1. Introduction

PassUAS ("we," "our," or "us") uses cookies and similar technologies on our website and services (collectively, the "Services"). This Cookie Policy explains how we use cookies, what types of cookies we use, and how you can control them.

2. What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files that are placed on your device when you visit a website. Cookies are widely used by website owners 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, PassUAS) 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).

3. Types of Cookies We Use

We use different types of cookies for various reasons:

3.1 Essential Cookies

These cookies are necessary for the Services to function properly and cannot be switched off in our systems. They are usually only set in response to actions made by you which amount to a request for services, such as setting your privacy preferences, logging in, or filling in forms.

3.2 Performance and Analytics Cookies

These cookies allow us to count visits and traffic sources so we can measure and improve the performance of our Services. They help us to know which pages are the most and least popular and see how visitors move around the site.

3.3 Functionality Cookies

These cookies enable the Services to provide enhanced functionality and personalization. They may be set by us or by third-party providers whose services we have added to our pages.
