Cookie Policy
This Cookie Policy explains how SoftVilla ("SoftVilla", "we", "us" or "our") uses cookies and similar technologies on https://www.softvillasolutions.com (the "Site"). It should be read together with our Privacy Policy.
1. What cookies are
Cookies are small text files that a website stores on your device when you visit it. They help the website work, remember your choices and understand how it is used. Similar technologies, such as local storage and pixels, work in a comparable way. In this policy we refer to all of them as "cookies".
Cookies set by the website you are visiting are called first-party cookies. Cookies set by other organisations, for example an analytics provider, are called third-party cookies.
2. How we use cookies
We group the cookies that may be used on the Site into four categories.
- Strictly necessary — required for the Site to work, for example to keep it secure and to load pages correctly. These cannot be switched off.
- Preferences — remember choices you make, such as your language, so the Site works the way you expect.
- Analytics — help us understand how visitors use the Site, which pages are most useful and where we can improve. The information is collected in aggregate.
- Marketing — help us measure the effectiveness of our campaigns and show relevant content on other platforms.
Analytics and marketing cookies are optional. Where we use them, we ask for your consent first, and you can change your choice at any time.
3. Third-party services
Some parts of the Site rely on services provided by other organisations:
- Fonts — the Site loads typefaces from Google Fonts. When your browser requests these files, Google receives your IP address as part of the request.
- Social media links — links to our LinkedIn, Facebook, X, Instagram, TikTok and Threads pages take you to those platforms, which apply their own cookie and privacy policies.
- Email and scheduling — if you contact us by email or through a scheduling tool, those services process your information under their own terms.
We do not control cookies set by third parties. Please review their policies for details.
4. How long cookies last
Session cookies are deleted when you close your browser. Persistent cookies remain on your device for a set period or until you delete them. We keep the duration of any cookie to what is reasonably necessary for its purpose.
5. Managing cookies
You can manage cookies in several ways:
- Consent choices — where the Site asks for your consent, you can accept or decline optional cookies and change your decision later.
- Browser settings — most browsers let you block or delete cookies. The help pages of your browser explain how.
- Opt-out tools — some analytics and advertising providers offer their own opt-out options.
Blocking strictly necessary cookies may affect how parts of the Site work.
6. Changes to this policy
We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time, for example when we add or change the services we use. The date at the top of this page shows when it was last updated.
