What cookies are
Cookies are small text files that a website asks your browser to store on your device.
Upon your subsequent visit to the website, your browser transmits these files back to the site, enabling it to identify your session, retain your settings, or analyze page performance. Equivalent tools - including local storage, session storage, and minimal tracking pixels - function analogously, and all are governed by this policy under the collective designation "cookies".
A cookie generally contains the name of the site that set it, a value (often a random identifier) and an expiry date. Cookies cannot read other files on your device and are not programs.
Why we use cookies
InterSwift uses cookies to keep the website secure and functional, to remember the choices you make, to understand which pages are useful, and - where you have agreed - to measure the performance of our marketing. Strictly necessary cookies are set as soon as you open the site because the site cannot work without them. All other categories are only activated after you give consent, and you may withdraw that consent at any time.
The categories we use
Every cookie on this site belongs to one of the four groups below.
Strictly necessary cookies
These keep the site usable: they maintain your session while you move between pages, balance traffic across servers, protect forms against automated abuse and remember the cookie choices you have already made. They do not build a profile of you and cannot be switched off through our banner, because without them core functions such as signing in would fail.
Preference (functionality) cookies
These remember the settings you choose - for example the interface language, a region, a display preference or whether you have dismissed an informational notice. They make the site more convenient but are not essential; if you refuse them, the site still works and simply asks for your preferences again on each visit.
Analytics (performance) cookies
These help us count visits, see which pages are read, how long people stay and where errors occur. The reporting is aggregated: it tells us that a page is popular or slow, not who you are. We use the results to fix problems and to improve the structure of the site.
Marketing (advertising) cookies
These cookies document your entry point from a specific promotional source or ad, prevent duplicate messaging, and track if a campaign resulted in a new account registration. Third-party advertising networks may access these cookies across their websites. They are exclusively deployed upon receiving your affirmative permission.
| Category | Purpose | Consent needed | Typical lifetime |
|---|---|---|---|
| Strictly necessary | Session management, safety protocols, server distribution, preference documentation | No - required for the site to work | Session up to about 12 months |
| Preference | Language, region and display choices | Yes | Days up to about 12 months |
| Analytics | Aggregated traffic and page-performance statistics | Yes | Days up to about 24 months |
| Marketing | Promotional source tracking and ad performance analytics | Yes | Days up to about 24 months |
How to refuse or delete cookies
You are always free to change your mind.
Through our banner
Use the cookie banner or the cookie settings link on the site to accept or reject the preference, analytics and marketing categories. Rejecting a category stops new cookies of that type from being written; cookies already stored can be cleared through your browser.
Through your browser
All major browsers allow you to view stored cookies, delete them individually or entirely, block cookies from specific sites, block all third-party cookies, or delete everything automatically when the browser closes. You will normally find these controls under a menu named “Settings”, then “Privacy”, “Privacy and security”, “Site permissions” or “Cookies and site data”. Mobile browsers offer the same options in their settings screens, and mobile operating systems provide separate controls for advertising identifiers.
Private browsing
Opening the site in a private or incognito window means most cookies are discarded when you close that window, though this does not prevent them from being set during your visit.
What happens if you block cookies
Blocking strictly necessary cookies will prevent parts of the site from working: you may be unable to stay signed in, submit a form or complete a secure step. Blocking preference cookies means settings such as language are not remembered. Blocking analytics or marketing cookies has no effect on functionality - you will simply not be counted in our statistics and campaign measurement.
Third-party cookies
Certain cookies are installed by third-party service providers operating under our direction, such as vendors specializing in website analytics, content distribution, security threat detection or ad performance tracking. These vendors may access their own cookies across other websites utilizing their same offerings. We do not govern the substance of cookies deployed by third parties; their handling of collected information follows their separate privacy and cookie policies.
When a third-party cookie is not essential for basic functionality, it will only be deployed upon your affirmative agreement via the cookie banner. To obtain a current list of active providers, reach out to our support team and we will supply the most recent information.
How long cookies live
Session cookies remain active solely during the time your browser session is in use and are removed once you terminate the session. Persistent cookies remain until their expiry date or until you delete them; on this site their lifetimes range from a few days to roughly two years, depending on the purpose. The exact expiry of an individual cookie can always be inspected in your browser’s storage settings.
We maintain a log of your consent preferences for a set duration to prevent the banner from appearing with each new visit; once this duration expires, we will request your consent anew.
Updates and how to contact us
We examine this policy on an ongoing basis and revise it in response to modifications in the cookies deployed, the underlying technologies, or relevant legislation. This page always displays the latest version; substantial revisions will be communicated via site notices or the cookie banner, and your continued engagement following the revision indicates your acceptance of the updated terms.
If you have a question about this policy, want details of a specific cookie or wish to exercise a data-protection right, please write to our support team through the contact page. Additional materials are accessible in the footer section of each page, including our complete Privacy Policy.
