COOKIE POLICY
Last updated August 31, 2026
This Cookie Policy
explains how CaratScanner ("Company,"
"we," "us," and "our") uses cookies and similar
technologies to recognize you when you visit our website at
https://www.caratscanner.com
("Website"). It explains what these technologies are
and why we use them, as well as your rights to control our use of them.
In some cases we
may use cookies to collect personal information, or that becomes personal information if we combine
it with other information.
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 in order to make their websites work, or to work more efficiently, as
well as to provide reporting information.
Cookies set by the
website owner (in this case, CaratScanner ) 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). The parties that set these
third-party cookies can recognize your computer both when it visits the website in question and also
when it visits certain other websites.
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
Website 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 Online Properties. Third parties serve cookies through our
Website for advertising, analytics, and other purposes.
This is described in more detail below.
How can I control cookies?
You have the right
to decide whether to accept or reject cookies. You can exercise your cookie rights by setting your
preferences in the Cookie Preference Center. The Cookie Preference Center allows you to select which
categories of cookies you accept or reject. Essential cookies cannot be rejected as they are
strictly necessary to provide you with services.
The Cookie
Preference Center can be found in the notification banner and through the Cookie settings link on
our Website. Rejecting optional analytics or advertising storage does not disable account sign-in,
photo analysis, report access, or checkout. You may also set or amend your web browser controls to
accept or refuse cookies. Where supported and legally applicable, we also treat a Global Privacy
Control signal as a request to disable advertising-related processing.
The specific types
of first- and third-party cookies served through our Website and the purposes they perform are
described in the table below (please note that the specific cookies served may vary depending on the specific Online Properties
you visit):

What about other tracking technologies, like web beacons?
Cookies are not
the only way to recognize or track visitors to a website. We may use other, similar technologies
from time to time, like web beacons (sometimes called "tracking pixels" or "clear gifs"). These
are tiny graphics files that contain a unique identifier that enables us to recognize when
someone has visited our Website or opened an email including
them . This allows us, for example, to
monitor the traffic patterns of
users from one page within a website to another, to deliver or communicate with cookies,
to understand whether you have come to the website from an online advertisement
displayed on a third-party website, to improve site performance, and to measure the
success of email marketing campaigns. In many instances, these technologies are reliant
on cookies to function properly, and so declining cookies will impair their
functioning.
Do you serve targeted advertising?
When your consent choices permit advertising technologies, third parties
may serve cookies on your computer or mobile device to measure or personalize advertising associated
with our Website. These companies may use information about your visits to this and other
websites in order to provide relevant advertisements about goods and services that you may be interested
in. They may also employ technology that is used to measure the effectiveness of advertisements. They
can accomplish this by using cookies or web beacons to collect information about your visits to this and
other sites in order to provide relevant advertisements about goods and services of potential interest
to you. The information collected through this process does not enable us or them to identify your name,
contact details, or other details that directly identify you unless you choose to provide
these.
How often will you update this Cookie Policy?
We may
update this Cookie Policy from time to time in order to reflect, for
example, changes to the cookies we use or for other operational, legal, or regulatory reasons.
Please therefore revisit this Cookie Policy regularly to stay informed about our use of cookies
and related technologies.
The date at the
