This Cookie Policy explains how AXK Omni Inc. ("AXK Omni," "we," "us," or "our") uses cookies and similar technologies on our website and mobile applications (collectively, the "Services"). This policy provides you with information about what cookies are, how we use them, how third parties we may partner with may use cookies, your choices regarding cookies, and further information about cookies.

This Cookie Policy is part of our Privacy Policy. By using our Services, you consent to the use of cookies and similar technologies in accordance with this Cookie Policy.

2. What Are Cookies

Cookies are small text files that are placed on your computer, smartphone, or other device when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites work more efficiently, provide a better user experience, and give website owners information about how their sites are used.

2.1 Types of Cookies Based on Lifespan

  • Session Cookies: These cookies are temporary and are deleted from your device when you close your web browser. They are used to remember you during a single visit.
  • Persistent Cookies: These cookies remain on your device for a specified period or until you delete them manually. They help websites remember your preferences and settings when you return.

2.2 Types of Cookies Based on Provider

  • First-Party Cookies: These cookies are set by the website you are visiting (in this case, AXK Omni) and can only be read by that site.
  • Third-Party Cookies: These cookies are set by parties other than AXK Omni, such as analytics providers, advertising networks, or social media platforms.

2.3 Similar Technologies

In addition to cookies, we may use other similar technologies on our Services, including:

  • Web Beacons (Pixel Tags): Small transparent image files used to track user behavior, verify delivery of content, and compile statistics about website usage.
  • Local Storage Objects: Technologies like HTML5 localStorage that allow websites to store larger amounts of data on your device.
  • Tracking URLs: Shortened links that help us understand where traffic to our website comes from.
  • Software Development Kits (SDKs): In our mobile applications, we may use code snippets provided by third parties to collect information about app usage.

3. Cookies We Use

We use different types of cookies on our Services for various purposes:

3.1 Essential Cookies

These cookies are necessary for the website to function properly and cannot be switched off in our systems. They are usually set in response to actions made by you, such as setting your privacy preferences, logging in, or filling in forms. They help make our Services usable by enabling basic functions like page navigation and access to secure areas. Without these cookies, our Services would not work properly.

Examples of essential cookies we use:

3.2 Analytics Cookies

These cookies allow us to count visits and traffic sources so we can measure and improve the performance of our Services. They help us understand which pages are the most and least popular, how visitors move around the site, and whether users encounter any errors. If you do not allow these cookies, we will not know when you have visited our site, and we will not be able to monitor its performance.

Examples of analytics cookies we use:

3.3 Functionality Cookies

These cookies enable enhanced functionality and personalization on our Services. 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, some or all of these features may not function properly.

Examples of functionality cookies we use:

3.4 Marketing Cookies

These cookies may be set through our Services by our advertising partners. They may be used by those companies to build a profile of your interests and show you relevant advertisements on other websites. 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.

Examples of marketing cookies we use:

4. Third-Party Cookies

In addition to our own cookies, we may also use various third-party cookies to enhance your experience, report usage statistics, and deliver content and advertisements relevant to your interests.

4.1 Analytics Partners

We use third-party analytics services, such as Google Analytics, to help us understand how users engage with our Services. These services may collect information about your online activities over time and across different websites. To learn more about how Google Analytics uses your data, visit https://www.google.com/policies/privacy/partners/.

4.2 Advertising Partners

We may partner with third-party ad networks, such as Google AdSense, Facebook Audience Network, and others, to display advertising on our Services or to manage our advertising on other sites. These partners may use cookies and similar technologies to collect information about your activities on our Services and other websites to provide you with targeted advertising based on your browsing activities and interests.

4.3 Social Media Partners

Our Services may include features from social media platforms, such as "Like" or "Share" buttons. These features may collect your IP address, which page you are visiting, and may set a cookie to enable the feature to function properly. These features are either hosted by a third party or hosted directly on our Services. Your interactions with these features are governed by the privacy policy of the company providing them.

4.4 Other Third Parties

We may also allow certain third parties to place cookies on our Services for other purposes, such as:

  • Customer support providers
  • Security and fraud detection services

5. Your Cookie Choices

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

5.1 Cookie Consent Banner

When you first visit our Services, you will be presented with a cookie consent banner that allows you to accept or reject different categories of cookies. You can change your preferences at any time through our Cookie Preference Center.

5.2 Browser Settings

Most web browsers allow you to control cookies through their settings. You can usually find these settings in the "Options," "Preferences," or "Settings" menu of your browser. You can also configure your browser to decline cookies, and to delete existing cookies. Please note that if you choose to block all cookies, you may not be able to access all or part of our Services, or some features may not function properly.

5.3 Opt-Out Mechanisms

Many third-party advertising networks offer opt-out mechanisms to allow you to control their use of your information for targeted advertising. Some resources to help you opt out include:

5.4 Mobile Device Settings

On your mobile device, you can adjust your privacy and advertising settings to limit tracking for advertising or to reset your advertising identifier. These settings are available in your device's settings app:

  • iOS: Settings → Privacy → Advertising
  • Android: Settings → Google → Ads

5.5 Do Not Track Signals

Some browsers have incorporated "Do Not Track" (DNT) features that can send a signal to the websites you visit indicating you do not wish to be tracked. Because there is not yet a common understanding of how to interpret the DNT signal, our Services do not currently respond to browser DNT signals. However, you can use the range of other tools we provide to control data collection and use, including the ability to opt out of receiving personalized advertisements as described above.

7. Updates to This Policy

We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time to reflect changes in technology, regulation, our business practices, or for other reasons. When we make changes, we will update the "Last Updated" date at the top of this policy and take other appropriate measures to notify you, depending on the significance of the changes we make.

We encourage you to periodically review this Cookie Policy to stay informed about our use of cookies and related technologies. Your continued use of our Services after the posting of changes to this Cookie Policy will signify your acceptance of those changes.
