1. Introduction
This Cookie Policy explains how Northfast Limited, operating the Paswad platform, uses cookies and similar technologies on our websites and dashboards. It should be read together with our Privacy Policy, which describes how we handle personal data more generally. By using our websites, you agree to the use of strictly necessary cookies; optional cookies are used only with your consent where required.
3. Strictly necessary cookies
These cookies are essential to operate the Service and cannot be switched off without breaking core functionality. They include a session cookie that keeps you signed in to your Paswad dashboard during a visit and a CSRF token that protects forms and authenticated requests from cross-site forgery. Because they are strictly necessary, they do not require consent. We do not use them for analytics or advertising.
4. Preferences cookies
An optional preferences cookie remembers choices such as your language and theme so the interface behaves the way you expect on your next visit. These cookies do not track you across other sites and are used only to improve your experience.
5. Analytics cookies
We use privacy-preserving, aggregated analytics to understand how the product is used and to improve it, for example by measuring which pages are visited and where errors occur. We aim to minimise the data involved and do not use analytics to build advertising profiles. Where required by law, analytics are set only after you consent, and you can opt out at any time in cookie settings.
6. No advertising or cross-site tracking
We do not use advertising cookies, and we do not engage in cross-site or cross-context behavioural tracking. We do not sell personal data. Paswad’s business is identity infrastructure, not advertising, so there are no third-party ad networks embedded in our products.
7. Third-party cookies
A limited number of service providers may set cookies strictly to deliver functions on our behalf — for example, our analytics provider, or infrastructure used to keep the Service secure and available. These providers act under contract and on our instructions. We do not permit them to use cookies set through our sites for their own independent advertising purposes.
8. Managing your choices
You can manage non-essential cookies through our cookie settings or banner, where available, and at any time through your browser settings, which let you block or delete cookies. Note that blocking strictly necessary cookies may prevent you from signing in or using parts of the dashboard. Most browsers also offer a “Do Not Track” signal; we honour applicable opt-out preference signals where required by law.
9. Changes to this policy
We may update this Cookie Policy as our use of cookies evolves. If we make material changes, we will update the “Last updated” date above and, where appropriate, provide additional notice. Please check this page periodically.
