01What Are Cookies
Cookies are small text files placed on your device by a website when you visit it. They are widely used to make websites work correctly, remember your preferences, and provide a better user experience.
Cookies do not contain personally identifiable information on their own, but they may be linked to information we hold about you in accordance with our Privacy Policy.
02How Zylmark Uses Cookies
Zylmark currently uses only essential cookies: the minimum required to operate the platform securely and correctly. We do not use advertising cookies, tracking cookies, or third-party marketing cookies.
| Cookie | Type | Purpose | Duration |
|---|---|---|---|
| session_id | Essential | Maintains your login session while you are using the platform | Session: deleted when browser closes |
| auth_token | Essential | Authenticates your account and keeps you securely logged in | 30 days |
| zylmark_cookie_notice_v1 | Essential local storage | Remembers that you have acknowledged our cookie notice | Until you clear your browser storage |
03Essential Cookies
Essential cookies are strictly necessary for the Zylmark platform to function. Without them, you would not be able to log in, maintain a session, or use core features of the service. Because they are essential to operation, these cookies do not require your consent under applicable law.
We do not use essential cookies for any purpose beyond what is necessary to operate the platform.
04Cookies We Do Not Currently Use
Zylmark does not currently use any of the following:
- Analytics cookies (e.g. Google Analytics, Mixpanel)
- Advertising or retargeting cookies (e.g. Facebook Pixel, Google Ads)
- Social media cookies
- Performance or behaviour tracking cookies (e.g. Hotjar, FullStory)
- Third-party marketing cookies of any kind
If we introduce any non-essential cookies in the future, we will update this policy, notify registered users, and obtain your consent through our cookie consent banner before placing those cookies on your device.
05Cookie Notice
When you first visit zylmark.com, a cookie notice explains that we use essential cookies and browser storage to operate the platform. Selecting “Got it” dismisses the notice and stores that acknowledgement in your browser.
The notice is informational and does not treat continued browsing as consent to optional tracking. Zylmark does not currently use advertising or analytics cookies. If that changes, we will update this policy and provide appropriate choices before non-essential cookies are used.
06Managing and Disabling Cookies
You can control and manage cookies through your browser settings. Most browsers allow you to:
- View what cookies are stored on your device
- Delete some or all cookies
- Block cookies from specific websites
- Block all third-party cookies
- Set your browser to notify you when a cookie is being placed
Please note that disabling essential cookies will prevent you from logging in and using the Zylmark platform. Core functionality depends on session and authentication cookies being active.

07Third-Party Cookies
Zylmark does not currently allow any third-party services to place cookies on your device through our platform. If this changes, we will update this policy and obtain your consent where required.
Our payment processor, Stripe, may set cookies on its own hosted pages during the payment process. These cookies are governed by Stripe’s own Cookie Policy, not this document. You can review Stripe’s policy at stripe.com/cookie-settings.
08Updates to This Policy
We may update this Cookie Policy as our use of cookies changes or as required by applicable law. When we do, we will update the effective date at the top of this page. Material changes will be communicated to registered users by email.
We encourage you to review this policy periodically to stay informed about how we use cookies.
