Last Updated: March 1, 2026
This Cookie Policy ("Policy") explains how Batuhan Yılmaz (operating as Ovina), ("Ovina", "we", "us", or "our") uses cookies and similar technologies on https://app.ovina.ai (the "Site") and within the Ovina service (the "Service").
This Policy should be read together with our Privacy Policy: https://app.ovina.ai/privacy-policy.
1. What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. We also use similar technologies such as pixels, SDKs, and local storage (together, “cookies” in this Policy).
Cookies may be:
- Session cookies (deleted when you close your browser), or
- Persistent cookies (remain until they expire or you delete them).
2. Why We Use Cookies
We use cookies to:
- keep you signed in and maintain sessions,
- protect the Service (security and fraud prevention),
- remember your preferences,
- understand how the Site/Service is used and improve performance,
- measure marketing effectiveness (only where permitted and where required, with your consent).
3. Types of Cookies We Use
3.1 Strictly Necessary Cookies (Essential)
These cookies are required for the Site/Service to function and cannot be switched off in our systems. They are usually set in response to actions you take, such as logging in or setting privacy preferences.
Examples of what they do:
- authentication and session management,
- load balancing,
- security protections (e.g., CSRF prevention),
- cookie-consent storage.
Legal basis (where applicable): legitimate interests / performance of a contract.
3.2 Preferences Cookies
These cookies allow the Site/Service to remember choices you make.
Examples:
- language preference,
- UI preferences.
3.3 Analytics / Performance Cookies
These cookies help us understand usage and improve the Service.
Examples:
- pages visited, feature interactions,
- error logs and performance metrics.
Note: Where required by applicable law (e.g., EU/UK), we will ask for your consent before setting non-essential analytics cookies.
3.4 Marketing Cookies (Optional)
Marketing cookies may be used to measure marketing campaign effectiveness and/or show relevant offers.
Note: We only use marketing cookies where permitted by law and, where required, with your consent.
4. Third-Party Cookies
Some cookies may be set by third parties we use for hosting, analytics, or security. These third parties may process data according to their own privacy policies.
Typical examples (if enabled):
- analytics providers,
- error monitoring/performance tools,
- fraud prevention and security services.
Optional but recommended: maintain a “Subprocessors” or “Vendors” list in your Privacy Policy or a separate page.
5. Cookie Duration (How Long Cookies Last)
- Session cookies: expire when you close your browser.
- Persistent cookies: remain until they expire or you delete them.
The exact duration depends on the cookie purpose and configuration.
6. Managing Cookies
6.1 Cookie Preferences (Consent Banner)
Where required by law, we provide a cookie consent banner and allow you to manage non-essential cookies.
You can change your preferences at any time via:
- [Cookie Settings Link or UI Path] (recommended), or
- your browser settings (see below).
6.2 Browser Controls
Most browsers let you:
- view and delete cookies,
- block cookies,
- receive alerts before cookies are placed.
Blocking some cookies may impact the Site/Service functionality (especially essential cookies).
6.3 Do Not Track
Some browsers offer a “Do Not Track” (DNT) signal. There is no universal standard for interpreting DNT signals, so we do not currently respond to DNT.
7. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Policy from time to time. The “Last Updated” date will reflect the most recent version. Material changes may be communicated via the Site/Service.
