This Cookie Policy explains how Unsolved Technology LLP, operating under the brand VaakuOS ("VaakuOS", "we", "our" or "us"), uses cookies and similar technologies on the VaakuOS website at https://vaakuos.com/, the VaakuOS application at https://app.vaakuos.com/, and, where applicable, through VaakuOS technologies installed on merchants' websites, including our abandoned-cart tracking script and chat widget.
This Cookie Policy should be read together with our Privacy Policy, which explains more generally how VaakuOS collects, uses, stores, discloses and protects personal data.
This Cookie Policy is intended for users in India and describes our practices in relation to applicable Indian law.
1. What Are Cookies and Similar Technologies?
Cookies are small text files that websites may store on your device when you visit a website. Cookies can help websites remember information about your visit, maintain sessions, provide functionality and understand how a website is used.
VaakuOS also uses technologies that perform similar functions, including:
Local storage: browser storage that allows information to remain on your device after a webpage or browser session ends.
Session storage: browser storage that generally remains available while a browser tab or session is open and is cleared when the session or tab ends.
Pixels and tags: small pieces of code that can help us or third-party providers understand whether a page was viewed or an action was taken.
Similar tracking technologies: other technologies that identify a browser, device, session or interaction with our Services.
For simplicity, this Cookie Policy uses the term "cookies and similar technologies" to refer collectively to these technologies.
First-party and third-party technologies
First-party technologies are placed or controlled by VaakuOS.
Third-party technologies are provided by another company whose service is used on our website or application, such as analytics, payment, authentication or advertising providers.

Certain features of VaakuOS may load third-party services only when you use the relevant feature.
Google Sign-In
When you choose to sign in using Google, Google authentication resources may be loaded. Google may use cookies or similar technologies to provide authentication, security and related functionality.
Razorpay
When you use a Razorpay payment or checkout flow, Razorpay may load its scripts and use cookies or similar technologies for payment processing, security, fraud prevention and related purposes.
Third-party technologies used during these flows are controlled by the relevant provider and may be subject to that provider's privacy policy.
Sentry
If an application error occurs, VaakuOS may send technical error information to our error-monitoring provider, Sentry, to help us diagnose and resolve problems.
Sentry is not used by VaakuOS as an advertising-cookie provider.
7. Technologies Used on Merchants' Websites
Businesses using VaakuOS may install VaakuOS technologies on their websites, including:
the VaakuOS abandoned-cart script (
abandoned-cart.js); andthe VaakuOS chat widget.
These technologies may use browser storage to support functionality configured by the merchant.
The merchant determines whether to install and use these technologies on its website.
Where VaakuOS processes shopper information on behalf of a merchant, the merchant generally determines the purposes for which that shopper information is collected and used, subject to the applicable contractual and legal relationship between the merchant and VaakuOS.
The merchant is responsible for providing shoppers with any notices required by applicable law and obtaining consent where required.
8. Abandoned-Cart Technologies
When a merchant uses VaakuOS abandoned-cart functionality, the VaakuOS script may store information in the shopper's browser to recognise a shopping session or support cart-recovery functionality.
The following values may be used:
Name | Purpose | Typical Duration |
|---|---|---|
| Random visitor identifier used to recognise a returning shopper | Until cleared, reset or otherwise removed |
| Identifier for the current shopping cart | Until purchase, clearing, reset or replacement |
| Stores first-touch campaign information, such as referrer and applicable UTM parameters | Until cleared or reset |
| Stores the shopper's email address after it has been provided, to support merchant-configured cart-recovery functionality | Until cleared, reset or otherwise removed |

| Stores the shopper's name after it has been provided, to support merchant-configured cart-recovery functionality | Until cleared, reset or otherwise removed |
The precise behaviour may depend on the merchant's configuration and the version of the VaakuOS script being used.
9. Chat Widget
A merchant may install the VaakuOS chat widget on its website.
The widget may use browser storage and related technologies to:
maintain the widget's state;
support an ongoing chat session;
remember relevant preferences;
associate conversations with a browser or session; and
provide the functionality configured by the merchant.
The information collected through a merchant's chat widget may include personal data where a shopper voluntarily provides information such as their name, email address, phone number or message content.
Where VaakuOS processes such information on behalf of a merchant, the merchant determines the purposes and means of processing subject to the applicable arrangement between the merchant and VaakuOS.
10. Consent and Cookie Preferences
VaakuOS distinguishes between technologies that are necessary for the operation of the Services and optional technologies such as analytics and marketing technologies.
Where applicable law requires consent for an optional technology, VaakuOS will seek consent through the applicable consent or cookie-preference mechanism before using that technology.
Where a cookie-preference mechanism is provided, you may use it to:
accept optional technologies;
decline optional technologies;
change your preferences; and
withdraw previously provided consent.
Withdrawing consent does not affect processing that was lawfully carried out before the withdrawal.
Some strictly necessary technologies cannot be disabled through cookie-preference controls because doing so may prevent the website or application from operating properly.
11. How to Manage Cookies and Browser Storage
You can manage or delete cookies and browser storage through your browser settings.
Most modern browsers allow you to:
view stored cookies;
delete cookies;
block cookies;
delete local storage;
delete session storage; and
configure whether websites can store information on your device.
If you block or delete strictly necessary storage, some VaakuOS functionality, including authentication or application features, may not work correctly.
Browser controls are separate from any cookie-preference controls provided by VaakuOS.
12. Changes to Your Cookie Choices
Where VaakuOS provides cookie-preference controls, you may change your optional cookie choices after initially making them.
If you withdraw consent for analytics or marketing technologies, VaakuOS will apply the updated preference to future processing where technically and legally applicable.
Previously collected information may continue to be retained where there is a lawful basis or legitimate operational reason to retain it, subject to our Privacy Policy and applicable law.
13. Information Collected Through Merchant Websites
This Cookie Policy does not make VaakuOS responsible for a merchant's independent privacy practices.
If you visit a merchant's website that uses VaakuOS technology:
the merchant is responsible for its own website privacy practices;
the merchant is responsible for determining the purposes for which shopper information is collected;
the merchant is responsible for providing notices required by applicable law;
the merchant is responsible for obtaining consent where required; and
the merchant may have its own privacy and cookie policies.
If you have a question about how a particular merchant uses your personal data, you should generally contact that merchant directly.
If your concern relates specifically to VaakuOS's processing of information on behalf of that merchant, you may also contact us using the details below.
14. Relationship With Our Privacy Policy
Cookies and similar technologies may collect or generate information that can be associated with an identifiable person.
Where information collected through cookies or similar technologies constitutes personal data under applicable law, VaakuOS handles that information in accordance with our Privacy Policy and applicable Indian law.
Our Privacy Policy provides additional information about:
personal data collected by VaakuOS;
purposes of processing;
data sharing;
service providers;
data retention;
security;
user rights;
grievance and privacy requests; and
other aspects of our personal-data processing.
15. Third-Party Services
VaakuOS may use third-party service providers for analytics, authentication, payments, advertising measurement, error monitoring and other functionality.
Examples may include:
Google;
Meta Platforms;
Microsoft Clarity;
Mixpanel;
Razorpay; and
Sentry.
The technologies used by these providers may change over time.
Third-party providers may process information in accordance with their own privacy policies and terms.
Where appropriate, links to relevant third-party privacy information may be provided through the applicable service or our Privacy Policy.
16. Data Security
VaakuOS uses reasonable technical and organisational measures designed to protect information processed through its Services.
However, no website, application, browser storage mechanism or transmission over the internet can be guaranteed to be completely secure.
We may retain information collected through cookies and similar technologies only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes for which it was collected, for legitimate operational requirements, or as otherwise permitted or required by applicable law.
17. Children's Privacy
VaakuOS is a business-oriented SaaS platform and is not intended to be directed toward children.
We do not knowingly use our Services to intentionally collect personal data from children in circumstances where such collection is prohibited by applicable law.

We may update this Cookie Policy when we:
introduce new technologies;
remove existing technologies;
change how a technology is used;
change third-party providers;
change our Services; or
