2. How do we use cookies?

Amongst technologies created and used at ZAST.AI, some of them rely on third-party services and APIs with cookie requirements. Any cookie that is not strictly required for the operation of our site, including any targeting advertising service, can be disabled via the Cookie Consent process. We also honor Global Privacy Control / Do Not Track signals that may be configured in your browser.
We categorize the third-party services that ZAST.AI relies on into three broad categories.
Strictly necessary (always active)
Strictly necessary services are essential for the operation of ZAST.AI’s Cloud Platform, and as such, they cannot be turned off. Examples include tracking security critical information (such as tracking a user’s authenticated session) or storing state in response to actions a user takes (e.g., setting privacy preferences or filling out forms). While you can configure your browser to block or notify you about these cookies, certain parts of the site may not function properly. These cookies do not store any personally identifiable information and are not shared with third parties.
Functional
Functional services enhance website functionality and personalization. They may be set by ZAST.AI or third-party providers whose services are incorporated into ZAST.AI’s Cloud Platform. Disabling these cookies may result in certain services not functioning correctly.
Performance
Performance services enable ZAST.AI to count visits and analyze traffic sources to measure and enhance the website's performance. They provide insights into the most and least popular pages and how visitors navigate the site. Targeting services help build profiles of our users and give us insights into the potential purchasers of our product. These services rely on identifying your browser and internet device uniquely.
Social media
Our site integrates various social media services and are used to let users share ZAST.AI content and information more broadly. They can track your browser across other sites and can be used by the social media services to create an interest profile. This may influence the content and ads you encounter on other websites. Blocking social media cookies will disable content sharing integrations.
You have the option to block cookies by adjusting your browser settings or using third-party tools such as uBlock Origin to refuse all cookies or specific ones.
