Introduction

In this Cookie Policy, "Nume," "Nume Labs," "we," "us," or "our" refers to Nume OÜ, a company registered in Estonia, having its registered office at Tartu Maantee 67/1-13B, 10115 Tallinn, Estonia. Nume operates the websites numelabs.org, numelabs.io, nume.com.au, and any other domains or subdomains under the Nume brand (collectively, the "Websites"), and all associated services.

This Cookie Policy explains how we use cookies and similar technologies to recognize you when you visit our Websites. It explains what these technologies are and why we use them, as well as your rights to control our use of them in compliance with applicable privacy regulations, including the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and similar laws.

This Cookie Policy should be read alongside our Privacy Policy, which explains how we use your personal information more broadly.

What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small data files that are placed on your computer or mobile device when you visit a website. Cookies are widely used by website owners in order 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, Nume) 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). The parties that set these third-party cookies can recognize your computer both when it visits the website in question and also when it visits certain other websites.

Legal Basis for Processing (Under GDPR)

Under the GDPR and similar laws, we process your personal data collected through cookies based on the following legal grounds:

• Consent: For non-essential cookies (performance, functionality, targeting/advertising), we process your personal data based on the consent you provide when you accept these cookies via our cookie banner or consent management platform.
• Legitimate Interest: For essential/strictly necessary cookies, we process your personal data based on our legitimate interest to ensure our website functions properly and securely.
• Contractual Necessity: Some cookies may be necessary to fulfill our contractual obligations to you when you use certain services.

You can withdraw your consent to non-essential cookies at any time by adjusting your preferences in our Cookie Consent Manager or through your browser settings.

Why Do We Use Cookies?

We use first-party and third-party cookies for several reasons. Some cookies are required for technical reasons in order for our website to operate, and we refer to these as "essential" or "strictly necessary" cookies. Other cookies also enable us to track and target the interests of our users to enhance the experience on our website. Third parties serve cookies through our website for advertising, analytics, and other purposes.

The specific types of first and third-party cookies served through our website and the purposes they perform are described below:

Types of Cookies We Use

Essential Cookies

These cookies are strictly necessary to provide you with services available through our website and to use some of its features, such as access to secure areas. Without these cookies, services you have asked for, like shopping carts or secure customer accounts, cannot be provided.

Legal basis: Legitimate interest
Retention period: Most essential cookies are session cookies that are deleted when you close your browser. Others might last from a few minutes up to several years, depending on their specific function.

Performance/Analytics Cookies

These cookies allow us to count visits and traffic sources so we can measure and improve the performance of our site. They help us to know which pages are the most and least popular and see how visitors move around the site. All information these cookies collect is aggregated and therefore anonymous. If you do not allow these cookies we will not know when you have visited our site, and will not be able to monitor its performance.

Legal basis: Consent
Retention period: Most performance cookies last between 1 day and 2 years, depending on the service (e.g., Google Analytics cookies typically last for 2 years).

Functionality Cookies

These cookies enable the website 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. If you do not allow these cookies then some or all of these services may not function properly.

Legal basis: Consent
Retention period: Functionality cookies typically last from 1 day to 1 year.

Targeting/Advertising Cookies

These cookies may be set through our site by our advertising partners. They may be used by those companies to build a profile of your interests and show you relevant adverts on other sites. They do not store directly personal information, but are based on uniquely identifying your browser and internet device. If you do not allow these cookies, you will experience less targeted advertising.

Legal basis: Consent
Retention period: Most targeting/advertising cookies last between 30 days and 1 year.

Specific Cookies We Use

Below is a list of the main cookies that may be used on our Websites:

Please note that the cookies we use may change over time. We will keep this Cookie Policy updated with the most current information.

Data Transfers

Information collected through cookies may be transferred to and processed in countries outside of the European Economic Area (EEA). Some of these countries may not provide the same level of data protection as your home country. When we transfer your information to other countries, we will protect that information as described in our Privacy Policy and in accordance with applicable law.

For transfers to countries without an adequacy decision by the European Commission, we implement appropriate safeguards such as standard contractual clauses to ensure your information is protected.

Your Rights

Under the GDPR and similar privacy laws, you have certain rights regarding cookies and the personal data they may collect:

• Right to consent and withdraw consent: You have the right to give or withhold consent for non-essential cookies.

• Right to erasure: You can request deletion of personal data collected through cookies.

How Can You Control Cookies?

You have the right to decide whether to accept or reject cookies. You can exercise your cookie rights by setting your preferences in the Cookie Consent Manager. The Cookie Consent Manager allows you to select which categories of cookies you accept or reject. Essential cookies cannot be rejected as they are strictly necessary to provide you with services.

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. You may also set or amend your web browser controls to accept or refuse cookies.

Do Not Track
