At Sparkkith, we want you to feel comfortable and informed when you use our website. This Cookie Policy explains what cookies are, how we use them, and the choices you have.
If you have any questions, please contact us at support@sparkkith.com.

1. What are cookies?

Cookies are small text files placed on your device (computer, phone, or tablet) when you visit a website. They help the site remember your actions and preferences, and they can also be used to understand how people use the site.
There are different types of cookies:
-Essential cookies – required for the site to work properly.
-Analytics cookies – help us understand how the site is used and improve it.
-Preference or functional cookies – remember your settings or choices.
-Marketing or advertising cookies – track browsing across websites to deliver ads. (We do not use these.)

2. How we use cookies at Sparkkith

We use cookies for the following purposes:
-To make the site work. Some cookies are necessary for security, navigation, and performance. These do not require consent.
-To understand and improve. With your consent, we use analytics cookies to see things like which pages are most visited, how people arrive at the site, and how long they stay. This information helps us improve our website and track interest in Sparkkith.
-To keep track of choices, for example, whether you accepted or rejected analytics cookies in the banner.
We do not use cookies to run ads or track you across other websites.

3. Consent and control

When you first visit our site, you will see a cookie banner. This allows you to:
-Accept analytics cookies
-Reject analytics cookies
-Learn more through this Cookie Policy
Essential cookies are always active because the site cannot function without them. Analytics cookies are only set if you accept them.

You can change your mind at any time by:
-Clicking “Cookie Settings” in the footer of our site (where available)
-Adjusting your browser settings to block or delete cookies

4. Third-party cookies

Some cookies are set by third parties who provide services for us. These third parties may process data outside the United Kingdom, including in the United States. Where this happens, safeguards such as Standard Contractual Clauses are used to protect your information.

5. What cookies we use

The exact cookies may change as we improve the site, but typically include:
-Essential cookies – required for navigation, security, and basic site operation.
-Analytics cookies – provided by an analytics service (such as Google Analytics) to help us understand how the site is used.
Analytics cookies may collect:
-Which pages you visit and how long you spend on them
-How you arrived at the site (e.g. search engine, social media, direct link)
-General information about your device, browser, and approximate location
We use this data only in anonymised aggregated form to improve the site and to share overall statistics (e.g. number of visitors) with partners or investors

6. Data retention

Essential cookies usually last only for the session or a short period.
Analytics cookies may last longer (from a few days to several months) depending on the provider’s settings.
You can delete cookies at any time in your browser.

7. Your choices

You are in control. You can:
-Accept or reject analytics cookies in the banner
-Change your preferences later
-Delete or block cookies in your browser
Please note that blocking essential cookies may make parts of the site stop working properly.

8. Updates to this policy

We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time. When we do, we will post the new version here with a new effective date.
