What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files placed on your device (computer, tablet, or mobile) when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites work properly, improve efficiency, and provide information to site owners.
There are two main types based on origin:
- First-party cookies — set directly by Connect (belora-connect.com) to make our site work and improve your experience.
- Third-party cookies — set by our partners and service providers (e.g., analytics tools, payment processors) when you visit our site.
Cookies can also be categorized by lifespan: session cookies are deleted when you close your browser, while persistent cookies remain on your device until they expire or you delete them.
Why We Use Cookies
We use cookies to:
- Keep you signed in to your Connect account across sessions
- Remember your language and preferences
- Understand how visitors interact with our website so we can improve it
- Measure the effectiveness of our marketing and communications
- Detect and prevent fraud and abuse
- Deliver relevant content and, where applicable, advertising
Some cookies are strictly necessary for Connect to function — without them, certain features simply wouldn't work. Others are optional and only placed with your consent.

How to Control Your Cookies
Cookie Consent Banner
When you first visit Connect, you'll see a cookie consent banner where you can accept all cookies, reject optional ones, or customize your preferences by category. You can change these preferences at any time by clicking "Cookie Settings" in the footer of our website.
Opt-Out of Analytics
You can opt out of Google Analytics tracking across all websites by installing the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on. For Amplitude, you can contact us at privacy@belora-connect.com to request opt-out.
Advertising Networks
To opt out of interest-based advertising from third-party networks, visit:
Browser Cookie Controls
All modern browsers allow you to view, manage, and delete cookies through your browser settings. Visit your browser's help section for specific instructions:
Please note that restricting cookies may impact the functionality of some features on our site.
Other Tracking Technologies
In addition to cookies, we may use other similar technologies:
Web Beacons (Tracking Pixels)
Tiny invisible image files embedded in web pages or emails that help us understand user behavior — for example, whether an email was opened or whether a webpage was visited after clicking an ad. Web beacons often work in conjunction with cookies.
Local Storage
We may use browser local storage to store non-sensitive preferences (such as UI state) locally on your device. This data does not expire automatically but can be cleared through your browser settings.
Session Storage
Temporary storage used within a single browser session to improve performance and maintain state. This data is cleared automatically when you close your browser tab.
Targeted Advertising
We may work with third-party advertising partners who place cookies on your device to serve ads relevant to your interests based on your browsing activity across different websites.
These partners may use information about your visits to our site and others to show you relevant advertisements. The information collected does not include your name, email address, or other directly identifying information unless you have provided it.
You can opt out of personalized advertising at any time using the controls described in the Control Your Cookies section above, or by visiting the advertising network opt-out links provided there.
Policy Updates
We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time to reflect changes in the cookies we use, new legal requirements, or improvements to our services. When we make significant changes, we will notify you via:
- A notice on our website or a new consent banner
- An email to your registered address (for material changes)
The date at the top of this page always reflects when this policy was last updated. We encourage you to review it periodically.
