1. Scope of this Cookies Page

This Cookies page applies to the online services and website of Tayfun Silver Wholesale. It should be read together with our Privacy Policy and Privacy & Security information.

By using our website, you agree that cookies may be stored and accessed as described here, in line with the settings of your browser or device.

2. What Are Cookies?

Cookies are small text files that are stored on your computer, tablet or mobile device when you visit a website. They allow the website to recognise your device and remember certain information about your visit (for example, language preferences or items in your cart).

Similar technologies, such as local storage or tracking pixels, may also be used to achieve similar purposes. In this page we refer to all of these collectively as “cookies”.

3. Why We Use Cookies

Tayfun Silver Wholesale uses cookies to support the operation of the wholesale platform and to help us understand how the website is used, in order to improve performance and security. Typical uses include:

• Remembering your session so that you remain logged in as you navigate between pages,
• Storing language and basic display preferences,
• Helping us to understand which sections of the site are most visited,
• Improving page loading times and overall user experience,
• Protecting the platform against misuse and fraudulent activity.

4. Types of Cookies We May Use

The cookies used on the Tayfun Silver Wholesale platform can generally be grouped into the following categories:

4.1. Strictly Necessary Cookies

These cookies are essential for the basic functioning of the website and cannot be switched off in our systems. They are usually set in response to actions you take, such as:

• Logging in to your trade account,
• Maintaining your session across secure pages,
• Managing basic security checks and load balancing.

4.2. Performance & Analytics Cookies

These cookies help us measure and improve the performance of the website by collecting aggregated information about how visitors interact with the platform (for example, which pages are most visited or if error messages occur).

The information is typically processed in a way that does not directly identify individual users, but it helps us optimise navigation, content and technical stability.

4.3. Functional Cookies

Functional cookies enable the website to provide personalised features and remember your preferences, such as:

• Language selection or region settings,
• Remembering certain form inputs for convenience during a session,
• Adjusting the display of pages based on your previous choices.

4.4. Security & Fraud Prevention Cookies

Certain cookies are used to support security, detect suspicious patterns and protect both the platform and its users. For example, they may:

• Help identify repeated failed login attempts,
• Support measures designed to prevent automated abuse or attacks,
• Assist with safe session management across the site.

5. First-Party & Third-Party Cookies

First-party cookies are set directly by Tayfun Silver Wholesale’s domains. They are mainly used for session management, preferences and security.

Third-party cookies may be set by external service providers whose tools are integrated into our website (for example analytics, embedded content or payment gateways). These providers have their own privacy and cookies policies, which we encourage you to review.

6. Cookie Duration (Session vs Persistent)

Cookies may have different lifespans:

• Session cookies are temporary and are deleted when you close your browser. They help with short-term actions, such as keeping you logged in while you browse.
• Persistent cookies remain for a longer period on your device or until you delete them. They can be used to remember preferences or recognise your browser when you return to the site.

• View which cookies are stored on your device,
• Delete existing cookies,
• Block all cookies or only certain types,

8. Cookies & Personal Data

Some cookies may be linked to information that can identify you, especially where you are a registered member and logged in to your trade account. In such cases, the data is treated in accordance with our Privacy Policy.

Other cookies collect aggregated or anonymised information for statistical and performance purposes, without directly identifying individual users.
