Cookies Policy

What Are Cookies

Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. They help websites remember information about your visit, making your next visit easier and the site more useful to you.

Most websites use cookies to improve user experience. Cookies allow sites to recognize devices, remember preferences, and provide personalized content. They play an important role in how modern websites function.

How We Use Cookies

Mindora Journey uses cookies to enhance your browsing experience and understand how visitors interact with our website. We use cookies responsibly and only collect information necessary for legitimate purposes.

Types of Cookies We Use

Essential Cookies

These cookies are necessary for our website to function properly. They enable basic features such as navigation and access to secure areas. Our website cannot function properly without these cookies, and they cannot be disabled.

Essential cookies we use include:

• Session management cookies that remember your choices as you navigate between pages
• Cookie consent cookies that remember your cookie preferences
• Security cookies that authenticate users and prevent fraudulent use

These cookies do not store personally identifiable information and expire when you close your browser or after a short period.

Analytics Cookies

Analytics cookies help us understand how visitors use our website by collecting information about which pages are visited, how long visitors stay, and where visitors come from. This information is aggregated and anonymous.

We use this data to:

• Improve website navigation and structure
• Identify popular content and services
• Understand user behavior patterns
• Detect and resolve technical issues

You can opt out of analytics cookies through our cookie preferences without affecting your ability to use the website.

Functionality Cookies

These cookies enable enhanced functionality and personalization, such as remembering your preferences and choices. They may be set by us or by third-party providers whose services we use on our pages.

Functionality cookies remember:

• Language preferences
• Text size and display preferences
• Previous interactions with site features

If you disable these cookies, some features may not function as intended, but the website will remain accessible.

First-Party and Third-Party Cookies

We use both first-party and third-party cookies on our website:

First-Party Cookies

These are cookies set directly by Mindora Journey. We have full control over these cookies and use them only for purposes described in this policy.

Third-party cookies on our site may come from:

• Analytics services that help us understand website usage
• Content delivery networks that improve site performance

Cookie Duration

Cookies can be either session cookies or persistent cookies:

Session Cookies

These temporary cookies expire when you close your browser. They enable websites to link your actions during a browsing session, making navigation smoother and more efficient.

Persistent Cookies

These cookies remain on your device for a set period or until you delete them. They remember your preferences for future visits, eliminating the need to re-enter information or reset preferences each time you visit.

Our persistent cookies typically expire after:

• Cookie consent preferences: 12 months
