This page explains the cookies and similar technologies used to operate the iWORKS public website and customer portal, and how you can manage them.
1. What cookies and local storage do
Cookies are small identifiers stored by your browser and sent with certain requests. Browser session storage and local storage can also keep preferences or support-chat state on your device. These technologies can help the site recognize a session, protect login operations, remember a currency selection and keep a conversation available while you navigate.
2. Necessary website and account storage
We use strictly necessary session and security mechanisms for authentication, CSRF protection, fraud prevention and safe portal access. Disabling these features may prevent login, payments or service tracking from operating correctly.
3. Functional preferences and chat continuity
Where used, a currency preference such as pay_currency can remember an available display or payment currency. Our support widget may use browser storage to maintain a chat identifier, saved conversation state or dismissed consultation suggestion. These features support an action you initiate; browser settings can clear the stored data.
4. Third-party providers
Some features, including payment gateways, external sign-in, embedded media or externally hosted fonts, may involve requests to third-party services. Those services may set their own necessary cookies or process device/network information when used. Check the provider’s own privacy information during its service flow.
5. Analytics and advertising technologies
We do not describe optional analytics or advertising cookies as essential. If non-essential tracking is introduced, it must be subject to clear information, prior consent where required, and usable refusal and withdrawal mechanisms before activation. A policy page alone does not grant consent to such tracking.
6. How long information lasts
Session cookies normally expire with the browser session or server-configured session lifecycle. A functional preference or support-chat item may remain until its programmed expiration, your browser removes it or you clear site data. Third-party services have their own retention and expiration policies.
7. Your controls
Most browsers allow you to inspect, delete or block cookies and clear site storage through their privacy settings. Blocking necessary cookies can interrupt requested account functions. Where consent-based tracking is introduced, an in-site mechanism will be provided to reject or change that choice as required by law.
8. International visitors
Applicable rules can differ in Nigeria, the UK, EU/EEA, US, Canada, Australia and elsewhere. We will assess which rules govern each use of optional storage and consent. This policy does not remove rights given by mandatory local law.
