Last updated: 9 May 2026

1. Introduction

This Cookie Policy explains how Spykra Technologies UK Ltd ("we", "us", "our") uses cookies and similar technologies on the Qted website and application. By using our Services, you consent to the use of cookies as described in this policy.

2. What are cookies?

Cookies are small text files stored on your computer or mobile device by your browser. They are widely used to make websites work more efficiently and provide information to the owners of the site. Some cookies are "session cookies" (which expire when you close your browser) and others are "persistent cookies" (which remain on your device until they expire or you delete them).

3. Why we use cookies

We use cookies to enhance your experience and maintain the integrity of our platform. Specifically, we use them for:

• Authentication: Keeping you logged in as you navigate through the dashboard.
• Security: Preventing fraudulent activity and protecting your account from unauthorized access (e.g., CSRF protection).
• Preferences: Remembering settings like your preferred language (English or Polish) and UI theme (Light or Dark mode).
• Performance: Monitoring the speed and stability of our platform to provide a smooth user experience.
• Analytics: Understanding how our visitors use the website so we can improve our marketing and features.

4. Categories of cookies we use

A. Strictly Necessary Cookies

These cookies are essential for the core functionality of Qted. Without them, the Platform cannot function properly. They include:

• Session Identifiers: Randomly generated tokens used to identify your unique connection to our server.
• XSRF-TOKEN: Used to verify that form submissions are coming from our own application and not an external site.
• Stripe Fraud Prevention: Cookies set by Stripe (our payment partner) to assess the risk of a transaction and prevent credit card fraud.

B. Functional and Preference Cookies

These cookies allow us to provide a more personalized experience by remembering your choices:

• Locale settings: Used to display the app in your preferred language.
• User preferences: Used to remember your dashboard layout and theme settings.

C. Third-Party Cookies

We use third-party services that may set their own cookies on your device:

• Stripe: Essential for processing subscription payments and job deposits. For more information, see Stripe's Cookie Policy.
• Meta (WhatsApp): If you use our WhatsApp integration, Meta may set cookies to manage your messaging session and preferences. See WhatsApp's Cookie Policy.
• Google/Apple: If you use social sign-in or Google Calendar sync, these providers will set cookies to manage the authentication and data flow.
• Postmark/Twilio: Used to track the delivery and open rates of service-related emails and SMS messages.

5. Managing your cookie settings

You have the right to decide whether to accept or reject cookies. You can manage your preferences in the following ways:

• Browser Settings: You can set or amend your web browser controls to accept or refuse cookies. If you choose to reject cookies, you may still use our website though your access to some functionality and areas of our website may be restricted.
• Deleting Cookies: You can delete all cookies currently on your device by clearing your browser's history.

Please note: Disabling strictly necessary cookies will prevent you from logging into the Qted dashboard and will break the booking and payment flows for your customers.

6. Similar Technologies

We may also use Local Storage and Session Storage in your browser. These are similar to cookies but allow for more data to be stored locally to improve application performance (e.g., caching UI elements or draft quote data).

7. Updates to this policy

We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time in order to reflect, for example, changes to the cookies we use or for other operational, legal, or regulatory reasons. Please re-visit this Cookie Policy regularly to stay informed about our use of cookies and related technologies.
