1. What are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files that are placed on your device (computer, tablet, or mobile phone) when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites work correctly, to improve the user experience, and — in some cases — to provide information to the owners of the website about how users interact with their content.
Cookies can be "session cookies" (which expire when you close your browser) or "persistent cookies" (which remain on your device for a set period or until you delete them).
2. Our Use of Cookies
Zorocad.info uses only essential cookies that are strictly necessary for the basic functionality and security of the website. We do not use advertising cookies, targeting cookies, performance tracking cookies, or any cookies that collect personal data for commercial purposes.
Our approach to cookies reflects the minimal commercial footprint of this educational resource. We believe users should only have cookies placed on their device for purposes that are genuinely required for the website to function.
