3. Types of Cookies We Use

3.1 Essential Cookies

These cookies are necessary for the Platform to function properly. They enable core functionality such as security, authentication, and accessibility. The Platform cannot function properly without these cookies.

These cookies help us understand how visitors interact with our Platform by collecting and reporting information anonymously. This helps us improve the Platform's performance and user experience.

These cookies allow the Platform to remember choices you make (such as your language preference) and provide enhanced, more personalized features.

We may use third-party services that also set cookies on your device, including:

• Stripe: For secure payment processing

These third parties have their own privacy policies and cookie policies, which we encourage you to review.

6. Do Not Track Signals

Some web browsers have a "Do Not Track" feature. Currently, there is no industry standard for how to respond to these signals, so PledgeEdge does not currently respond to Do Not Track browser signals.
