Talo Pay uses a minimal set of cookies. We do not use cookies to store financial or payment data, and we do not use advertising cookies to track you across other websites.
1. What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. They help the site remember information about your visit — such as your preferred settings — so the platform works correctly and efficiently on your next visit.
Similar technologies include local storage, session tokens, and pixel tags. This policy covers all such technologies used by Talo Pay.
2. Cookies We Use
Required
Essential Cookies
These cookies are necessary for the Talo Pay platform to function. They enable secure sessions, protect against fraud, and allow Workers to access their registered accounts. Without these cookies, core features of the Platform cannot operate.
Examples: Session authentication tokens, CSRF protection tokens, security identifiers.
Optional
Performance & Analytics Cookies
These cookies provide anonymised information about how visitors use talo.tips — which pages are visited, how long users stay, and where errors occur. This helps us improve the platform's speed, reliability, and usability. No personally identifiable information is collected through these cookies.
Examples: Page load metrics, error tracking, session duration.
Optional
Preference Cookies
These cookies remember choices you make on the Platform, such as your language or display preferences, so you don't need to re-enter them on every visit.
Optional
Security & Fraud Prevention Cookies
Used by our payment service partners to detect and prevent fraudulent activity during the payment process. These help protect both Workers and Customers from unauthorised transactions.
3. What We Do Not Use Cookies For
- Storing payment card numbers, bank account details, or other sensitive financial data
- Tracking you across third-party websites for advertising purposes
- Building personal profiles for marketing without your consent
- Selling your browsing data to third parties
4. Managing Your Cookie Preferences
You can control non-essential cookies through your browser settings. Most browsers allow you to:
- View which cookies are stored on your device
- Delete existing cookies
- Block specific or all cookies from being set
Please note that disabling essential cookies will prevent key platform features from functioning correctly, including Worker login and payment processing. Refer to your browser's help documentation for instructions on managing cookies.
5. Third-Party Cookies
Some third-party services integrated into Talo Pay may set their own cookies for analytics, fraud detection, or payment processing. These providers are governed by their own privacy and cookie policies. Talo Pay does not control third-party cookies, but we only work with providers who meet our security and privacy standards.
Our payment service partners may place cookies during the checkout or payment process to ensure transaction security and compliance with PSP requirements.
6. Updates to This Policy
We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time as our services evolve. Any changes will be published at talo.tips/cookies.html. We encourage you to review this page periodically.
