Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you visit a website.

Cookies help websites work properly, remember preferences, improve performance, understand usage, and provide relevant functionality.

Similar technologies may include pixels, local storage, session storage, tags, SDKs, and device identifiers.

We may use cookies and similar technologies to:

• operate the website;
• keep the website secure;
• remember your preferences;
• store cookie consent choices;
• improve performance;
• understand how visitors use the website;
• detect errors;
• prevent abuse or fraud;

3.1 Strictly Necessary Cookies

These cookies are required for the website to function.

They may be used for:

• page navigation;
• website security;
• fraud prevention;
• session management;
• cookie consent settings;
• basic website functionality.

On winkwallet.app this category currently includes the cookie consent record stored locally on your device (key: wink-cookie-consent), which lets us remember your choice so we don’t prompt you on every visit.

These cookies cannot usually be disabled through our website because the website may not work properly without them.

3.2 Performance and Analytics Cookies

These cookies help us understand how visitors use the website.

They may collect information such as:

• pages visited;
• time spent on pages;
• clicks;
• device type;
• browser type;
• approximate location;
• errors and performance issues.

We currently use Vercel Web Analytics, a privacy-friendly service that does not set advertising cookies and does not use your IP address to identify you. It collects aggregated, anonymised data such as pages viewed, referring source, approximate country (derived from a hashed IP), device type, browser family, and Core Web Vitals.

We use this information to improve the website and user experience.

Where required by law, analytics cookies are used only with your consent.

3.3 Functional Cookies

These cookies allow the website to remember choices you make, such as preferences, language, region, or display settings.

On winkwallet.app this includes the language you select, which we keep in a first-party cookie (key: wink_locale) so the website loads in your preferred language on subsequent visits.

3.4 Marketing Cookies

Marketing cookies may be used to measure campaigns or show more relevant content.

We currently do not use third-party advertising or cross-site tracking cookies on winkwallet.app. If we introduce them in the future, they will be loaded only with your consent where required by law, and this Cookie Policy will be updated accordingly.

Some cookies may be placed by third-party providers that help us operate, secure, analyze, or improve the website.

These providers may include hosting providers, analytics providers, security providers, customer support tools, or marketing tools.

The third-party providers currently in use on winkwallet.app are:

• Vercel Inc. — hosting, edge delivery, and Vercel Web Analytics. See their Privacy Policy.
• Google Fonts — delivers the typefaces used on the website. We self-host where possible to minimise external calls.

Third-party providers process information according to their own privacy policies.

Where required, we will ask for your consent before placing optional cookies, such as analytics or marketing cookies.

You can accept, decline, or manage optional cookies through the cookie banner or cookie settings where available.

Strictly necessary cookies do not require consent because they are required for the website to function.

You can control or delete cookies through your browser settings.

Most browsers allow you to:

• view cookies;
• delete cookies;
• block cookies;
• block third-party cookies;

We may use local storage or similar technologies to remember preferences, store cookie consent choices, improve performance, or support website functionality.

On winkwallet.app, local storage is used to keep your cookie consent choice and your language preference on your device. No identifier is sent to our servers as a result of storing these values.

You can usually clear local storage through your browser settings.
