Cookie Policy

1. What Cookies Are

Cookies are small text files stored on your browser or device when you visit a website. Similar technologies may include local storage, pixels, tags, scripts, device identifiers, and analytics events.

Cookies can be set by Pilotestate directly or by trusted third-party providers that help us run, secure, measure, or improve the website and platform.

2. How We Use Cookies

We may use cookies to keep the website working, remember basic preferences, protect sessions, prevent abuse, understand website performance, measure marketing or product interest, and improve user experience.

We do not use cookies to intentionally collect more personal data than we need for the stated purpose.

3. Types of Cookies We May Use

• Strictly necessary cookies: required for core website or platform features such as page navigation, account sessions, security, form protection, and load handling.
• Preference cookies: remember choices such as display settings or saved preferences where available.
• Performance and analytics cookies: help us understand traffic, page usage, errors, and visitor journeys. Google Analytics may be used if a measurement ID is configured.
• Security cookies: help detect suspicious behavior, protect accounts, and reduce automated spam or abuse.
• Communication or marketing cookies: may help measure campaign performance or form interest if enabled.

4. Google Analytics

Pilotestate may include Google Analytics when the site is configured with a Google Analytics measurement ID. Google Analytics helps us understand aggregate website activity, such as pages viewed, visit duration, referring pages, and device information.

Where required by applicable law or platform configuration, non-essential analytics cookies should be managed through an appropriate consent or preference mechanism.

5. Managing Cookies

You can control cookies through your browser settings. Most browsers allow you to block, delete, or limit cookies. If you block strictly necessary cookies, some parts of the website or platform may not work correctly.

If Pilotestate adds a cookie preference banner or settings center, you may also use it to manage non-essential cookies where available.

6. Third-Party Cookies

Third-party providers may set cookies or similar technologies when they provide services such as analytics, payment processing, embedded media, fraud prevention, or support tools. Their use of cookies may be governed by their own policies.

We aim to use trusted providers and limit third-party technologies to purposes that support the service, security, support, analytics, or lawful business operations.

7. Updates to This Policy

We may update this Cookie Policy when our website, platform, providers, or legal requirements change. The updated date on this page shows when the latest version took effect.
