This Cookies Policy explains how Zofivu ("we", "us", "our") uses cookies on this website. It should be read together with our privacy information. We have written it to meet the requirements of the Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulations 2003 (PECR) and the UK General Data Protection Regulation (UK GDPR), as supplemented by the Data Protection Act 2018.
Zofivu provides a mobile application that helps families manage teenagers' pocket money. This website is operated by Zofivu, whose registered contact details are:
For the purposes of the UK GDPR, Zofivu is the controller of any personal data processed through the use of cookies on this website.
A cookie is a small text file that a website places on your device (computer, tablet or phone) when you visit it. Cookies allow a website to remember information about your visit, such as your preferences. Similar technologies, such as pixels and local storage, are treated in the same way under PECR, and this policy applies to them too.
We keep our use of cookies deliberately minimal. This website sets only one cookie of its own:
| Cookie name | Purpose | Duration | Type |
|---|---|---|---|
cookie_pref |
Stores the choice you make in our cookie banner, so that we remember whether you have accepted or declined optional cookies and do not ask you again on every page. | One year | First-party, essential |
We do not use analytics cookies on this website. We do not set session cookies, security-token cookies or any other cookies beyond cookie_pref. If this ever changes, we will update this policy and ask for your consent before setting any new non-essential cookie.
Essential cookies are those that are strictly necessary to provide a service you have asked for, or to remember a choice you have made. Under PECR, these do not require your prior consent. The cookie_pref cookie falls into this category, because without it we could not remember your consent decision.
Optional cookies are not strictly necessary for the website to work. Under PECR and the UK GDPR, we may only set them if you have given your consent first, and that consent must be freely given, specific, informed and unambiguous. Optional cookies on this website are limited to advertising measurement, described in section 5. They are switched off by default and are not activated until you opt in.
Advertising measurement runs on this website only after you have given consent, and only on our confirmation page. Its sole purpose is to help us understand whether our advertising has led people to reach that page. Nothing runs on any other page for this purpose.
Where advertising measurement is active, it may involve technology supplied by third parties, which means those third parties may be able to place or read cookies on your device. We handle this as follows:
Third parties act under their own privacy terms, and we encourage you to read them where relevant. You can also manage third-party advertising cookies through your browser settings, as explained below.
We rely on the following legal grounds:
cookie_pref): exempt from the consent requirement under PECR because it is strictly necessary to provide the cookie-preference function you have requested. To the extent any personal data is involved, our legitimate interests under Article 6(1)(f) of the UK GDPR apply.You have the right to change your mind at any time, and withdrawing consent should be as easy as giving it. You can do this in any of the following ways:
cookie_pref cookie.cookie_pref cookie will cause the banner to appear again on your next visit, so you can make a fresh choice.Withdrawing consent does not affect the lawfulness of any processing carried out before the withdrawal. Blocking essential cookies in your browser may mean we cannot remember your preferences between visits.
Under the UK GDPR you have rights over your personal data, including the rights of access, rectification, erasure, restriction of processing, data portability and objection, as well as the right to withdraw consent at any time. To exercise any of these rights, contact us at [email protected]. We aim to respond within one month.
If you are unhappy with how we use cookies or handle your personal data, please contact us first so that we can try to resolve the matter. You also have the right to lodge a complaint with the Information Commissioner's Office (ICO), the UK's supervisory authority for data protection, at ico.org.uk.
We may update this Cookies Policy from time to time, for example if we change the cookies we use or if the law changes. The current version will always be available on this page. Where a change affects your consent, we will ask for it again.
