Cookie Policy
Effective Date: 20 July 2026 · Version 2026-07-20
Provisional draft — pending final review by counsel
This document is a working draft prepared by Animedix. It has not been reviewed or approved by outside legal counsel. It is provided as a transparent placeholder while our formal legal framework is finalised and is not a substitute for legal advice.
This Cookie Policy explains how Animedix by SIVRA Inc. ("Animedix") uses cookies and similar technologies. It supplements our Privacy Policy.
What is a cookie?
A cookie is a small text file placed on your device when you visit a website. Cookies help sites remember you and your preferences. "Similar technologies" include local storage and session storage, which serve the same purpose without being classified as cookies.
Your choices
We ask for your permission before setting anything that is not strictly necessary. Nothing in the Functional, Analytics, Advertising, or Video embeds categories is enabled until you opt in, and you can change or withdraw your choices at any time using the Cookie Preferences link in the footer of every page.
If your browser sends a Global Privacy Control signal, we treat it as an opt-out request and apply it automatically without asking you first.
What we use
The platform sets strictly necessary cookies and local storage by default. Everything else is opt-in, including advertising. We do not sell or share personal information.
| Category | Default | What it does |
|---|---|---|
| Strictly necessary | Always on | Signs you in, protects against cross-site request forgery, and stores your consent choice. Cannot be disabled. |
| Functional | Off until you allow it | Remembers dismissed notices, library filters, and sort preferences. |
| Analytics | Off until you allow it | Google Analytics, with IP anonymisation. Measures which pages and videos are used. Not used for advertising. |
| Advertising | Off until you allow it | Google Ads conversion tracking. Tells us whether someone who arrived from one of our ads went on to create an account. It can link this visit to an earlier ad click. |
| Video embeds | Off until you allow it | Allows YouTube and Vimeo players to load directly, which lets those providers set their own cookies. |
Embedded video
Some pages embed video hosted by YouTube or Vimeo. Those providers can set their own cookies and receive your IP address as soon as a player loads, so we do not load one until you press play. If you have not allowed the Video embeds category, we load the player from YouTube's no-cookie domain (youtube-nocookie.com) or pass Vimeo's do-not-track flag. Video still plays either way — declining reduces tracking, not functionality.
| Purpose | Type | Set by | Duration |
|---|---|---|---|
| Keep you logged in | HTTP-only cookie / local storage token | Animedix | Session or up to 30 days |
| Prevent cross-site request forgery | Cookie | Animedix | Session |
| Remember dismissed banners and modals (e.g. the Investor Intelligence first-visit notice) | Local storage | Animedix | Until you clear browser storage |
| Remember library filters and sort preferences | Local storage / URL params | Animedix | Until you change them |
| Diagnostic session identifier for error logs | Cookie | Animedix | Session |
What we do not use
- Retargeting or audience-building for advertising
- Social-media tracking widgets
- Selling or sharing personal information with data brokers
The third-party technologies present are the embedded video players described above, Google Analytics, and Google Ads conversion tracking. Each loads only with your permission for its own category, and none runs if you decline. Google Analytics runs with IP anonymisation and advertising features disabled; it is not used to build advertising audiences.
Google Ads conversion tracking measures one thing: whether a visit that began with one of our ads ended in a completed sign-up. We use it to judge whether our advertising is worth the spend. It is not used to profile you, to follow you across other sites, or to serve you ads elsewhere. Declining it costs you nothing — we still count sign-ups for our own reporting, we simply cannot attribute them to an ad.
Managing cookies
The Cookie Preferences link in the footer opens the controls for every non-essential category, including withdrawing a permission you previously gave. Withdrawing consent also clears the stored values for that category.
Most browsers additionally let you refuse or delete cookies via their own settings. Because strictly necessary cookies are what keep you signed in, blocking those may prevent you from logging in or using the platform normally.
