2. TYPES OF COOKIES WE USE
2.1 Essential Cookies (Always Active)

5.3 No sensitive profiling by cookies - Algorithm Bias Prevention
STATR does not intend to use cookies to infer sensitive personal characteristics such as race, religion, health status, political opinions, or similar protected characteristics. If any feature requires special-category or sensitive data, it should be handled separately under the Privacy Policy and only where lawful.
- Diverse Training Data: Ensure representative data across different demographics
- Regular Audits: Conduct periodic bias assessments and corrections
- Fairness Metrics: Monitor for discriminatory outcomes in matching
- Feedback Loops: Integrate user reports of unfair or biased recommendations
- Continuous Improvement: Regularly update algorithms based on fairness assessments
Any technologies used in connection with the Sponsored Services are used to count impressions and clicks so that we can provide Advertisers with aggregated, anonymised Campaign Statistics. These are used for measurement only, are categorised as analytics/performance (consent obtained where required), and are not used for cross-site tracking or to profile you for advertising.
