COOKIE POLICY

Last Updated: October 9, 2026

This Cookie Policy explains how Parsnipp uses cookies and similar technologies to recognize you when you visit our Service at app.parsnipp.com and our website at parsnipp.com. It should be read together with our Privacy Policy.

1. 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 to make websites work more efficiently and to provide information to website owners. We also use related technologies such as pixels and web beacons; we refer to all of these collectively as "Cookies."

2. CONSENT AND CONTROL

Where the law requires it — in the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom and Switzerland — we ask you to consent to non-essential Cookies (analytics and advertising) through a banner, and we do not set them until you accept. Until then, our analytics runs in a consent-denied, cookieless mode. Elsewhere, these Cookies are set when you visit, on the basis of our legitimate interest in measuring and improving our Service and our marketing, and you can switch them off at any time. If your browser sends a Global Privacy Control signal, we treat it as a decline. We decide which applies from the country of your internet connection (your IP address). Each of our sites (the Service and our website) remembers your choice in its own cookie named cookie_consent. To change your choice, use the "Cookie settings" link: it is in the footer of our website, on the sign-in page, in the account menu, on your email preferences page and at the top of this page. If you decline, we stop these Cookies and delete the ones we set on our own domains. You can also control Cookies in your browser (section 4).

4. HOW TO CONTROL COOKIES
