Cookie Policy

We believe in being clear and open about how we collect and use data related to you. In the spirit of transparency, this Cookie Policy provides detailed information about how and when we use cookies.

What are cookies and why do we use them?

Like most websites, Bizztor.com uses cookies to collect information. Cookies are small data files placed on your computer or other devices (such as smartphones or tablets) as you browse this website. They are used to remember when your computer or device accesses our websites.

How long do they last?

Cookies will remain on your computer or mobile device for different periods of time. Some cookies, called session cookies, only exist when your browser is open and are automatically deleted when you close your browser or quit the app. Other cookies are persistent, meaning they stay on your device after your browser or app is closed, and can be used later by websites or apps to recognize your computer when you return.
