Cookies Policy

Last updated: 29 September 2026.

Introduction

This Cookies Policy explains how codezonix uses cookies and similar technologies on our informational website focused on insurance programming topics. As a Malaysia-based non-commercial site, we comply with the Personal Data Protection Act 2010 (PDPA) and related guidelines when cookies collect or process personal data. This policy details our practices, your choices, and how to manage preferences through our site-wide cookie banner on the Contacts page.

What Cookies and Similar Technologies Are

Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you visit a website. They can store information such as your preferences, browsing history, or device details. Similar technologies include web beacons, pixels, and local storage that access or record data about your interactions. These tools help websites remember users but can also track activity across sessions if not managed properly.

Why the Site Uses Cookies

We use cookies to ensure the website functions correctly, improve user experience, and gather limited insights into how visitors engage with insurance programming content. Since the site operates in a non-commercial informational mode with an enabled blog, cookies support basic navigation, content delivery, and performance monitoring without collecting unnecessary personal information.

Categories of Cookies We Use

Strictly Necessary Cookies

These enable core functions like page loading and form submissions on the Contacts page. Without them, essential features would fail.

Functional Cookies

They remember choices such as language settings or blog filters to provide a smoother experience.

Analytics or Performance Cookies

These collect aggregated data on page views and blog engagement to help refine content quality.

Advertising or Targeting Cookies

Currently none are deployed as the site remains non-commercial and does not serve targeted ads.

Social-Media Cookies

None are active because no social sharing plugins or third-party social tools are integrated.

First-Party Versus Third-Party Cookies

First-party cookies are set directly by codezonix and relate only to our domain. Third-party cookies would come from external providers but are minimized; any used are limited to essential analytics services that respect PDPA consent rules.

Session Versus Persistent Cookies

Session cookies expire when you close your browser and handle temporary tasks like form data. Persistent cookies remain for a set period, such as up to 12 months for analytics, allowing repeated visits to retain preferences while we review retention regularly to avoid excessive storage.

Data Handled and Purposes of Each Category

Necessary cookies may handle IP addresses and session IDs solely to maintain site stability. Functional ones store user-selected options like preferred blog categories. Analytics cookies process anonymized usage metrics to identify popular insurance programming articles. No category collects sensitive personal data without explicit consent via the cookie banner.

Consent or Exemption Basis Under Malaysian Law

Under PDPA, strictly necessary cookies operate under legitimate interests exemptions for basic website operation. All other categories require prior consent obtained through our cookie banner. You may withdraw consent at any time, and we honor opt-outs immediately without affecting core functionality.

How to Manage Preferences and Withdraw Consent

Our consent manager, accessible via the site-wide cookie banner, lets you accept, reject, or customize categories before browsing continues. Changes take effect instantly, and prior choices can be revised by revisiting the banner or Contacts page form.

Browser-Level Controls and Consequences of Disabling Cookies

Most browsers allow cookie blocking through settings menus. Disabling necessary cookies may prevent form submissions on the Contacts page or disrupt blog navigation. Users should test settings to balance privacy with site usability.

International Transfers

Any data processed by cookies stays primarily within Malaysia. Where limited transfers occur for analytics, we ensure PDPA-compliant protections; see our separate Privacy Policy for full details on data handling.

Policy Changes

We review this policy periodically and update it to reflect legal or operational shifts. The last-updated date at the top indicates the current version.
