Cookie Policy

Last updated: May 1, 2026

This Cookie Policy explains how Finology uses cookies and similar tracking technologies on stockworldcup.org. It should be read alongside our Privacy Policy.

1. What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you visit a website. They allow the site to recognize your browser and remember certain information about your visit — such as your login status or cookie consent preference. Cookies cannot execute code or deliver viruses.

2. Types of Cookies We Use

Strictly Necessary Cookies

These cookies are required for the platform to function. They include:

  • Session authentication cookies (keep you logged in during a session)
  • Cookie consent preference storage (remembers your accept/decline choice)
  • CSRF protection tokens (prevent cross-site request forgery)

You cannot opt out of strictly necessary cookies. Without them, core platform features will not work.

Analytics Cookies

We use analytics cookies to understand how users interact with the platform — which pages are visited most, where users drop off, and how competition features are used. This data is aggregated and anonymized. We use it to improve the platform experience. Analytics cookies are only set if you accept them via the cookie banner.

Functional Cookies

These cookies remember your preferences to improve your experience — such as your language or display settings across sessions. They are only active with your consent.

3. Third-Party Cookies

We may use third-party analytics services that set their own cookies on our domain. These services are contractually prohibited from using your data for advertising purposes. We do not use advertising or retargeting cookies.

4. Managing Cookie Preferences

When you first visit Finology, a cookie banner gives you the option to accept or decline non-essential cookies. You can change your preference at any time by clearing your browser's cookies — the consent banner will reappear on your next visit.

You can also control cookies through your browser settings. Most browsers allow you to block or delete cookies from specific sites. Note that blocking strictly necessary cookies will prevent you from logging in or using competition features.

5. Cookie Duration

  • Session cookies: expire when you close your browser
  • Preference and consent cookies: persist for 12 months
  • Analytics cookies: typically expire within 13 months

6. Korean Regulatory Context

Under the Korean Act on Promotion of Information and Communications Network Utilization and Information Protection, we are required to inform users about cookies and obtain consent for non-essential tracking. Our cookie banner is designed to meet this requirement. If you are accessing the platform from the EU, EEA, or UK, we also comply with applicable ePrivacy and GDPR requirements.

7. Updates to This Policy

We may update this Cookie Policy as our technology or legal requirements change. The date at the top of the page reflects the latest revision. Continued use of the platform after an update constitutes acceptance of the revised policy.
