COOKIE POLICY

Last updated: 27 September 2026

1. INTRODUCTION

This Cookie Policy explains how Peryon Technologies Limited ("Peryon", "we", "us", or "our") uses cookies and similar technologies in connection with pendrive.zip (the "Service").

The Service is operated by:

Peryon Technologies Limited

BRN: 77500574

146 Tung Choi Street

Mongkok, KLN

Hong Kong

Email: hello@peryontechnologies.com

This Cookie Policy should be read together with our Privacy Policy.

2. WHAT ARE COOKIES?

Cookies are small text files or pieces of data that websites may store on your device when you visit them.

Cookies can be used for purposes such as maintaining a session, remembering preferences, providing security functionality or understanding how a service is used.

Similar technologies may include browser local storage, session storage and other mechanisms that allow a website to store or retrieve limited information on a user's device.

In this Policy, references to "cookies" may also include similar browser-storage technologies where appropriate.

3. HOW PENDRIVE.ZIP USES COOKIES

pendrive.zip is designed to minimise unnecessary tracking.

We may use cookies or similar technologies where reasonably necessary to:

maintain temporary transfer sessions;
remember authenticated access to a transfer room;
maintain registered-user sessions;
provide account authentication;
protect the Service against unauthorised access;
prevent abuse;
enforce security and rate limits;
maintain essential user preferences;
support paid subscription functionality; and
ensure that the Service functions correctly.

We aim to use only the minimum browser storage reasonably necessary to provide and secure the Service.

4. STRICTLY NECESSARY COOKIES

Strictly necessary cookies or similar technologies are required for the Service to function correctly or securely.

These may be used for purposes such as:

authentication;
maintaining login sessions;
maintaining temporary transfer sessions;
remembering authorised access to a transfer room;
security;
fraud and abuse prevention;
load balancing;
maintaining essential Service state; and
processing user-requested functionality.

Because these technologies are necessary to provide functionality requested by the user or to maintain the security of the Service, they may not require consent in jurisdictions where applicable law provides an exemption for strictly necessary technologies.

Blocking these technologies through your browser may cause parts of pendrive.zip to stop working correctly.

5. SUPABASE

We use Supabase as part of the backend infrastructure for pendrive.zip.

Supabase may support functionality including:

authentication;
session management;
database functionality;
temporary file storage;
realtime functionality; and
other backend services.

Where Supabase authentication or related functionality uses cookies, local storage or similar browser technologies, those technologies may be necessary to maintain authentication or Service functionality.

Information relating to these technologies is handled in accordance with our Privacy Policy and the applicable arrangements with Supabase.

6. STRIPE

We use Stripe to process payments and manage paid subscriptions.

When you interact with payment or subscription functionality, Stripe may use cookies or similar technologies for purposes including:

processing payments;
fraud detection and prevention;
authentication;
security;
payment-session functionality; and
regulatory compliance.

Some Stripe technologies may be necessary to securely process a payment requested by you.

Stripe may process information in accordance with its own privacy and cookie practices.

Peryon Technologies Limited does not control all cookies or similar technologies that Stripe may use on Stripe-hosted payment pages or other Stripe-controlled environments.

7. ANALYTICS

pendrive.zip may collect privacy-conscious usage statistics to help us understand and improve the Service.

These statistics may include information such as:

number of transfer rooms created;
number of files uploaded;
number of downloads;
successful transfers;
transfer duration;
broad file categories;
file sizes;
browser category;
operating-system category;
device category;
storage usage; and
bandwidth usage.

Where reasonably possible, we collect analytics server-side or in an aggregated or pseudonymised form without using advertising identifiers or cross-site tracking.

We do not currently use cookies for behavioural advertising or cross-site advertising profiling.

If we introduce analytics technologies that require consent under applicable law, we will obtain the required consent before activating them.

8. ADVERTISING AND MARKETING COOKIES

We do not currently use pendrive.zip to place third-party behavioural advertising cookies or tracking technologies for cross-site advertising.

We do not currently use services such as advertising pixels for the purpose of tracking users across unrelated websites for targeted advertising.

If this changes in the future, we will update this Cookie Policy and implement any consent mechanism required by applicable law before using such technologies.

9. FUNCTIONAL COOKIES AND PREFERENCES

We may use limited browser storage to remember settings or preferences that improve the functionality of pendrive.zip.

Examples may include:

interface preferences;
previously selected Service settings;
temporary state required to complete a transfer; and
other user-requested preferences.

Where a preference technology is not strictly necessary and applicable law requires consent, we will obtain consent before using it.

10. LOCAL STORAGE AND SESSION STORAGE

In addition to traditional cookies, pendrive.zip may use browser local storage or session storage.

These technologies may be used to:

maintain temporary application state;
maintain or restore a session;
remember temporary room access;
support authentication;
prevent unnecessary repeated authentication; and
provide other essential application functionality.

We do not use local storage as a mechanism for creating hidden advertising profiles.

Sensitive credentials such as plaintext PINs, payment-card details or administrative passwords should not be stored in browser local storage by the Service.

11. COOKIE RETENTION

Different cookies and browser-storage items may have different lifetimes.

Some may exist only for the duration of your browser session.

Others may remain for a limited period to maintain authentication, security or user preferences.

We aim not to retain browser identifiers longer than reasonably necessary for the purpose for which they are used.

Logging out of a registered account may remove or invalidate certain authentication information, although some security or preference information may remain for a limited period where appropriate.

12. MANAGING COOKIES

Most browsers allow you to view, delete or block cookies and other website data through browser settings.

You may choose to block or delete cookies used by pendrive.zip.

However, because some cookies and similar technologies are necessary for authentication, transfer-room access, security and other core functionality, blocking them may prevent parts of the Service from functioning correctly.

Where pendrive.zip uses non-essential cookies that require consent, we will provide an appropriate mechanism for you to accept, reject or manage those technologies.

13. DO WE USE A COOKIE CONSENT BANNER?

Where pendrive.zip uses only cookies or similar technologies that are strictly necessary to provide a Service explicitly requested by the user, we may not display a consent banner where applicable law does not require consent for those technologies.

If we introduce non-essential analytics, advertising, marketing or other technologies that require consent, we will implement an appropriate consent mechanism before those technologies are activated.

A user's refusal of optional cookies will not prevent access to core pendrive.zip functionality unless the relevant technology is genuinely necessary to provide a requested feature.

14. CHANGES TO THIS COOKIE POLICY

We may update this Cookie Policy as pendrive.zip develops or as the technologies used by the Service change.

For example, we may update this Policy if we:

introduce new Service functionality;
change authentication technology;
introduce new analytics tools;
add new payment functionality;
change infrastructure providers; or
introduce optional advertising or marketing technologies.

The current version will be published on pendrive.zip together with the date on which it was last updated.

Where required by applicable law, we will obtain appropriate consent before introducing new non-essential cookies or similar technologies.
