This Cookie Policy details the practices of LeafMesh regarding the gathering, utilization, and safeguarding of cookies and comparable tracking technologies during your interactions with our online platform. Our aim is to offer complete clarity and meet all relevant privacy obligations and statutes within Australia, including the Australian Privacy Principles found in the Privacy Act 1988, alongside adhering to recognized industry best practices for digital advertising.
Within this document, we will delineate the various categories of cookies and tracking tools employed, explain their specific purposes and our data retention protocols, and outline your entitlements concerning the control and removal of these digital files. We urge you to read this policy thoroughly to gain a full understanding of our cookie management procedures during your visit.
Understanding Cookies
Cookies are small data packets stored on your computing device (such as a desktop, smartphone, or tablet) by a website you visit. They serve a crucial role in enhancing website operational efficiency, improving user experience, and delivering tailored content and advertisements. Cookies enable web platforms to recall your past activities and preferences over a period, eliminating the need for repetitive inputs on subsequent visits.
These files exist in several forms. Some are essential for a website's core functions, while others contribute to advanced features, analytical insights, promotional activities, and security protocols. This policy covers both "first-party" cookies, which are directly placed by our website, and "third-party" cookies, which may be deployed by external service providers with whom we collaborate.
