This Cookie Policy explains how AgileSoko → Kenya's AI powered business execution network → uses cookies and similar technologies on our website. It should be read alongside our Privacy Policy, which covers how we handle personal data more broadly.
1 What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small text files placed on your device when you visit a website. They help the site remember information about your visit → like your preferences, search filters, or whether you've seen a particular message before → so your next visit can be faster and more useful.
Some cookies last only for your browsing session and disappear when you close your browser ("session cookies"). Others stay on your device for a set period so the site recognizes you on a later visit ("persistent cookies").
2 Cookies We Use
We use four categories of cookies on AgileSoko:
| Category | Purpose | Can be disabled? |
|---|---|---|
| Essential | Required for core functionality → keeping search, verification, and inquiry forms working correctly. | No → required for the site to function |
| Performance | Help us understand how visitors use AgileSoko and the AI search feature, so we can improve it. | Yes |
| Functional | Remember your preferences → such as filters, view settings, saved listings, and recent searches. | Yes, with reduced convenience |
| Marketing | Measure the effectiveness of promotional campaigns, where we run them. | Yes |
3 Third Party Cookies
Some cookies and similar technologies on AgileSoko are set by third party services we rely on to run the platform:
- Google Firebase → powers our database, authentication, and hosting infrastructure.
- Font and icon providers (Google Fonts, Font Awesome CDN) → deliver typography and icons used across the site.
- WhatsApp → if you click through to chat with us on WhatsApp, WhatsApp's own cookies and privacy practices apply once you're on their platform.
We don't control these third parties' cookies directly. Please refer to their own privacy and cookie policies for details on how they handle data.
4 AI Search & Session Data
When you use AgileSoko's AI search bar, your query text is sent to our AI provider to extract search criteria → this is a one time request, not a tracking cookie. However, we may use functional cookies or browser storage to remember your recent searches and saved listings locally, so they're available when you return to the site.
This local search history stays on your device and is not shared with other users.
5 Managing Cookies
You can control or delete cookies through your browser settings at any time. Most browsers let you view, block, or remove cookies on a site by site basis. Disabling non essential cookies won't stop you from browsing AgileSoko, but may affect convenience features like saved filters or remembered searches.
6 Changes to This Policy
We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time to reflect changes in the technologies or services we use. Material changes will be noted on this page, and continued use of AgileSoko after changes are posted constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.
