2. How We Use Cookies
Padi uses cookies for a small number of straightforward purposes: to keep the website working properly, to remember your cookie preferences, and — where you agree — to understand which pages are most useful to visitors so we can improve them over time.
We do not use cookies to build detailed profiles of individual visitors, to track you across other websites, or to sell information to third parties.
3. Types of Cookies We Use

Analytics Cookies
Optional — your choiceIf you agree, these cookies help us understand which pages are visited most often, how visitors arrive at the site, and where improvements could make the experience clearer. All data collected is anonymous and aggregated; we do not use it to identify you individually.

Managing Cookies via Your Browser
You can also block or delete cookies through your browser settings. The steps vary by browser; search for "manage cookies" together with your browser name for step-by-step guidance. Please be aware that blocking essential cookies may affect how the site works.
Major browsers — Chrome, Firefox, Safari, Edge — all provide straightforward controls under their Privacy or Security settings.
5. Third-Party Cookies
Some cookies described in this policy are placed by third-party services — such as Google Analytics — rather than directly by Padi. These services have their own privacy policies, which we encourage you to read if you would like to understand how they handle data.
We only enable third-party cookies where you have given your agreement, and we use them for the limited purposes described in Section 3.
6. Updates to This Policy
We will update this Cookie Policy if we change how we use cookies on the site. The date at the top of this page will reflect when the policy was last revised.
If you have saved a preference and we introduce a new category of cookie, we will ask for your agreement through the cookie notice before placing the new cookie.
7. Questions
If anything in this policy is unclear or you would like to know more about how we handle your data, please get in touch — there is no question too small.
