AERONOVA SYSTEMS SRL — COOKIE POLICY

Effective Date: [To be confirmed] | Last Updated: March 2026

SECTION 1 — WHAT ARE COOKIES?

Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. They allow the website to recognise your device and remember information about your visit, such as your login session or preferences, so you do not have to re-enter information each time.

SECTION 2 — COOKIES WE USE — STRICTLY NECESSARY ONLY

AeroNova uses strictly necessary cookies only. We do not use advertising cookies, behavioural tracking cookies, analytics cookies (such as Google Analytics), social media cookies, or any third-party marketing cookies of any kind.

The following strictly necessary cookies are set by the Platform:

• Cookie: __session (and related Clerk authentication cookies including __client_uat)
  Provider: Clerk, Inc. (authentication provider)
  Purpose: Maintains the authenticated user session. Required for login functionality and secure access to the Platform. Without this cookie, users cannot log in or maintain their authenticated session across page loads.
  Duration: Session (expires on browser close) or up to 7 days for persistent sessions.
• Cookie: aeronova_cookie_consent_v1
  Provider: AeroNova
  Purpose: Records whether the user has acknowledged the cookie notice. Prevents the consent banner from appearing on every page visit.
  Duration: 12 months.

SECTION 3 — WHY THESE COOKIES ARE STRICTLY NECESSARY

The cookies listed above are classified as strictly necessary under Article 5(3) of the ePrivacy Directive (Directive 2002/58/EC as amended by Directive 2009/136/EC) because they are essential for providing the service explicitly requested by the user — namely, secure authenticated access to the AeroNova Platform. Under the ePrivacy Directive, strictly necessary cookies are exempt from the consent requirement. We inform you of their use for transparency.

AeroNova does not use:

SECTION 6 — THIRD-PARTY COOKIES FROM CLERK
