Cookie policy.

This Cookie Policy ("Policy") explains how Jiemerald Group S.A.R.L. ("we", "us" or "our") and our authorized third parties use cookies, pixel tags, web beacons, software development kits, local storage and other similar tracking technologies (collectively, "Cookies") on the website located at jiemeraldgroup.com (the "Site"). This Policy should be read together with our Privacy Policy and Terms of Service. By continuing to browse or use the Site, you agree that we can store and access Cookies on your device as described in this Policy, except where consent is required by applicable law and has not been given.

Cookies are small text files that are placed on your device (computer, smartphone, tablet) when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites work, or work more efficiently, as well as to provide information to the operators of the site.

Pixel tags / web beacons are tiny graphic images (often invisible) embedded in web pages or emails that allow operators to verify whether content has been viewed, count visitors, and gather other statistical information.

Local storage objects (such as HTML5 local storage and IndexedDB) store information directly within your browser and may persist across sessions until deliberately cleared.

Software development kits (SDKs) and similar mobile identifiers may be used in any related mobile applications to perform analogous functions.

We classify the Cookies used on the Site into the following categories:

• Strictly necessary / essential cookies. These Cookies are required for the operation of the Site. They include, for example, Cookies that enable you to log into secure areas, route network traffic, balance load, remember your cookie consent preferences, and prevent fraudulent use of the Site. These Cookies do not require consent and cannot be disabled through the consent mechanism. Disabling them via browser settings may render parts of the Site inoperable.
• Functional / preference cookies. These Cookies allow the Site to remember choices you make (such as language, region or display preferences) and provide enhanced, more personal features. The information they collect may be anonymized and they cannot track your browsing activity on other websites.
• Analytical / performance cookies. These Cookies collect information about how visitors use the Site, for example which pages visitors go to most often, time spent on pages, and whether visitors receive error messages. All information collected is aggregated and used solely to improve how the Site works. These Cookies may be set by us or by third-party analytics providers.
• Targeting / advertising cookies. These Cookies record your visit to the Site, the pages you have visited and the links you have followed. We and our advertising partners use this information to make the Site and the advertising displayed on it more relevant to your interests, and to measure the effectiveness of advertising campaigns. They may also be used to limit the number of times you see an advertisement and to build a profile of your interests.
• Social media cookies. Where the Site offers social media sharing or embedded content, the relevant social network may set its own Cookies. We do not control these Cookies; please refer to the privacy and cookie policies of the relevant providers.

Cookies may be either session cookies, which expire when you close your browser, or persistent cookies, which remain on your device for a defined period or until you delete them. The duration of each Cookie depends on its purpose and is documented in our cookie consent management tool, where applicable.

Some Cookies are placed by third parties whose services we have integrated into the Site, such as analytics providers, advertising networks, content delivery networks, fraud-prevention providers, social media platforms and embedded media services. These third parties may combine the information collected on the Site with other information they hold about you for their own purposes, in accordance with their own privacy and cookie notices. We have no control over the operation of such Cookies and encourage you to consult the relevant third-party policies for further information.

Where required by applicable law (including the EU ePrivacy Directive 2002/58/EC as amended, the GDPR, the UK Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulations, and Moroccan Law No. 09-08 supervised by the CNDP), we will request your prior, freely given, specific, informed and unambiguous consent before placing non-essential Cookies on your device. Strictly necessary Cookies are exempt from this consent requirement. You may grant, refuse or withdraw your consent at any time through our cookie consent banner or preference center, accessible from the footer of the Site. Withdrawing your consent will not affect the lawfulness of processing carried out before such withdrawal.

In addition to our consent tool, you can control and manage Cookies through your browser settings. Most browsers allow you to refuse to accept Cookies, delete existing Cookies, and notify you when a new Cookie is set. The specific procedure depends on the browser you use; please consult the help section of your browser:

• Google Chrome — Settings → Privacy and security → Cookies and other site data
• Mozilla Firefox — Settings → Privacy & Security → Cookies and Site Data
• Apple Safari — Preferences → Privacy → Manage Website Data
• Microsoft Edge — Settings → Cookies and site permissions
• Opera — Settings → Advanced → Privacy & security

Please note that disabling certain Cookies may impact the functionality of the Site and prevent you from accessing certain features.

We honor opt-out preference signals, including the Global Privacy Control ("GPC"), to the extent technically feasible and as required by applicable law (including the CCPA/CPRA). When we detect a GPC signal from your browser, we treat it as a valid request to opt out of the "sale" or "sharing" of personal information collected through the browser sending the signal. You may also opt out of interest-based advertising via industry tools such as the Digital Advertising Alliance (optout.aboutads.info), the Network Advertising Initiative (optout.networkadvertising.org) and the European Interactive Digital Advertising Alliance (youronlinechoices.eu).

Some browsers offer a "Do Not Track" ("DNT") feature that signals websites you visit that you do not want your online activities tracked. There is currently no industry consensus regarding how DNT signals should be interpreted, and accordingly the Site does not respond to DNT signals. We do, however, honor GPC signals as described above.

Information collected through Cookies may be transferred to, stored in and processed in countries outside your country of residence, including countries that may not provide a level of data protection equivalent to that of your home jurisdiction. Where applicable, such transfers are protected by appropriate safeguards as described in our Privacy Policy.

We may update this Policy from time to time to reflect changes in technology, legislation, our operations or any other reason. When we do, we will revise the "last updated" date at the top of this Policy. We encourage you to review this Policy periodically to stay informed about our use of Cookies.
