Cookie declaration

Last updated: 23 August 2026  |  Version: 1.0

This Cookie Declaration explains how Unwhu ("we", "us") uses cookies and similar technologies on our website and any related subdomains (together, the "Site"). By using the Site, you consent to the use of cookies as described in this declaration.

What are cookies?

Cookies are small text files placed on your device by the websites you visit. They are widely used to make websites work more efficiently and to provide information to the site owners. Cookies allow a website to remember your actions and preferences over a period of time, so you don't have to re-enter them every time you visit the site or move from one page to another.

Cookies cannot be used to identify you personally. They are not viruses and they do not contain software programmes, so they cannot access the data on your device or spread malware.

How we use cookies

We use cookies for the following purposes:

  • Operating the Site: enabling core functionality such as page navigation, secure areas and accessibility.
  • Remembering your preferences: storing your language, region and display choices so you don't have to set them again.
  • Understanding how the Site is used: collecting anonymous analytics to help us improve content, performance and reliability.
  • Communicating with you: remembering whether you have seen our launch announcement or mailing-list signup so we don't show it repeatedly.
  • Marketing and outreach: measuring the effectiveness of our campaigns and showing you relevant content about Unwhu services.

How we handle your data

Unwhu is committed to protecting your privacy and handling any personal data collected through cookies responsibly and transparently. This section explains what data is collected, why we collect it, how long we keep it, who we share it with and the rights you have over it.

What data is collected through cookies

The data collected through cookies is generally limited to technical information about your device and your browsing activity. This may include your IP address (truncated where possible), browser type and version, time zone, the pages you visit, the time and date of each visit, and the referring page you came from. Where you complete a form — such as joining our mailing list or registering business interest — we may also collect the information you provide directly, such as your name, email address, phone number and city.

Why we collect it (legal basis)

We rely on the following lawful bases to collect data through cookies:

  • Consent: for Preference, Statistics and Marketing cookies, we rely on your consent, which you can withdraw at any time.
  • Legitimate interests: for strictly necessary and basic security measures, we rely on our legitimate interests in keeping the Site secure and functioning.
  • Contract: where data is needed to provide a service you have requested, such as responding to a signup or enquiry.

How long we keep it

We only keep cookie data for as long as is necessary for the purpose it was collected. Session cookies are deleted when you close your browser. Persistent cookies are retained for the period set when they are created or until you delete them. Personal data collected through forms is retained only for as long as is required to fulfil the purpose for which it was collected, including responding to your enquiry and keeping you informed about the Unwhu launch.

Who we share it with

We do not sell your personal data. We may share cookie and form data with trusted third-party service providers who help us operate, analyse and improve the Site — for example analytics, email and hosting providers. These providers act on our behalf under appropriate data-processing agreements and only use your data to deliver services to us. We may also disclose data where required by law or to protect our rights and safety.

Your rights

Depending on where you live, you may have the right to:

  • Access the personal data we hold about you;
  • Request correction of inaccurate or incomplete data;
  • Request deletion of your personal data;
  • Object to or restrict certain processing of your data;
  • Withdraw your consent to non-essential cookies at any time;
  • Request a copy of your data in a portable format.

To exercise any of these rights, or to ask a question about how we handle your data, please contact us at support@unwhu.com. For more detail on how we process personal data, please see our Privacy Notice.

Types of cookies we use

We group cookies into four categories based on their purpose. Strictly Necessary cookies are always active. You can choose whether to accept Preference, Statistics and Marketing cookies.

Strictly Necessary

These cookies are essential for the website to function and cannot be switched off. They are usually only set in response to actions made by you which amount to a request for services, such as setting your privacy preferences, logging in or filling in forms. You can set your browser to block or alert you about these cookies, but some parts of the site will not then work.

Examples: Session identifier, Cookie consent state, Security tokens

Preference

These cookies enable the website to remember information that changes the way the website behaves or looks, such as your preferred language, region or the option to show the launch announcement banner. They are not essential for the website to function, but they provide you with a more personalised experience.

Examples: Language preference, Region selection, UI display settings

Statistics

These cookies help us understand how visitors interact with the website by collecting and reporting information anonymously. They allow us to measure and improve the performance of our site so we can continue to deliver a better experience for you.

Examples: Anonymous visit counts, Page view metrics, Referrer information

Marketing

These cookies are used to make advertising messages more relevant to you and your interests. They may be set by us or by third-party advertising partners through our site to build a profile of your interests and show you relevant adverts on other sites.

Examples: Advertising identifiers, Audience segments, Conversion tracking

How long cookies stay on your device

Cookies are either session cookies — deleted automatically when you close your browser — or persistent cookies, which remain on your device for a set period or until you delete them. The length of time a persistent cookie stays depends on its purpose and is set when the cookie is created.

Managing and deleting cookies

You can control and delete cookies through your browser settings. Most browsers allow you to refuse cookies or alert you before cookies are stored. You can usually delete cookies from your browser's privacy or history settings. Be aware that restricting or blocking cookies may affect the functionality of the Site — some features may not work as intended.

For guidance on managing cookies in your browser, visit the help section of your browser:

Third-party cookies

In some cases, we may use third-party services that set their own cookies on your device to provide analytics, advertising or embedded content. We do not control these cookies, and their use is subject to the relevant third party's own cookie and privacy policies.

Changes to this declaration

We may update this Cookie Declaration from time to time to reflect changes in technology, legislation or our practices. The "Last updated" date at the top of this page indicates when the declaration was last revised.
