This Cookie Policy describes the technical cookies, local storage, and session tokens used on the Kindred platform.
1. What Are Cookies and Local Storage?
Cookies are small text files placed on your device by websites you visit. Similar technologies include web storage (Local Storage and Session Storage) and tokens that allow web applications to remember your preferences and maintain authenticated sessions securely between requests.
2. Categories of Cookies We Use
We classify our storage technologies into the following categories:
Strictly Necessary (Essential)
These cookies are indispensable for operating Kindred. They enable secure login sessions, protect against Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF), and verify authentication state. The website cannot function properly without these.
Preference & Functional
These technologies remember choices you make, such as your chosen language (English or Amharic) and display theme (Dark or Light mode), ensuring a consistent personalized experience across visits.
Performance & Diagnostics
We collect aggregated, anonymized technical telemetry (such as crash rates and server response latencies) to maintain platform health, reliability, and security.
3. First-Party vs Third-Party Cookies
Kindred operates almost exclusively with first-party storage created directly by our domain. We do not use third-party behavioral advertising trackers, data brokers, or cross-site tracking cookies. Where third-party cloud infrastructure providers (e.g. Cloudflare) assist with security and DDoS protection, limited essential security cookies may be set.
4. Managing and Disabling Cookies
Most modern web browsers allow you to control and manage cookies through their settings. You can configure your browser to block cookies or alert you when cookies are being sent. Note that disabling strictly necessary cookies will prevent you from logging in or using authenticated features of Kindred.
5. Policy Updates and Contact
We may update this Cookie Policy to reflect technical or regulatory developments. Any revisions will be published with an updated effective date. If you have questions regarding our use of cookies, contact us at privacy@melcotechnology.com.
