3. Types of Cookies We Use
We employ different types of Cookies to support the Service’s functionality and performance. Essential Cookies are necessary for the Service to operate, enabling core functions such as secure login, account management, and reward redemption processing, without which the Service would not function properly.

Survey partners, such as Voqall, may use Cookies to track your survey completions and ensure accurate attribution of points, maintaining the integrity of our zero-bot policy. Payment processors, such as PayPal, may set Cookies to facilitate secure and instant reward redemptions. These third parties are subject to their own privacy policies, and we encourage you to review them to understand their data practices.
