1. What Are Cookies?
Cookies and similar browser storage technologies (such as localStorage and sessionStorage) are small files placed on your device when you visit a website. They allow the platform to remember your browsing preferences, keep you securely authenticated, and ensure rapid page loading.
2. Categories of Cookies We Use
ReplaceRoots classifies cookies into three transparent categories:
- Strictly Necessary Cookies: Essential for platform security, user session authentication, CSRF attack prevention, and maintaining appointment flow integrity. These cannot be disabled.
- Analytics & Performance Cookies: Help us measure anonymous aggregated metrics, such as popular search queries, high-traffic city pages, and platform responsiveness. They do not store personally identifiable patient information.
- Marketing & Sponsored Cookies: Measure the efficiency of sponsored clinic listings and track attribution when a patient discovers a clinic profile.
3. Consent Management
When you first visit ReplaceRoots, you are presented with our DPDP Act-compliant cookie consent banner. You may customize your preferences at any time to reject non-essential analytics or marketing telemetry without impacting your ability to browse clinics, compare implant costs, or book appointments.
4. Managing Browser Settings
In addition to our on-site consent controls, you can modify your browser settings to block or delete cookies. Please note that disabling strictly necessary cookies may prevent secure account logins and form submissions.
