies
• Firefox: Settings → Privacy & Security → Cookies
• Edge: Settings → Cookies and site permissions

Please note that disabling strictly necessary cookies may prevent the website from functioning correctly.

We may update this Cookie Policy to reflect changes in the cookies we use or for regulatory reasons. Changes will be posted on this page with an updated effective date.
