This Cookies & Similar Technologies Policy ("Policy") explains how KNVEX ("KNVEX," "we," "us," or "our") uses cookies, local storage, software development kits ("SDKs"), device identifiers, advertising identifiers, and similar technologies (together, "Technologies") in connection with the KNVEX mobile application and related services (the "Platform").
This Policy should be read together with the KNVEX Privacy Policy and KNVEX Terms & Conditions. Where this Policy and the Privacy Policy conflict on a data-processing matter, the Privacy Policy governs.
Because KNVEX primarily operates through a mobile application, not every technology used by the Platform is technically a "cookie."
Accordingly, this Policy covers:
The exact technologies used may vary depending on the Platform feature, device, operating system, and technical configuration.
KNVEX's use of these Technologies is intended to operate consistently with applicable Indian law, including:
The DPDP Act and DPDP Rules are being brought into force in stages. Provisions relating to the Data Protection Board of India took effect immediately on notification, while most operational obligations for organisations — including the cross-border transfer framework under Section 16 — are being phased in over the following months. KNVEX will update its data practices, and this Policy, as further provisions come into force.
Based on the services currently used by KNVEX, the Platform may use the following technologies and service providers:
KNVEX may use Firebase Authentication to:
KNVEX may use Cloud Firestore to store and manage information required for Platform operation, which may include:
KNVEX may use Firebase Storage / Cloud Storage for Firebase to store and deliver user-uploaded content such as:
KNVEX may use Google Analytics for Firebase / Firebase Analytics to understand how users interact with the application.
KNVEX may use Firebase Crashlytics to identify, analyze, and resolve application crashes and diagnostic information.
KNVEX may use Firebase Cloud Messaging (FCM) to deliver push notifications to users for accounts, listings, and security alerts.
KNVEX uses Google AdMob to display advertisements in the mobile application, processing advertising identifiers and measurement data.
Depending on your location, device settings, and consent, KNVEX may display personalized or contextual advertisements. We do not guarantee every advertisement will be personalized.
Google AdMob may use device-level identifiers for advertising-related purposes where permitted. Android applications targeting Android 13 or later follow strict permission declarations.
KNVEX may use local storage to maintain session information, user preferences (theme, language), and selected filters to improve functionality.
Location information is used for nearby listings, distance calculations, and search relevance as described in our Privacy Policy.
Through SDKs, we process technical metadata including device model, OS, IP address, and application performance data.
KNVEX uses infrastructure providers including Google Firebase, AdMob, Google Maps, Cloudinary, and Vercel.
Google Maps: Processes location for geographical search and maps.
Cloudinary: Stores and delivers user-uploaded media.
Vercel: Provides hosting and security infrastructure.
Providers may process data outside India. KNVEX complies with Section 16 of the DPDP Act regarding restricted territories and remains responsible for data protection.
Users can manage permissions (Camera, Location, Files) via device settings. Disabling Technologies may cause some Platform features to function differently.
Information is retained only as long as required. Users (Data Principals) have rights of access, correction, and erasure under the DPDP Act.
The Platform is not intended for users under 18. We do not knowingly track or behaviorally profile children.
