Cookies Policy

Introduction

We, Artery Ventures, LLP ("Company", "we", "us", "our") may use cookies or similar technologies to understand how visitors use our website https://useabstractions.com and our Abstractions application (together, the "Platform"). We are committed to protecting the privacy and security of your personal information. We advise you to carefully read this cookie policy ("Policy"), together with the Company's Privacy Policy at useabstractions.com/privacy so that you are aware of the cookies and technologies used as well as how we treat your personal information.

What are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files which are placed on your device when you visit a website. They can allow a site to recognize your device, store preferences, analyze trends, operate and improve services, and provide a better experience. Similar technologies include local storage and other browser storage the Platform or scripts may use for the same purposes.

Types of Cookies Used

By Duration

Permanent (persistent) cookies — Remain on your device for a pre-defined period or until you delete them. They can help recognize returning visitors and keep you signed in where appropriate.

Session cookies — Last only for the browsing session and are typically erased when you close the browser.

By Domain

First-party cookies: These cookies are set by the Platform you are visiting (for example useabstractions.com) and share the same domain.

Third-party cookies: These cookies are placed by a domain other than the Platform you are visiting. Where we use analytics, we aim to do so in a manner that limits unnecessary third-party tracking.

How we use cookies on the Platform

We aim to keep tracking minimal. The Platform may use:

Essential / functional

Cookies or similar storage that are necessary for the Platform to function securely and correctly (for example authentication, security, load balancing, or basic preferences). These are typically first-party and are not used for advertising.

Website analytics (PostHog)

On the hosted product, we may use a third-party analytics service to understand how the Platform is used so we can improve content, layout, and product experience. Analytics data is handled by our analytics provider, PostHog. We may collect information about page visits and, where enabled, selected interactions with the Platform.

Analytics requests are sent through a first-party path on our origin so they are not loaded from the vendor hostname directly. We do not enable session recording in the current integration. Self-hosted deployments of Abstractions may leave analytics disabled entirely.

Analytics tools may use cookies or similar browser storage to distinguish visits in an aggregated way. Ordinary Website visitors are not identified to us as named user accounts solely through this analytics. We do not currently rely on advertising pixels as a core part of the product. If we add or replace tracking tools, we will update this Policy.

Use of information from cookies

Information from cookies and similar technologies may be used to:

• operate and secure the Platform;
• authenticate users and protect accounts;
• understand how visitors navigate the Platform;
• improve content, performance, and layout; and
• measure whether product surfaces and calls to action are useful.

We do not sell personal information collected via cookies. We do not use cookies on the Platform to personalize third-party advertising as part of the current Abstractions product experience.

Disabling Cookies

You can decide whether to accept cookies. Most browsers let you refuse or delete cookies via settings (see your browser's help documentation). Clearing site data may also remove local storage used by analytics. Disabling cookies or blocking scripts may affect Platform functionality or prevent analytics from loading. You may also use browser privacy features or extensions that limit tracking.

Changes to this Policy

Please revisit this page periodically to stay aware of any changes to this Policy, which we may update from time to time. If we modify this Policy, we will make it available through the website and indicate the date of the latest revision.
