Cookie Policy



Effective Date: 09 January 2026

This Cookie Policy explains how Zephyros Tech Limited ("we", "us", "our") uses cookies and similar technologies on www.edbound.ai and on the related software, applications, features, and services (collectively, the "Platform").

This Policy should be read together with our Privacy Policy, which explains how we collect, use, and protect Personal Information.

1. What are cookies?

Cookies are small text files that are downloaded to your browser or Device when you visit a website or use an online service. Cookies may then be sent back to the originating site on each subsequent visit, or to another site that recognizes that cookie.

Cookies help websites and online services work more efficiently, and provide information to the site owner (for example, statistics about usage, or remembering your preferences).

We use the term "cookies" in this Policy to include cookies, pixels, tags, SDKs, and similar tracking technologies that may operate in your browser, app, or Device.

2. Who sets the cookies?

Cookies on the Platform may be set by:

  • First‑party cookies – cookies placed directly by us (Zephyros Tech Limited) on the Website / Platform.
  • Third‑party cookies – cookies placed by third parties, such as analytics providers, advertising networks, payment processors, or embedded content providers.

Third parties may collect information about your online activities over time and across different websites when you use our Platform.

3. Types of cookies we use and why

We may use the following categories of cookies on the Platform.

3.1 Strictly necessary cookies

These cookies are essential for the operation of the Platform and cannot be switched off in our systems. They are usually set in response to actions made by you, such as:

  • logging into your account,
  • maintaining your session,
  • enabling security features, or
  • remembering your cookie preferences.

You can set your browser to block or alert you about these cookies, but some parts of the Platform may not function properly if they are disabled.

3.2 Functional cookies

These cookies allow the Platform to provide enhanced functionality and personalization, such as:

  • remembering your language or region,
  • saving your display or workspace preferences, or
  • enabling certain optional features.

If you disable these cookies, some or all of these services may not function properly.

3.3 Analytics and performance cookies

These cookies help us understand how the Platform is used, so that we can:

  • measure and improve performance,
  • understand which pages or features are most popular, and
  • troubleshoot issues.

Analytics cookies may collect information such as the pages you visit, how long you stay, and how you arrived at the Platform. We typically use this information in aggregated or de‑identified form.

Where required by law, analytics cookies are used only with your consent.

3.4 Marketing and advertising cookies

These cookies may be set by us or our advertising / marketing partners to:

  • build a profile of your interests,
  • show you relevant advertisements on other sites or platforms, or
  • measure the effectiveness of campaigns.

They may identify your browser or Device across different websites. If you do not allow these cookies, you will still see ads, but they may be less relevant to you.

Where required by law, marketing cookies are used only with your consent.

4. Legal basis for using cookies

Where required by applicable law (including the ADGM Data Protection Regulations 2021 and, where relevant, UK/EU GDPR‑style regimes), we rely on:

  • Your consent for non‑essential cookies (such as analytics and marketing cookies), and
  • Our legitimate interests or contractual necessity for strictly necessary cookies that enable core functionality and security of the Platform.

You can withdraw or change your consent at any time by adjusting your cookie settings (see Sections 5 and 6 below).

5. How you can manage cookies

You have several options to control or limit how cookies are used on the Platform.

5.1 Browser settings

Most web browsers allow you to:

  • view which cookies are stored,
  • delete cookies,
  • block cookies from all or specific sites, and
  • configure how cookies should be handled in future.

Instructions for managing cookies are usually found in your browser's "Help" or "Settings" menu. If you delete or block cookies, some features of the Platform may not work as intended.

5.2 In‑product or banner controls (where available)

Where required by law, or where we choose to implement it, we may provide:

  • a cookie banner or notice when you first visit the Platform, and/or
  • a preferences centre or similar tool that allows you to accept or reject non‑essential cookies.

These tools may not manage all cookies (for example, some strictly necessary cookies may continue to operate), but they will allow you to control non‑essential categories such as analytics or marketing cookies.

5.3 Third‑party opt‑outs

Some third‑party service providers may offer their own opt‑out mechanisms (for example, for analytics or advertising). Where relevant, you can review their documentation or settings for additional control.

6. Cookies on mobile apps and other platforms

If you access the Platform through a mobile application or other non‑browser interface, similar technologies (such as SDKs, mobile identifiers, or local storage) may be used for purposes analogous to cookies.

You can often manage such technologies through your Device settings (for example, limiting ad tracking or resetting your advertising identifier), subject to the capabilities provided by your operating system.

7. Retention of cookie data

The duration for which a cookie remains on your browser or Device depends on whether it is a:

  • Session cookie – deleted when you close your browser, or
  • Persistent cookie – stored for a longer period until it expires or is deleted.

We aim to retain cookies only for as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes described in this Policy. Specific retention periods may vary by cookie and by service provider.

For more detail about how long we keep different categories of data, please also see our Privacy Policy.

8. Changes to this Cookie Policy

We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time, for example to reflect changes in:

  • the cookies we use,
  • applicable law, or
  • our operational or technical practices.

When we make material changes, we will post the updated Policy on this page and update the Effective Date at the top. In some cases we may provide additional notice (for example, via a banner or in‑product message).
