1. Introduction
This Cookie Policy explains how Kohar Innovation Limited ("we," "us," or "our") uses cookies and similar tracking technologies on startwithfranchise.ca (the "Platform"). This policy should be read alongside our Privacy Policy, which provides further detail on how we handle your personal information.
2. What Are Cookies
Cookies are small text files stored on your device (computer, tablet, or mobile phone) when you visit a website. They help the website recognize your device and remember information about your visit, such as your preferences and login status. We also use localStorage, a browser-based storage mechanism that functions similarly to cookies.

Functional Cookies
These cookies and localStorage entries remember your preferences and choices to enhance your experience. This includes saved franchise listings, franchise matching quiz results, business portal session data, and display preferences. These are stored locally in your browser using localStorage.

Analytics Cookies
These cookies help Kohar Innovation Limited understand how visitors interact with the Platform by collecting information about pages visited, time spent on pages, navigation paths, and other anonymous usage data. This information is used to improve the Platform and provide a better user experience. Analytics data is collected in aggregate and does not personally identify you.
