**TRADEBUILDER HQ LLC**

**APPLICATION COOKIE POLICY**

*admin.tradebuilderhq.com*

This Application Cookie Policy explains how TradeBuilder HQ LLC ("Company," "we," "us," and "our") uses cookies on our web application at https://admin.tradebuilderhq.com (the "Application"). It supplements our Privacy Policy, which describes how we handle personal information more broadly.

**Scope of this policy:** This policy covers only our application at admin.tradebuilderhq.com. Our marketing website at tradebuilderhq.com has a separate Cookie Policy, which describes the analytics and advertising cookies used there.

## **WHAT COOKIES WE USE ON THE APPLICATION**

The Application uses a single, strictly necessary first-party cookie. It is essential to provide functionality you request — signing in and completing multi-step forms — and is not used for analytics, advertising, or tracking. Because it is strictly necessary, it does not require prior consent, though it is disclosed here for transparency.

| **Name** | **Purpose** | **Provider** | **Type** | **Expires** |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| **session** | Maintains signed-in state for the client portal and admin panel and preserves multi-step form progress. Strictly necessary. | admin.tradebuilderhq.com (first party) | http_cookie (signed, HttpOnly, Secure, SameSite=Lax) | 7 days |

## **WHAT WE DO NOT USE ON THE APPLICATION**

On the Application, we do not run:

- analytics cookies or analytics services (such as Google Analytics);
- tag management (such as Google Tag Manager);
- advertising, retargeting, or conversion-tracking technologies (such as the Meta Pixel or Google Ads tags); or
- any third-party tracking cookies.

We maintain a first-party product-analytics event log to understand how the Application is used; by design, that log does not contain email addresses, IP addresses, or browser user-agent strings, and it does not rely on advertising or third-party cookies. If we introduce any non-essential cookie or tracking technology on the Application in the future, we will present a consent mechanism on the Application and update this policy before doing so.

## **HOW TO CONTROL COOKIES**

Because the Application uses only a strictly necessary cookie, there is no consent banner on the Application. You can still control or delete cookies through your browser settings; however, blocking the session cookie will prevent you from signing in and using the Application. We also honor recognized universal opt-out preference signals, such as Global Privacy Control (GPC), as described in our Privacy Policy, although the Application does not currently use any technologies to which such a signal would apply.

## **RELATED POLICIES**

This policy should be read together with our Privacy Policy and our Cookie Policy for the marketing website at tradebuilderhq.com. Our Privacy Policy describes how we handle personal information across both our marketing website and this Application.

## **UPDATES AND CONTACT**

We may update this Application Cookie Policy from time to time to reflect changes to the cookies we use or for operational, legal, or regulatory reasons. The date below indicates when it was last updated. Questions may be directed to privacy@tradebuilderhq.com, or by post to TradeBuilder HQ LLC, 8401 Mayland Dr, Ste A, Richmond, VA 23294, United States.
