Cookie Policy
Effective Date: 6 September 2026 Last Updated: 6 September 2026
This Cookie Policy explains how Kay Vault uses cookies and similar technologies (like local storage) on our website and applications, and the choices you have. It's part of our Privacy Policy.
- What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website or use an app. Similar technologies include local storage, session storage, and tokens used to keep you logged in. We use these broadly to mean any small piece of data stored on your device to make the Platform work or to understand how it's used.
- Categories of Cookies We Use
2.1 Strictly Necessary Required for the Platform to function. These can't be turned off, because doing so would break core features.
| Purpose | Example |
|---|---|
| Keeping you signed in | Authentication token / session cookie, refresh token |
| Security | CSRF protection, fraud prevention |
| Load balancing / infrastructure routing | Session affinity cookie |
2.2 Functional Remember your preferences to improve your experience. Disabling these means some conveniences won't work, but the Platform will still function.
| Purpose | Example |
|---|---|
| Remembering display/layout preferences | Feed view settings |
| Remembering language/region | Locale preference |
2.3 Analytics and Performance Help us understand how the Platform is used so we can improve it — what pages get visited, how the feed performs, where errors occur.
| Purpose | Example |
|---|---|
| Usage analytics | Page/feature interaction tracking |
| Performance monitoring | Error and load-time tracking |
3. Why We Use Cookies
- To keep you securely logged into your account and Hub;
- To protect the Platform against fraud and abuse;
- To remember your settings and preferences;
- To understand how people use Kay Vault so we can fix issues and improve features;
- To measure the performance of the feed round and slot system.
We do not use cookies to sell your data to third parties.
- Third-Party Cookies
Some cookies may be set by service providers who help us run the Platform (see our Privacy Policy for the full list of providers, including Paystack for payments). When you're redirected to or interact with a third-party service (for example, completing a payment via Paystack), that provider may set its own cookies governed by its own policy.
- Your Choices
- Browser settings: Most browsers let you block or delete cookies, or notify you when a cookie is set. Blocking strictly necessary cookies will likely prevent you from logging in or using core features.
- Cookie banner/preferences: [If Kay Vault implements a cookie consent banner, describe how users can manage preferences here, e.g., "You can update your cookie preferences at any time via the 'Cookie Settings' link in the footer."]
- Mobile app: [Describe any equivalent controls in the mobile app, e.g., device-level tracking permissions.]
6. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Cookie Policy as our use of cookies changes. Material changes will be communicated via an in-app notice or the Platform's footer. Continued use of the Platform after changes take effect constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.
