1. Introduction
This Cookies Policy explains how Postello.io ("we," "our," or "us") uses cookies and similar technologies to recognize you when you visit our website, services, and applications (collectively, the "Service"). It explains what these technologies are and why we use them, as well as your rights to control our use of them.
2. What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small data files that are placed on your computer or mobile device when you visit a website. Cookies are widely used by website owners to make their websites work, or work more efficiently, as well as to provide reporting information.
Cookies set by the website owner (in this case, Postello.io) are called "first-party cookies." Cookies set by parties other than the website owner are called "third-party cookies." Third-party cookies enable third-party features or functionality to be provided on or through the website (e.g., advertising, interactive content, and analytics).
3. Why Do We Use Cookies?
We use first and third-party cookies for several reasons. Some cookies are required for technical reasons in order for our Service to operate, and we refer to these as "essential" or "strictly necessary" cookies. Other cookies also enable us to track and target the interests of our users to enhance the experience on our Service. Third parties serve cookies through our websites for analytics and other purposes.
4. Types of Cookies We Use
4.1 Essential Cookies
These cookies are strictly necessary to provide you with services available through our Service and to use some of its features, such as access to secure areas. Because these cookies are strictly necessary to deliver the Service, you cannot refuse them without impacting how our Service functions.

5. How to Control Cookies

You can also set or amend your web browser controls to accept or refuse cookies. If you choose to reject cookies, you may still use our Service, but your access to some functionality and areas of our Service may be restricted. As the means by which you can refuse cookies through your web browser controls vary from browser to browser, you should visit your browser's help menu for more information.
6. Local Storage
In addition to cookies, we use local storage techniques such as localStorage to store user preferences and API keys. This data is stored directly in your browser and is not sent to our servers with each request. Local storage helps us improve performance and enhance user experience.

Some cookies are placed by third parties on our website. These third parties may include:
- Analytics providers: We use analytics services to help us understand how users interact with the Service.
- Performance monitoring: We use performance monitoring tools to track the performance of our Service and to detect errors.
We have no access to or control over these cookies and they are not covered by this Cookies Policy. Please contact the relevant third parties for more information about their cookies.
8. Cookie Lifespan
The lifespan of a cookie depends on its purpose:
- Session Cookies: These cookies are temporary and are deleted when you close your browser.
- Persistent Cookies: These cookies remain on your device for a fixed period (usually 1 day to 2 years) or until you delete them manually.
