What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files stored on your device when you visit a website. They are widely used to make websites work correctly and to provide basic functionality like keeping you logged in.

Wastrio uses essential cookies only. We do not use any tracking, analytics, advertising, or third-party marketing cookies.

Why Are These Cookies Essential?
Essential cookies are necessary for the website and application to function. Without these cookies, you would not be able to log in to your Wastrio account or stay authenticated while using the compliance platform. They cannot be switched off without breaking core functionality.
Under UK GDPR and the Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulations (PECR), essential cookies do not require your consent. However, we are required to inform you that they are in use — which is why this policy exists.
What We Don't Use
Wastrio does not use:
- Google Analytics or any other analytics platform
- Facebook Pixel or any social media tracking
- Advertising or retargeting cookies
- Any third-party tracking scripts
How to Control Cookies
You can control and delete cookies through your browser settings. Please note that disabling essential cookies will prevent you from logging in to the Wastrio application. For guidance on managing cookies in your browser, visit aboutcookies.org.
Changes to This Policy
If we introduce any non-essential cookies in the future (such as analytics), we will update this policy and implement a proper consent mechanism before doing so.
