Cookie policy of yancoinc.com
This document provides Users with information regarding the technologies used by this Website to achieve the purposes described below. These technologies allow the Owner to access and store information (such as through the use of a Cookie) or utilize resources (such as running a script) on a User’s device during their interaction with this Website.

For simplicity, all such technologies are referred to as “Trackers” within this document, unless there is a need for differentiation. For instance, while Cookies can be used on both web and mobile browsers, it would be inaccurate to refer to Cookies in the context of mobile apps as they are specific to browser-based Trackers. Therefore, the term “Cookies” is only used in this document when referring to that particular type of Tracker.

Certain purposes for which Trackers are used may require the User’s consent. If consent is given, it can be freely withdrawn at any time by following the instructions provided in this document.

This Website utilizes Trackers that are directly managed by the Owner (referred to as “first-party” Trackers) as well as Trackers that enable services provided by third parties (referred to as “third-party” Trackers). Unless otherwise specified in this document, third-party providers may access the Trackers managed by them.

The validity and expiration periods of Cookies and similar Trackers may vary depending on the duration set by the Owner or the relevant provider. Some Trackers expire when the User’s browsing session ends.

In addition to the information specified in the descriptions within each category below, Users can find more detailed and up-to-date information regarding the duration specification, as well as any other relevant information (such as the presence of other Trackers), in the linked privacy policies of the respective third-party providers or by contacting the Owner.
