01

What cookies are

Cookies are small text files that websites save on your device when you visit them. They allow the site to recognise you, remember your preferences and collect information about how it is used.

In addition to traditional cookies, Erabox also uses mobile analytics SDKs (Firebase Analytics), which collect similar data within the iOS and Android app. In this policy, “cookies” refers to all of these equivalent technologies.

Cookies can be session cookies (deleted when you close your browser) or persistent cookies (kept for a set period). They can be set directly by Erabox (“first-party cookies”) or by our providers (“third-party cookies”).
