1. Introduction
This Cookie Policy explains what cookies are, how Rinsedynam ("we," "us," or "our") uses them on our website rinsedynam.world, and how you can manage your cookie preferences. This policy should be read alongside our Privacy Policy, which provides additional information about how we process personal data.
When you first visit our website, a cookie consent banner allows you to accept all cookies, reject non-essential cookies, or customize your preferences through our Cookie Settings panel. Your choices are stored locally and respected on subsequent visits.
2. What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files placed on your device (computer, tablet, or smartphone) when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites function efficiently, remember user preferences, and provide information to website owners about how their site is used.
Cookies may be set by the website you are visiting ("first-party cookies") or by third-party services embedded on the website ("third-party cookies"). They may persist for a single browsing session ("session cookies") or remain on your device for a defined period ("persistent cookies").
Similar technologies include local storage, session storage, and pixel tags. Where this policy refers to "cookies," it includes these comparable technologies unless otherwise stated.
3. Cookie Categories We Use
3.1 Strictly Necessary Cookies
These cookies are essential for the website to function and cannot be disabled through our Cookie Settings. They do not require consent under GDPR because they are necessary to provide a service you have explicitly requested. Examples include:
- Consent Storage: Remembers your cookie preference choices so the consent banner does not reappear on every visit.
- Security Cookies: Help detect malicious activity and protect against unauthorized access attempts.
- Session Management: Maintain your session state as you navigate between pages.
Retention: Session cookies expire when you close your browser. Consent preference cookies are retained for 12 months.
3.2 Analytics Cookies
Analytics cookies help us understand how visitors interact with our website by collecting aggregated, anonymized usage data. These cookies are only activated when you click "Accept All" or enable Analytics in Cookie Settings. They allow us to:
- Count visitors and identify traffic sources.
- Measure page load times and identify performance issues.
- Understand which content sections receive the most engagement.
- Improve website structure and navigation based on usage patterns.
Retention: Analytics cookies typically expire after 14 to 26 months. Individual user identifiers are anonymized after 14 months.
3.3 Marketing Cookies
Marketing cookies track your browsing activity to deliver relevant advertisements and measure campaign effectiveness. These cookies are only activated when you click "Accept All" or enable Marketing in Cookie Settings. They may:
- Record pages visited and links clicked to build interest profiles.
- Enable retargeting advertisements on third-party platforms.
- Measure conversion rates from advertising campaigns.
- Limit the number of times you see a particular advertisement.
Retention: Marketing cookies typically expire after 90 days to 24 months depending on the specific cookie and third-party provider.

5.3 Browser Settings
Most web browsers allow you to control cookies through their settings. You can typically block all cookies, block third-party cookies only, or delete cookies when you close your browser. Consult your browser's help documentation for specific instructions:
- Google Chrome: Settings > Privacy and Security > Cookies
- Mozilla Firefox: Settings > Privacy & Security > Cookies and Site Data
- Apple Safari: Preferences > Privacy > Cookies
- Microsoft Edge: Settings > Cookies and Site Permissions
Please note that blocking all cookies may affect website functionality and your user experience.
5.4 Withdrawing Consent
You may withdraw cookie consent at any time by clearing your browser's local storage for our domain or contacting us at assist@rinsedynam.world to request a consent reset. Withdrawal does not affect the lawfulness of processing based on consent before withdrawal.
6. Third-Party Services
When you consent to analytics or marketing cookies, data may be processed by third-party service providers including Google LLC. These providers have their own privacy policies governing how they handle data:
- Google Privacy Policy: https://policies.google.com/privacy
- Google Analytics Opt-Out: https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout
We select third-party providers that offer appropriate data protection safeguards and enter into data processing agreements where required by law.
7. Legal Basis
Under the GDPR, strictly necessary cookies are processed based on our legitimate interest in providing a functional and secure website (Article 6(1)(f)). Analytics and marketing cookies are processed based on your explicit consent (Article 6(1)(a)), which you provide through our cookie consent mechanism.
8. Updates to This Cookie Policy
We may update this Cookie Policy to reflect changes in the cookies we use, applicable regulations, or our business practices. The effective date at the top of this page indicates when the policy was last revised. Material changes will be communicated through an updated consent banner or prominent website notice.
