Ergo Global Cookie Policy.

Effective Date: September 15, 2026

This Cookie Policy outlines how we utilize cookies and similar technologies in the course of our business, including through our website, https://ergoglobal.com/ (referred to as the “website” or “site”), which is owned and operated by Ergo Global Pte. Ltd. (“Ergo Global”, “we”, “us”, and “our”). It provides details on what these technologies are, why we use them, and your rights to control our use of them. Any capitalized terms used but not defined in this Cookie Policy shall have the meanings assigned to them in our Privacy Policy.

What types of tracking technologies are used?

Type of technology Description
Cookies

Сookies are small files placed onto your device that enable our website features and functionality. Any browser visiting our website may receive cookies from us or cookies from third parties such as our partners or service providers, as mentioned in the Cookie Table below. We or third parties may also place cookies in your browser when you visit external sites that display ads or that host our plugins or tags.

 

We use two types of cookies: persistent cookies and session cookies. Persistent cookies last beyond the current session and are used for many purposes, such as recognizing you as an existing user, so it’s easier to return to our website and interact with our Services. Since persistent cookies stay in your browser, it will be read by our website when you return to it. Session cookies last only as long as the session (usually the current visit to the website or a browser session).

Pixels Pixels are tiny images that may be embedded within web pages and emails, requiring a call (which provides device and visit information) to our servers in order for the pixel to be rendered in those web pages and emails. We use pixels to learn more about your interactions with email content or web content, such as whether you interact with ads or posts. Pixels can also enable us and third parties to place cookies on your browser.
Local storage Local storage enables our website to store information locally on your devices. Local storage may be used to improve your experience, for example, by enabling features, remembering your language preferences, and speeding up the website functionality.
IndexedDB

IndexedDB is a browser-based storage technology that enables our website to store larger amounts of structured data locally on your device. It may be used to support website functionality, remember settings and preferences, store application data, improve performance, and enable certain features to work efficiently across browsing sessions.

Other similar technologies In addition, we and our marketing partners, affiliates, analytics, and service providers may use a variety of other technologies, such as web beacons or tracking tags, that collect similar information for security and fraud detection purposes, and we may use third parties to perform these services on our behalf. This data helps us enhance your experience, deliver relevant content, and monitor website performance. These technologies may also enable us and our partners to place cookies on your device.

How do we use cookies?

We use cookies in a range of ways to improve your experience on our website, including:

  • understand how you use our website;
  • store your preferences, for example, language preferences;
  • protect from malicious activities such as automated registrations;
  • aggregate non-personalized reports of usage such as geographic area, device type, and browser type;
  • estimate our audience size and usage pattern;
  • store information about your preferences, and so allow us to customize our website and provide you with offers that are targeted to your individual interests;
  • speed up your searches;
  • recognize you when you return to our website; or
  • allow you to use our website in a way that makes your browsing experience more convenient, for example, by allowing you to store items in an electronic shopping basket between visits. If you complete our online forms, we will use cookies to remember your details during your current visit, and any future visits, provided the cookie was not deleted in the interim.

What types of cookies do we use?

There are a number of different types of cookies, however, our website uses the following:

Type of cookies Purpose Description
Strictly necessary cookies These are cookies that are required for the operation of our website. They include, for example, cookies that enable you to log into secure areas of our website, identify users, help the website to distinguish between humans and bots, provide spam protection, or prevent and detect abuse on the website.  
Functionality or preferences cookies These cookies are used to recognize you when you return to our website. This enables us to personalize our content for you, greet you by name, remember your preferences, and show you relevant results based on your choice of language or region, for example. A mix of first-party and third-party functionality cookies is used.
Analytical or statistics cookies These cookies allow us to recognize and count the number of visitors and to see how visitors move around our website when they are using it. This helps us to improve the way our website works, for example, by ensuring that users are finding what they are looking for easily.
Advertising or targeting cookies These cookies record your visit to our website, the pages you have visited, and the links you have followed, and information about your browser device and your IP address. We will use this information to make our website and the advertising displayed on it more relevant to your interests. We may also share this information with third parties for this purpose.

Which third-party cookies do we use?

Our website utilizes third-party cookies to incorporate functionalities offered by external entities (e.g., website analytics, ensuring the functionality of embedded video players, etc.). These companies may employ various technologies, such as cookies and web beacons, enabling them to collect data regarding your browsing activity on our website and other sites. This data may be aggregated with similar information from other services and companies. The aggregated data may be used for various purposes, including but not limited to data analysis, tracking user behavior, assessing the popularity of specific content, and gaining insights into your online activities.

 

It is important to note that the information gathered through these means does not allow us or the third-party companies to personally identify you. Below is a list of some of the cookies we commonly use, outlined in our Cookie Table. While this list is not exhaustive, it serves to highlight the primary purposes for which we typically use cookies.

 

Certain third parties we work with may provide their own opt-out tools for information collected through cookies and pixels. You may manage your preferences and revoke consent for third-party cookies and tracking services through the relevant opt-out links (where available) or by following the procedures outlined in the third party’s privacy policy. For additional information on the data they collect and instructions on how to opt-out, please refer to the privacy policy or opt-out links provided below in the Cookie Table.
